Yay!  Glad to see I didn't fail as badly as I did in Round 1.

Hmm....something weird....I'll have to give it a little more thought.

Was sick all day, I'll listen to the songs tomorrow (today), and have the results up by Sunday.

I'm only gonna do five rounds, might do a final round with the top two.

Alright, I'll post up my results before I go to sleep tonight


But, the write ups are gonna be very short this round and I apologize for that. I've been really run down/busy lately, mostly because my summer classes are coming to an end and I have a bunch of tests and projects I need to do due Tuesday. So I haven't been feeling too great lately, and I could push this off until later, but I figured this round took long enough so I might as well just post what I have for now. Again, the write ups are a bit short this round, but I'm hoping to go back to "normal" ones next round. Didn't help that a lot of these songs were so weird that I just didn't really know how to describe them other than "weird"... in a good way of course. :lol Also I'm starting my job this week so that's gonna take away a lot of time as well... hoping to finish this asap so others can get started on their's.

Round 3. Send me something you would describe as "weird". I'd like something really out there, but please send something that you actually find enjoyable... not just a recording of someone taking a shit or something please. :lol

Well yeah, it's a good thing the songs are weird since that's what I wanted.  :biggrin: My mind is just so blown out that I can't think of many adjectives other than weird right now, so I'm keeping the reviews really short in order to avoid having the same one for each song.  :lol



ROUND 3 RESULTS:
6 Points:
Bersarin Quartett - St. Petersburg (antigoon)

Very beautiful, ambient piece. Um... yeah :hat This is definitely the kind of music I can put to good use. :D Simple and minimalistic, which makes it perfect for just spacing out. I've been looking for music like this so I will definitely be checking out more.


5 Points:
Primus - Tommy the Cat (kings)

Primus is obviously a band I have heard of, but I've really only heard one or two of their songs before. Nonetheless, I still had a great respect for Claypool. This song kicked ass! As a bassist, I absolutely ate up the funky bass all throughout the track. The music was so out there, in a good way!

Bjork - Submarine (sonatafanica)
Well... that was certainly a creepy intro. :lol I never had heard Bjork before, so again this was an artist I was really looking forward to hearing. Really cool song, loved that it was acapella!


4 Points:
Polkadot Cadaver - Bring Me The Head of Andy Warhol (skydivingninja)

When I picked the round theme, this was the band I was really hoping to get. I never listened to them, but I've seen people raving about them on DTF.

Demians - Porcelain (Quad)
Very cool laid back, atmospheric track. Never heard of this band before. The intro sounded great with headphones, as did the whole song really!

Return to Forever - Medieval Overture (MasterShakezula)
My friend showed me a couple of RTF songs before... great band! Chick Corea is awesome. That part around 3:00 is so good! The ending was incredible too


3 Points:
Dog Fashion Disco - Acid Memoirs (acidrainlte)

Well... can relate. :lol Love the change around 1:35. Never knew this band was the predescor to Polkadot Cadaver. I liked it, but not as much as PC.

Diablo Swing Orchestra - A Tap Dancer's Dilemma (jsem)
That bassline is sick! The weirdest thing about the song was probably the vocals, which I wasn't a huge fan of. However, the music undernath it was phenomenal. 4:25 <3


2 Points:
Spock's Beard - The Light (H)

I like Neal Morse, but one thing that bugs me about his music is he often seems to make a song drag on a bit too long. I liked the music but I felt it would have been just as good, if not better, if it was a couple minutes shorter. Also I hope its just the copy you sent me, but there is some SERIOUS distortion in there, it actually hurt my ears it was so bad. :lol


1 Point:
System of a Down - A E I O U (dethklok)

I actually heard this song before, but didn't realize it until I started listening. Anyways, not a huge SOAD fan. :P It certainly was weird, but not a kind of weird that I got enjoyment out of.

ROUND 4: Send me something with great vocals. Also, just a heads up that the next (and final round) after this will be a free submission round.

Current standings:
sonata: 5 5 5 = 15
sdn: 4 6 4 = 14
antigoon: 3 4 6 = 13
kings: 6 1 5 = 12
quad: 3 4 4 = 11
master: 4 3 4 = 11
acidrain: 4 3 3 = 10
jsem: 5 2 3 = 10
h: 2 5 2 = 9
dethklok: 1 4 1 = 6

I was in the middle of listening to Gorillaz, but now I must switch to some SOAD. Yes indeed, the ending to Sugar is a fun one with the speed.

C'mon Z, how can you hate SOAD!  :laugh:

Well I didn't mean the ending but the ending to the second verse. But you might have understood anyway and now I just feel crazy.

I hope the bad quality of the link I gave you didn't impede on my score. :(

Gonna have to think hard about a really good vocalist.  Most of the vocalists I know are either annoyingly operatic (James LaBrie, Russell Allen, Geoff Tate...) or artisticly droll (Steven Wilson, Kevin Moore...).

and...
I hope the bad quality of the link I gave you didn't impede on my score. :(

No, it didn't, I just felt the song went on a bit too long. I've kind of felt that way for most of the longer NM songs I've heard, be it Spock's Beard or Transatlantic. His short songs are beautiful though.
