Since it's my first time playing that game then I'll ask a stupid question; does the song have to be new?
I wouldn't want somebody with 18 kids to mow my damn lawn, based on a longstanding bias I have against crazy fucks.

It has to be new to me.  There is a fairly incomplete list of my stuff on my last.fm page https://www.last.fm/user/mrouser

I prefer PM's but if you send me an e-mail make sure it's obvious who you are (ytserush - I'm looking at you)

Hopefully I can start listening tomorrow, but I will say that one person got one of the ten bands that awards a bullet reduction, assuming they get through the slaughter and into round 3.

Hai!

I'm just waiting on Elite.  Since there is an even number of entries now, if his is in the top half it gets added, but if it is in the bottom half, someone who I expected to do well is going to get saved.

Just to have a little more fun with this, I'm writing this as a short story, and I have the first chapter written, and can be quickly editted if Elite or someone else submits a song.  I like the death I have for the last person dead, but unfortunately it only works if they die, and I honestly would rather see this person advance because I can always kill them the same way in round 2 if they don't make it :)  Also I like this person's taste in music, so I don't want them to die yet.

I'm sorry, I haven't been able to check my email or the forums for the past couple of days, so haven't sent mine yet. Will do within the hour, if that's not too late.
Hey dude slow the fuck down so we can finish together at the same time.  :biggrin:

From his private island, the evil mad scientist DTVT issues a challenge to the world of DTF.

"I demand more music for my collection.  Come forth brave adventures and glory and praise will be poured upon the head of the victor, and your name will be praised across the lands of DTF.  However, many of you will fail and die, as to reach me, you must first get past my Transatlantic Atomic Gatling Gun."

Undaunted, 29 brave adventurers took up arms and music to sate the evil mastermind.  One wretched soul, known as "The Nick", however rebuffed this challenge, and attempted to flee.  The brave adventurers of DTF would have none of this cowardice, and on the journey to DTVT's island cast him off in the Sea of the Banned, where such monsters known as the "Quadrochosis", "Two Point Tingle", "Wrath", "Nathanlol", and a being so horrific that even its name is unpronouceable, the "Zxlkho", were to feast upon The Nick.

Upon reaching land, the brave adventurers of DTF charged the island, while a maniacal DTVT rained hell fire down upon them with his Atomic Gatling Gun while listening to "The Whirlwind".  Shortly after landfall, the adventurer known as Ravenheart found a secret underground passage that leads to the tower.  Knowing that secret passages were safer than braving the Atomic Gatling Gun, Orcus116 quickly followed Ravenheart.

The remaining adventurers stormed the tower, and quickly Lateralus88, Antigoon, and Dethklok09 were dispatched in a rain of bullets so fierce that their corpses caught fire from the friction of the bullets ripping through their skin.  At this point lonestar attempted to use the smoldering corpses to cook bacon to calm the diabolical DTVT, but several consecutive headshots put and end to his plan.  Ariich tried his smarmy British charms and proclaimed, "You like The Dear Hunter, so you'll probably like this ba-" and was annihilated in a swarm of metal projectiles.  MK Ultra tried to use ariich as a human shield, but he was dispatched as the hellfire of bullets turned both of them into human swiss cheese.  Gorille85, The Voxyn, 73109, and Xanthul all tried to outflank the storm of bullets, but were mowed down in one wide sweep.  Elite fell into a Toxik trap and fared no better than this:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjEdLuqK1RQ   Kingshmegland tried to proclaim his sovereignty over DTVT's island, but that made him a standing target that was easily dispatched.  As the remaining adventurers approached the outer wall which provided shelter from the Atomic Gatling Gun, Jamesman decided to stop to post lols about the dead people, but didn't think to reach shelter before posting, and was picked off just outside of the inner range.

Results:
(bands with a * denote one of the ten bands I was hoping to get in this roulette and have earned a bullet reduction)

Gaining a pass to round 3:

Ravenheart:  Dan Swano - Add Reality - This song rocked my world.  If this was a race, Ravenheart lapped the field with this song.  After my second listen, I went online and tried to track down the album.  As only used copies were available and going at $20 + shipping, I settled for the mp3 download at amazon.com, but I definitely want a physical copy of this album.  This was the perfect example of how to use growling in a song (and the whole album, damn is it a good album).

Orcus116:  Russian Circles - 309 - I got to check these guys out too.

Advancing to Round 2:

Yorost:  Journey - Of A Lifetime - I knew their pre-Perry days were more progressive, and this song is giving me the proper motivation to check out those albums.
Nekov:  Iluvitar - In The Eye
The King In Crimson: Leprous* - Forced Entry
Obscure:  Lost in Thought - Beyond The Flames
LLTWM:  Psychotic Waltz - And The Devil Cried
Kari:  And So I Watch You From Afar - Set Guitars To Kill
ytserush:  Steve Vai - Attitude Song
Iarwain:  Akercocke - Leviathan
YtseBitsySpider:  Unearth - Arise The War Cry
Ultimetalhead:  The Quill - Keep The Circle Whole
jingle.boy:  Steel Protector - The Last Chapter
Metty:  Rammstein - Mein Land - I used to have their first two albums.  I might have to try to dig them up.
wolfking:  Voyager - The Meaning of I
Sigz:  Dog Fashion Disco* - 100 Suicides

Dead:

Jamesman:  HORSE the band - Cutsman - I like this song a lot more than I thought I would based on the description you sent me.  Last one out unfortunately.
Elite:  Toxic - Shotgun Logic - Another song I liked, just not as much as the ones that made the cut.
Kingshmegland:  I Mother Earth - Hell & Malfunction
73109:  A Pale Horse Named Death - Die Alone
Xanthul:  The Mars Volta - Roulette Dares
The Voxyn:  Radiohead - True Love Waits
Gorille85:  Sleepytime Gorilla Museum - Sleep is Wrong
lonestar:  The Plimsouls - The Oldest Story in the World
ariich:  Manchester Orchestra - Pale Black Eye - I love TDH, but I couldn't get into this song or "Simple Math", which I heard previously.  I guess TDH is all I need in this area.
MK Ultra:  Beardfish - Cashflow - Beardfish and Gungfly just don't click at all for me.
Lateralus88:  Psychostick - Shower
dethklok09:  Brand New - You Don't Know
Antigoon:  The Black Keys - Lonely Boy

For those of you in round 2, submissions are due Thursday.

Ravenheart and Orcus, as to not give you a dissadvantage of missing a round, PM me the name of a band if you would like to take a stab at the 8 remaining artists.  You don't need to pick a song, or even use the band in a future round, jsut a chance to earn a bullet reduction.

I liked about half of the songs that didn't make it.  Your song just lacked punch and had this droning I didn't really get into.

I hate that people are into Dog Fashion Disco now. I used to be the one person (aside from Harry) who could use them in a roulette. :(

Glad you liked my song. Time to find something even better.

Every word of this.  I played it pretty safe too.  Now time to get a little risky, and provide a band I hope/think is one of the 10 magic bands.  Sending momentarily.
