So that would be about 12am for me, right?

Yes.  12 AM, April 31st. 

Everyone else should have results by the 15th.

bingle.joy: Flaming Row- Unearth The Truth

Very impressive.  There were some cool musical moments, especially that one unison about halfway through, and the bridge near the end.  It makes me curious as to the rest of the story surrounding it and how that plays out. 

8

Mason Dixon Line: Enchant- Paint The Picture

Those bastards!  They done stole that keyboard line from Xanadu!  NO POINTS FOR YOU! 











Nah, I couldn't do that.  I enjoyed that tune.  It was one of those fun, uplifting prog songs, you know. It's very poppy and sticks to the ear. 

8

noog: Streetlight Manifesto- Somewhere in the Between

Really, man?  Really?  This? 

It is the bee's knees!  It's like a Queen song, except it's ska and there's some good jazz bits thrown around as well.  And I dig that.  Like, really, you'd think someone'd tell me about this shit.  You, man, are the man. 

10

káridashian: 65daysofstatic- Radio Protector

More post rock!  Yeahs!  Really, this is another good 'un from ya!  What's really neat is that they've got this super-frantic sound to them.  I mean, like, usually this sorta stuff is chill-out music, but not these guys!  This is music for getting pumped up!  Great variety of textures; the thing's a pleasure to hear the various layers come in and out. 

9

starburns: The Who- Doctor Jimmy

Honestly, that could be the best Who song I've heard.  It had a crapton of veracity in its performance, not to mention the fact that it's got a memorable tune and a rather cool story being told.  From what Alex here told me, it's right around the climax of the album, and I believe it.  There's a real sense of 'woah', ya know?

10

Manspider: Touchstone- When Shadows Fall

We've got some fun, poppy, prog-metal here.  It's got a nice fast section, some good vocals, and gets real good once it slows down.  Nothing super mind-blowing, but a good time. 

7

Gorille: Tallest Man On Earth- The Dreamer

I'm all for some good folk, you know, some good poetry with a well-thought-out melody.  Sounds like this guy can do some good folk, eh?  The tune's real memorable and sounds like he means it.  I dig it. 

8

obscure: Star One - Intergalactic Space Crusaders

This is a real good fun metal tune.  How can I say no to a solid throwback to 80s metal, you know?  Not to mention that it's an ear worm.  You can tell the creators must have had a hell of a time.  I could totally see this having had been a hit single in the late 80s. 

8

LieLolTehWaiterMan: Maudlin of the Well- Rose Quartz Turning To Glass

Great selection here!  The first few minutes are some real good modern-classical sounding stuff.  I could do without the weird crying section, but the last couple minutes where it's sounding all Canturbury are neato.

Right on, man.  It's probably the best Who song I've heard too, and I've heard them all, millions of times.  When you said you didn't know Quadrophenia, I did an internal "booyah!!!".  At least now you know what album you can spend some of that thirty bucks on. ;)



Do we have a theme for round six?  No rush, just curious.

To Lltwm: Actually, I got booted off Of my main PC before I could finish your writeup.  You got a 9.

To all: Round 6 is:

Six Deadly Sins!

Basically, you will get assigned (by PM) a random sin.

Send me a song that bleeds that sin from every conceivable orifice, among others!

Also, you can get a random bonus if you can correctly guess this:

As you probably know, there are actually seven sins, but I'm only using a pool of six, because it's round six and I wanted to use the sin theme with the evil round number.

Try and guess which sin I have excluded!

(Send me your guess with your song)

Yes.

obscure: Chevelle- Envy

Colour me impressed.  I'd heard of Chevelle through people bitching about post-grunge and such, but this don't sound like no bland butt-rock.  It stays pretty laid back until the end or so, which I say works really well for building up the tension.  You can feel the sense of want.  Catchy, as well.

8

Lie Low The 'bating Man: Hatfield & The North- Let's Eat (Real Soon)

Canturbury Scene, eh?  Not too shabby, you prog-ster.  You've brought be a real swell piece of 60s pop, there.  With a slightly-off jazzy touch to it.  The lyrics about 'eating' put a grin on my face. 

8

starburns: Sammy Hagar- Mas Tequila

Sounds a lot like Van Halen.  Which I guess would make sense, considering he was their face for some time.  Totally poppy and all bout that gluttony for the drink.  A party rock anthem here. 

7

DTVTechnoremix: Between The Buried And Me- Informal Gluttony

I'm not the sort who listens to loads and loads of extreme metal, but that didn't prevent me from really enjoying this track.  After really enjoying that initial 'Middle Eastern' sounding intro, the main death-metal(?) section caught me by surprise, but positively.  The majority of that track, you know, was real pummeling, aside from the couple softer, chorus-like sections.  Real cool, non-standard extreme metal, overall.  I can see why you dig this and I dig it as well.

10

George Foreman Gorille85: CunninLynguists- Embers

Hip hop that I actually rather enjoyed?  Must be 2012.  It really does fit the description of 'poetry to a rhythm'.  The lyrics really provided some cool imagery and the backing track added to them to create a cool pop tune.  Wasn't expecting to enjoy underground hip hop that much.

8

ManSpider: Bullet For My Valentine- Fever

Seems to have a lot of the energy and poppiness of metalcore, but lacks a dumb breakdown.  Which works for it; keeps things nice and concise.  You know, this stuff is all about being fast stuff to mosh and bang to and it works. 

8

kári: Eluvium- Prelude For Time Feelers

This really does seem to fill that definition of sloth you described in your PM.  It seems rather sad and aimless, just continuing on it its way.  It's a beauty, nonetheless.  Something I could meditate to. 

9

noog: Mastodon- Black Tongue

Heavy effing metal, right there!  That shit is a pounder.  Moves at a good clip, the drumming is way-over-the-top, and overall, it sounds like it could be the soundtrack to a violent video game. 

9

jim.kong: Frameshifter- Human Grain

Good and catchy.  Not quite proggy, not quite industrial.  The lyrics and concept I really dug.

7

Also, about the guessing game, the sin I excluded from the drawing pool was Greed!  Also, though Pride was in the drawing pool, the random number generator I used to pick your sins didn't land on Pride's number, so that could have sorta counted.  Except no one guessed that one.

Gorille guessed Greed, though, and he gets 5 extra points! 

Wankings:

káre bare- 55
Blackman- 53
Gorille- 53
The Champ- 52
noog- 51
starburns- 51
Kim Bong- 49
obscure- 47
Manspider- 46

Round 7 is:

The b-side's even better!

Send me a track that's

A: The b-side on a single
B: An outtake
C: A track made specifically for a film or other media
ect.

Basically any non-album track that's a bit of a rarity.

Sent. One of the forums most popular bands, but I've never seen ya mention them, so I'm guessing here.
