Great you liked the Pendragon track Jirpo, but be warned, that's not their usual style of song.  Definitely check out Pure though, it's amazing.

Interesting criteria for Round 2.  Realistically, I won't be able to send something for another 24 hours.
Everyone else, except Wolfking is wrong.

Sorry, I'll put them up within 24 hours. I've got a pretty big test tomorrow so no time tonight... but after that I will be relatively free for a few weeks so the roulette will run fast after this round.

All good mate, you need to ace your test.

Studying instead of running the roulette? Who do you think you are?


Nah, as wolf said, ace that test. Good luck  :tup

damnit!! just wrote it all up then closed the window by accident... sorry but I can't be bothered writing as much as the first time so the writeups are a bit short :p



Round 2

Jingle - In an Empty Room
Good vocals and a pretty catchy chorus, it really sounded like the vocalist was giving it his all particularly in the second half of the song. Nice submission but didn't really move me that much to be honest.
4 Points

Reaper - Kaki King - Joi
Great acoustic song, loved the part around 3 min from memory where it sped up and picked up in intensity before fading back down. However I found my attention wandering a couple of times.
4 Points

Gorille - Bright Eyes - Waste of Paint
I'd heard of these guys before so I was pretty excited to see you sent me a song by them. But to be honest I found it a bit disappointing. The acoustic work was good but personally I didn't really like the vocals which put me off a bit from the song. The lyrics told a deep and touching story but I didn't really like the way in which they were written. I can see how it would make someone feel alone though.
3 Points

Kari - Eluvium - Prelude for Time Feelers
Another awesome instrumental song but I preferred this one to Reapers. I found it did create quite a lonesome atmosphere, it just built up slowly and kept me hooked the whole way till its sudden ending.
6 Points

Wolfking - Jorn Lande - Crying
Nice submission, loved the singers voice. You can definitely feel he was giving it all in this one. Quite a sad song too.
5 Points

Nekov - King Crimson - Epitaph
I must admit I'd never heard King Crimson so I was very excited considering how seminal they are in the prog scene. It definitely lived up! Awesome, gloomy, sad song, that ending just had me captured. Definitely adhered to the contents of the round. Awesome submission!
7 Points


Elite - Damien Rice - Delicate
Very soft, stripped down touching song. I don't really know what else to write, but I  liked it. Thanks!
5 Points

Raven - Anathema - Anyone, Anywhere
Once again an amazing song! I have WHBHW and WS so I was very excited to hear this. And it was just amazing, it had me captured from the beginning. Those keys and that huge distortion kick in are incredible! This is excatly what I was looking for in this round, very cold and desolate feeling. Perfect choice!
9 Points



Overall standings:
Ravenheart - 17
Wolfking - 13
Kari - 12
Nekov - 11
Reaper - 10
Elite - 10
Gorille - 9
Jingle - 7

Thanks again guys! Can't wait to check some of this stuff out.


For my 3rd round I want something that I can listen to and it just makes me think everything is right with the world! For example, if I come out of a test/presentation/date etc that went really well I can just listen to and feel on top of the world! Once again very specific round so I will be nice with the marking.

No way, Epitaph is one of my favourite songs, I should have sent that :P
Also, what did Raven send? I can see it's something from Anathema, but you didn't specify the song.

Regarding Round 2 submissions ...

This is quite a specific round so I will be quite lenient

*only 3 songs scored higher than 5*

Once again very specific round so I will be nice with the marking.

I'm taking the "I'll send whatever the fuck I feel like deal with it" approach to this roulette.

:( Sorry, but everyone is entitled to their opinion and I personally just didn't like it. I don't HAVE to love everything everyone sends me. Theres no need to get all worked up :)

Also I think you may as well use the full end of the spectrum in terms of scores, no point having a 0-10 scale and giving everyone above 5 :p
