Lonestar's Death Island Roulette- And the winner is.....

[Crow]

i'm sorry that the hirsch effekt is just the best

i'm sorry that the hirsch effekt is just the best

I mean I'm totally with you, even if I wasn't completely bowled over by them at first. They're becoming my favourite band of the last half of 2017

This would be like me coming in to your Roulette claiming that Kamelot is "just the best"

Know your audience and read the room kids.

[Crow]

i mean, the faust albums are great? i love the black halo especially, i've sent stuff off it in roulettes before

Yea, I love Kamelot and The Hirsch Effekt. It's plausible to love both 

Scar actually sent Kamelot in my roulette and I loved the song he sent more than the Hirsch Effekt song Parama sent 

[jingle.boy]

Ok... bad example.  I could've/should've said Poison.

i mean, if you like poison you have a problem of your own

Song submitted. Sorry for any wait, folks.

[lonestar]

Got it


Final round one submissions:

Elite- Caligula's Horse- Marigold
Evermind- Leprous- The Cloak
Train of Naught- Ihsahn - Regen
King- Bent Knee- Leak Water
Tomislav95- The Pineapple Theif- In Exile
jingle.boy- The Night Flight Orchestra- Space Whisperer
TAC- Witherfall- What Are We Dying For
Parama- The Hirsch Effect- Irrath
Tyrias- Pure Reason Revolution- Bullitts Dominae
Orcus- Queens of the Stone Age- Feet Don't Fail Me


And heck, while we're still awake, let's let someone wake up to the feeling of safety, of knowing they ran the gauntlet to round two. I think I have a clear winner for this round already, but the cut is gonna take a few more spins.

One song I know will be safe (though not the winner) is In Exile by The Pineapple Theif. A solid prog track, well constructed though a bit on the predictable side. Overall a worthy submission by a band that I knew would deliver. Tomislav, you my friend are hereby safe for round one. Feel free to talk shit and mock the other guys...

[Tomislav95]

Oh great
I got The Hirsch Effekt in my roulette and it was awful. I think I could get into them but that EP as a whole was too metal even for me

[Crow]

to be fair i sent you ira, not irrath
ira is loud and dissonant and probably their heaviest track, lol
irrath is chill & melodic
you should check out their latest album tbh, or really any of their tracks in the 8-10 minute range, that's like the ultimate sweet spot for the band where every song in that range always seems to stick the landing well. cotard is still my fave but agitation and natans are both strong competition in that regard

I dunno, I have a soft spot for Athesie and would likely send that in a roulette. I definitely don't love Cotard as much as you but I can't argue with your choices here.

[Crow]

i -have- sent athesie in a roulette before, it's wonderful. second fav on agnosie easily.

That's the closest we've ever come to agreeing on a specific song 

[Crow]

the best thing about the hirsch effekt is that they're both really diverse yet really damn consistent and it's basically up to personal taste which songs are most well-liked, basically

anyways lonestar will probably hate it and cut me and make all of this talk look silly, so 

[Tomislav95]

I'm intrigued... I guess there is stuff I could like, I just don't like dissonant music, that's why I didn't get Ira probably.

Just checked my messages, you sent me Irrath.

[Crow]

i sent tomislav ira. the "you" in that post was directed at tomi

[lonestar]

Paying attention, I suck at it...






Oh, and Tyrias, you're safe. Bullitts Dominae is a beautifully melodic track, so easy to get lost in it. Great build up at the end. Great shit man, thanks for sending

Elite, jingle, Parama, King, Orcus, TAC, Evermind and ToN, you're all still very vulnerable.....


I'll announce more safe people as the day progresses, not a ton of plans today except rest and recuperate and listen to all the killer music you guys sent me.

[jingle.boy]

I'm always vulnerable.   

[lonestar]

I've pretty much already decided everything, now I'm just torturing people for fun...

[Crow]

enjoy the next seven rounds of entries you're not obligated to listen to since i'm being cut 

[King Postwhore]

Will Chad be dropped?  Will king lose his S***, will Parama say something positive?  Stay tuned to Lonestar's Death Island Extravaganza!!

This guy gets it man...

I wish I wasn't obligated to either, but unfortunately your song saved itself from being in German. That musical build up at the end was fucking sweet; emotional, gutted, and raw. Love that shit man.



You're safe. Now shut up till the next round, and keep in mind the random cut I got flying around in case I just get plain tired of listening to someones blathering.

RJ hath laeth the smaketh down.

[Tyrias]

Well, I guess that means I'm already doing better than in TAc's roulette.
will make plans for the next round

Seriously great song man, just loved it. Also listened to a few others by them, great band. Thanks!!

[Evermind]

I remember being sent Bullits Dominae in my roulette and I thought it was kinda bland. I think Sacul sent it? I mean it was one of his better entries, but still pretty bland. Now, my track is a very beautiful melodic track.

Now watch me being cut in the first round.

I probably should've sent something heavier off The Congregation though.

[lonestar]

You know, one thing I noticed is the mood in which you listen to songs as well. I gave them a spin yesterday after a fairly brutal weekend at work, and all the moody, depressing wrist slashing songs just brought me down (like yours Ruslan), whereas the more upbeat rocking songs clicked. I gave them another spin this morning, and they had a different feel all around. I'm sure you guys who have run roulettes can relate.




And while I'm posting.... TAC, you're safe for the next round. Nice rocking tune, as with what I said above, it clicked with my moods. Rest up and enjoy the day my friend.



Still in danger.... Elite, jingle, King, Orcus, Evermind and ToN

Gotta run errands and give the rest of these a few more spins, Next reveal will be around dinner time...

[Crow]

The cloak isn't half as depressing as something like Slave tbh 

I'm predicting bent knee gets the axe at this point but watch me be wrong

[TAC]

I seriously couldn't imagine a worse tune.

Awww, why you guys ganging up on king...

You have musical horse blinders on Tim.  Way to branch out.

[Podaar]

I'm just popping in to say, that by the title alone, Bent Knee-Leak Water should be the theme song for the fogie thread.
