There were so many good parts I don't know if I can pick a favourite:
- removing about 20 names from the banned list after the first few day of the roulette because she "just copied and mixed together a couple of banned lists from other roulettes"
- giving everyone 10/10 without any reasonable explanation as to why she loved the songs so much
- hosting a round dedicated to pop music which she absolutely hates (while still having Coldplay on the banned list)
- organizing an avenged sevenfold only round after declaring her love for the band numerous times in other threads, that's like me hosting a round for the dear hunter or something
- giving a Native Construct song higher than an 8/10
There's two great songs this round and while I'm pretty sure which one is going to win, I don't want to announce either quite yet, probably saving it for tonight.
This one was kind of meh, but had its moments. The main guitar motif was pretty annoying in the first 4 bars, so I was pretty disappointed to find out it continued for almost the entire duration of the song. Consequently, it shouldn't come as a surprise that my favourite part of the song was the verse where this guitar was (rightfully) turned off. Also, the last few moments of the song have some pretty awesome soaring vocal lines, I think they should have extended the song a bit (felt very short) and turned that part into a chorus and have it return later. Like a more standard verse/chorus/verse/chorus structure, why not? Would work for this song. That is, if they unplugged the lead guitar
I think the person who sent this knows it's him by now. Home, you're in. Overall, this was a pretty weak round so you're still probably somewhere in the middle of the rankings.
1. Disperse - Unbroken Shiver
2. Tall Ships - T=0

Tomislav95: Todtgelichter - Café of Lost Dreams
: Death - Flesh and the Power It Holds
: (The Darkness - Christmas Time (Don't Let The Bells End))
No, I'm not saying they are well known but I was planning to send them and was 99% sure they were on the banned list.
I would have expected them to be banned by now too tbh. Saw them live this year (around February I think?) with Plini and DMM. Their last album was much more in line with their latest albums as well so they fit the line-up, but from the snippets I've heard from Living Mirrors, that's a whole different beast. Never checked them out because I was kind of burned out on uplifting instrumental prog like the last DMM album.
