Sorry guys.  Its exam season now, so my time has been consumed (NUGGETZ) with studying.  I'll try and get this finished tomorrow afternoon (I have an exam tomorrow.  Lamey McLamerson, I know).  Sorry I've been so awful with getting these finished in a reasonable timeframe.

Iommi - I Go Insane
Didn't know you were a big classic heavy metal guy since you're not big on Maiden.  The song was really cool.  Loved the guitar solo intro and the 80s power ballad feel to it (which I can be a bit of a sucker for.  Why do think I love The Spirit Carries On so much?)  Hughes' voice was a bit of an odd choice until the chorus, but it grew on me quickly.  Loved that bass riff during the bridge as well.  Plenty of awesome heavy riffs after that, almost all of which I liked better than the classic Sabbath riffs I know.  Hughes really killed it on I DON'T WANNA BREATHE, YOU DON'T WANNA KNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAOW!  :metal  And the bit after that had a really cool Opeth vibe to it.  Is the rest of his solo stuff up to this level of goodness? 
Too bad that album cover is awful :P

Mono - The Battle to Heaven
You know, I've known about Mono for a while (I introduced my next door neighbor to Sigur Ros and Explosions in the Sky and he wouldn't shut up about post rock for a year while I quickly fell out of love with the genre as a whole).  Mono was one of those bands where I actually did enjoy what I heard and my first thought wasn't "Explosions in the Sky ripoff."  I now feel ashamed for not checking out their stuff before now.  Good find!

Antigoon 4 Points
Brad Mehldau - Dont Be Sad Scroll
Not really epic at all, but it was a really cool tune.  I don't listen to nearly enough contemporary jazz (mostly just old fusion stuff and Coltrane, all on rare occasions), so this was definitely something new to me.  I'll have to check out some more of this stuff.

Wintersun - Sadness and Hate
First thought on seeing the cover art: LOLPOWERMETAL.  Then my next thought was LOLDEATHFOLKMETAL.  Very rarely can I take folk metal bands seriously.  They can make some cool sounding music, but it doesn't always work for me the way swing metal does.  This was the same way.  I felt its length in quite a few places.

Bearsarin Quartet -  Mehr Als Alles Andre
No idea what that song title means.  Not really sure I'd call this epic either.  But while the peaks never really reached epic height, they were certainly cool in a trancey way. 

Zbomber 3 Points
Buckingham Nicks - Frozen Love
You might need some help for your Buckingham love  :biggrin:.  Pretty good, but something must be wrong with all of you because I've gotten very few actually epic submissions.  So yeah, it was all right, but nothing Mangini-worthy.

The Angelic Process - Burning In The Undertow Of God
Fucking.  Badass.  Song.  Name.  Kind of reminded me of "Salvaging" from Insurgentes with all the noise, distortion, and ambiance going on.  But while that song makes its use of noise terrifying, I didn't get a real emotional jolt from it.  Sorry dude, but overall I didn't really like it much, but I do like the concept of it, if that makes sense.  Is there a better example of this kind of song/style, not necessarily from the same artist?

Sikth - Wait for Something Wild
Probably should've mentioned that I don't really like this band.  But I listened to the song to give 'em another chance.  Well...they're like a worse Unexpect.  Much worse.  And no ladies.  Or nine-string bass guitars.  Not doing anything for me. 

Final scores:

ZBomber-27
Antigoon-27
Gorille85-26
Sigz-26
Voxyn-26
Lateralus88-24
acidrainlte-22
dtismajesty-21

God fucking dammit.

Just...shitcock!  All right, we need a tiebreaker for ZBomber and Antigoon.  Both of you send me an album I can find on grooveshark.  If ZBomber sends something Lindsey Buckingham related he'll automatically lose.  I'll get you the results in a month (only being realistic here...)

antigoon

fuck.

edit: are you SURE you don't just want another song from both of us? :lol

Dear Matt,

Please kill yourself. Right now.

I'm not sure about the rest of his solo stuff but the rest of that particular album is amazing.

For the sake of the other roulettes, you can just let Joe win if you want since he had the higher scored song this round, I  don't really care... I just wanted to participate in a roulette.  :P

Unless you really want me to send an album.

skydivingninja

Yeah, but Joe wins like, everything all the time.  I want to give you a fighting chance unless you want to give the fuck up.

Jamesman42

HE WANTS TO GIVE THE FUCK UP

I am ZBomber's conscious, sup?
\o\ lol /o/

ZBomber

Sent you a PM, Matt. It's up to you, but honestly I really don't care all that much. Not like people remember who win these anyways.  :lol

I submitted an album I want him to check out anyways, regardless of what ends up happening.

skydivingninja

Yeah, it seems ZBomber really just wants Joe to win.

So Joe wins.

CONGRATULATIONS FUCKFACE!
