Great submissions overall (and a few FUCKING AWESOME ones), just started the writeups now. Not sure what my plans are for the evening, but they'll be up sometime tonight.

Round 1 Results!





ClairvoyantCat: Martin Greche - I Am Chromosome

Holy fucking awesome. It was pretty relevant to the topic, and musically it was absolutely killer. Great interplay between metal, atmospheric piano, and the distorted electronics really added to it as well. Definitely going to have to check this album out in full.

Relevance: 3/4
Music: 4/4
Total: 7/8


jingle.boy: Dec Burke - Secret Lives

Interesting style. The vocals, synths, and guitar tone gave off kind of a standard-fare prog metal vibe, but the drums and songwriting we a bit different. Either way though, I dug the song, though the production was a little off putting. The solo at the end was probably my favorite part. I'm not sure how relevant it really was however.

Relevance: 2/4
Music: 3/4
Total: 5/8


orcus: Spose - I'm Awesome

lol. Just, lol. The music was kinda meh, but the lyrics were god damn genius. I'd quote the best lines, but it'd basically just be the entire song.

Revelance: 3/4
Music: 3/4
Total: 6/8


Nekov: Mum - The Ghosts You Draw on My Back

Absolutely perfect submission. Charming instrumentation, but with a really dark vibe. That's all I can say.

Relevance: 4/4
Music: 4/4
Total: 8/8


Rich: Soulwax - Overweight Karate Kid

Hmm. I really have no idea what to say about this song. I mean, I liked it I guess, but beyond that I really don't know. It was just kinda there. Still fairly relevant though.

Relevance: 3/4
Music: 2/4
Total: 5/8


Lonestar: Love and Rockets - So Alive

Definitely nailed the topic, but the music didn't do a ton for me. It wasn't bad by any means, and I really liked the female backing vocals actually. However, all this doesn't matter cause you didn't like Shpongle, so you get -2 points.

Relevance: 4/4
Music: 2/4
Total: 6/8


Ravenheart: Suicide Commando - Conspiracy With the Devil

Awwwww yeah. Didn't find the song particularly relevant to be honest, but the music was so great it didn't matter. Exactly the kind of EBM/electro type stuff I need more of.

Relevance: 1/4
Music: 4/4
Total: 5/4


LieLowTheWantedMan: Velvet Underground - Heroin

I'd heard the song before years ago, but  never really got into it. Unfortunately, coming back to it again didn't really help anything. Somewhat fitting to the topic, but the music is just kinda there.

Relevance: 2/4
Music: 2/4
Total: 4/8



Current Rankings:

Nekov: 8
ClairvoyantCat: 7
Lonestar: 6
orcus: 6
Ravenheart: 5
Rich: 5
jingle.boy: 5
LieLow: 4

No, it actually doubles every round.



You're not actually getting a penalty

I can deal with the penalty as long as I don't have to listen to shpongle again.

Round 2 + Bonus Round!

So, two cards this time around. First, Round 2's card is this:





However, this will also be the introduction of the Bonus Round, who's card is this:



The bonus round will be run basically as the card sounds - I'll give these songs until the before the final regular round to score them officially. Relevance will be scored based on whether my appreciation of the song increased over time. Going along with this, there will be no time limit for the bonus round. You don't have to send a long song of course, but you can if you want.

Try to get songs in by monday.

Enjoy!

I think I know exactly what I'm sending for Round 2. Have to think about the bonus round, though.

Well, I instantly had a thought for this round, but then just as instantly dismissed it because it's prog-metal with screams.  Then, I saw Opeth recurring on your Top 50, so now I'm thinking I may take that chance.

Question on the themes... is it the feel/music you're looking to tie to the theme, or the lyrics?  Or is the answer 'Yes'?

Yeah don't worry about screams turning me off, I'm totally fine with them.

And it can either one or both. Ideally both of course, but that's not always possible.
