I have Lonestar disease.

Edit: Nevermind. I DO remember what I sent.

and you're just toying with everyone and about to bring the pain

So far the only one feeling any pain in this roulette is me!

One listen in and this (to me at least) is likely the most diverse round and is overall quite strong I think. Some of you guys are really pushing me - who knows.......I may surprise you with my ability to take in stuff way outside my comfort zone and then again

A couple of the tracks are going to need room to grow (may or may not) - but on the whole I am impressed at how you are beginning to tailor unfamiliar music to my rather rigid tastes. And that was the idea of this preliminary phase - to give you some space to do just that.

Should have some teaser comments up on the weekend.

Well if you get a strong score again this round then you best not get ahead of yourself by the sounds

Starting from this round, I am actually just sending you my personal favorites.

No more thinking about this.

I think I put much more thought into these roulettes then I do with shit at work.

Evermind · « **Reply #471 on:** October 01, 2015, 04:59:30 AM »

I'll be kind of surprised if I get another high score for my song, because that wasn't my primary intention.

Evermind - cock blocker extraordinaire.

I am flying through this round - 3 listens in already. At this point I can't see anything getting less than a 7 so

That's often the best approach. Us morons who think and try too hard usually outsmart ourselves.

Amirite Kade?

I bet it wasn't on your list to begin with. I can say it was one of DTF Faves though.

Bolsters · « **Reply #475 on:** October 01, 2015, 06:38:59 AM »

IQ? Going by what's left in the faves and what you sent me in my roulette.

jingle.boy · « **Reply #476 on:** October 01, 2015, 06:39:37 AM »

Or Steven Wilson.

Evermind · « **Reply #477 on:** October 01, 2015, 06:40:54 AM »

Nope, not IQ. Why would I send IQ, to cockblock myself? No one ever sends IQ except RJ and me.

I could be mistaken, but I thought Chad had sent them once or twice.

I have. Quite possible Mason has as well. There are few IQ fans around here.

*has idea for next round*.

Evermind · « **Reply #481 on:** October 01, 2015, 07:15:12 AM »

Alright then! Damn, I should've sent IQ.

Absolutely. My WASP submission was actually a last minute thought. Spent time looking for something then just thought, "fuck it, I remember Chad doesn't know WASP, so here you go." It's often the best approach for some reason.

It had to be "I $%#& Like A Beast".

Stroke Chad's ego.

I am still mucking around with ratings/rankings , but a few teaser comments:

A strong, pacy guitar driven track that I enjoyed more than most $^$%^@ that I have heard. I don’t think the chorus is brilliant but the guitars get this one over the line

I found it quite a pleasant listen ,although I am not sure that there’s enough going on for me to be itching to play it over and over. It would work very well on an album in between tracks to create an atmosphere, which I imagine is how it was employed

The only album in my collection that it reminds me of a bit is Zakk Wylde’s Pride and Glory

the progressive elements were cleverly infused with melody and there were enough regular twists and turns (without meandering proggy stuff) to hold my interest

It’s the sort of music that I would really need to be in the mood for if I was to listen to a full album.

This song doesn’t quite have the vocal or instrumental brilliance to be getting a 10/10 but it’s certainly very strong power metal and there were some little melodic things going on that revealed themselves over multiple listens

Well, I just hope that one of the positive comments is mine.

That would be a pretty long interlude. LOL

Am currently listening to the album from which I would get the next entry. Have you made any album purchases the past week? Hahaha
