In May

But yeah, there's a shitton of stuff coming out in 2016 I'm hyped for, and that's just the bands I follow

The person who is getting a one probably knew they were taking a huge risk.

Eh, you'd be surprised. I've played Nusrat around a fair number of people, and the large percentage of reactions is fairly positive. Yours is by far the most negative he's ever gotten in my experience. The dude collaborated with Peter Gabriel and Eddie Vedder (and a bunch of electronic artists), and Jeff Buckley covered his stuff, so despite the style of music, he somehow has far wider appeal than you'd think.

But if you didn't like it, fair enough.

Damn, one point behind

Sent. Went out on a tad bit of a limb, not too much.

Genowyn · « **Reply #286 on:** March 27, 2016, 03:38:08 PM »

Still waiting on a few submissions... Have sent PMs to those responsible.

i'll save you from the depths of infinity, little thread

also who sent foxy shazam, that song is cool

Train of Naught · « **Reply #289 on:** April 02, 2016, 10:13:56 AM »

There's human beings on this world that don't know Soundgarden's Rusty Cage? Damn.

Just this afternoon I found out fun. is the same band that put out that cool popular party song "We Are Young". Oh well, no band's perfect

I bet Brass Goggles will win the round, fucking great song. Fishies and Stomp That Goomba are cool too though

Crow · « **Reply #290 on:** April 02, 2016, 10:16:49 AM »

yeah, fun.'s second album is trash tbh

there's a few decent songs (Some Nights in particular is great) but the album as a whole is boring and watered-down from their debut

Evermind · « **Reply #291 on:** April 02, 2016, 10:51:30 AM »

Brass Goggles is awesome indeed.

Genowyn · « **Reply #292 on:** April 02, 2016, 11:08:37 AM »

Sorry again for the delays everyone. I'll try to have results for this round today or tomorrow.

In the meantime, originally I was planning to have this run for ten rounds, but if you'd prefer, rather than having you keep waiting I can make round eight the last one. Let me know your thoughts on that.

Crow · « **Reply #293 on:** April 02, 2016, 11:16:27 AM »

considering you're already over the recommended 2-month time limit, having the next round be the last is fine

Train of Naught · « **Reply #294 on:** April 02, 2016, 11:35:52 AM »

Fine with me! I'm running out of the good stuff anyways, so maybe this way I still have a chance of knocking Sacul off his throne.

Are there currently 5 roulettes running? Madness

I guess for the sake of keeping things in a timely manner it's for the best to end it at 8 too then.

Crow · « **Reply #295 on:** April 02, 2016, 11:36:27 AM »

there's only 4 running rn.

Sacul · « **Reply #296 on:** April 03, 2016, 03:52:05 PM »

Crow · « **Reply #297 on:** April 03, 2016, 03:54:28 PM »

honestly i may be ready to run a roulette again by the time my turn comes up bcuz while i do have stuff still on my to-get list none of it is the reeeeally good stuff at this point, at least not from the roulette, there's a few black metal albums from my own searches and that earthside one too but w/e
maybe i'll go check out the 8.0's at some point and see if there's anything decent there

Shadow Ninja 2.0 · « **Reply #298 on:** April 03, 2016, 04:23:36 PM »

Listen to all my submissions first.

Especially the ones that sucked.

Genowyn · « **Reply #299 on:** April 03, 2016, 06:28:22 PM »

Working on writeups now ~~

Next round will be last and it'll be open

I think I will also make it worth DOUBLE

SO NOW IS THE MOMENT OF TRUTH

PICK YOUR BEST

DON'T SEND ANYTHING UNTIL THE RESULTS GO OUT

INCLUDE THE GODDAMN TITLE AND ARTIST IN YOUR PM

Crow · « **Reply #300 on:** April 03, 2016, 06:29:19 PM »

it probably shouldn't be worth double tbh everyone's already blown their best stuff at this point

Shadow Ninja 2.0 · « **Reply #301 on:** April 03, 2016, 06:29:24 PM »

sending trash rn without song title and artist k

Genowyn · « **Reply #302 on:** April 03, 2016, 06:32:42 PM »

But I like the idea of it still being anyone's game

Though I can see how that might be frustrating for those at the top.

Iunno discuss amongst yourselves

Shadow Ninja 2.0 · « **Reply #303 on:** April 03, 2016, 06:34:45 PM »

I pretty much always send without any real strategy or anything, so I'm pretty much planning on keeping that up.

But I never send anything that I don't think is really good.

i'm at the bottom though

i just don't really think it's fair to make one round worth extra. if any round should've been worth double it shoud've been the epic round, but

and fluffy, for what it's worth i have two songs that i haven't entered yet that could both be the "best" thing i send but since me and genowyn's tastes differ a fair bit he'd probably give either of them a 3/5

Sacul · « **Reply #306 on:** April 03, 2016, 06:51:19 PM »

Just hand me the crown

Don't get ahead of yourself.

5 - Foxy Shazam - Oh Lord - Scorpion

Ohh yessss. I can see why two people tried to submit this song. This was a blast to listen to. Sort of reminded me of Queen? Good times.

4 - The Cat Empire - Fishies - Ultimetalhead

Cool song. Makes me want to dance. Makes me think of Grim Fandango.

4 - Steam Powered Giraffe - Brass Goggles - Shadow Ninja 2.0

I did not expect a steampunk themed band to exist, and yet of course I did. This was cool. The concept on its own was pretty great, and an enjoyable tune as well.

4 - fun. - Walking the Dog - Parama

Definitely an enjoyable tune and a fun listen. Yep.

3 - Moron Police - Stomp That Goomba - Train of Naught

Definitely an interesting tune, and fun for sure, but I wasn't all that into it musically.

3 - Soundgarden - Rusty Cage - Fluffy Lothario

So I haven't actually heard this song before. It's pretty cool. I remember they talked about it on Game Grumps one time. I dug the main riff but didn't enjoy the vocal performance as much.

3 - Kiss - Shout it Out Loud - Stadler

Again definitely a fun song, but I wasn't to into it as far as the music goes.

3 - Panic! At the Disco - Camisado - Sir Walrus Cauliflower

Cool song. Wasn't super into the vocal performance, but it was cool otherwise.

2 - Bill Callahan - Ride My Arrow - senecadawg2

Not really sure what's meant to be fun with this song. Wasn't really into the song itself anyway.

2 - Jonelle Monae - Tightrope - Sacul

I feel like I have definitely heard this song in like a hair dye commercial. I also don't really like it.

Standings:
Scorpion - 28
Sacul - 26
Train of Naught - 26
Ultimetalhead - 26
Sir Walrus Cauliflower - 24
Stadler - 23
Shadow Ninja 2.0 - 23
Parama - 23
Senecadawg2 - 21
Fluffy Lothario - 20

Once again the next round is the final round and will be open!

I am considering making it worth double points... weigh in!

Make sure you include the artist and name of the song in your PM, please do not send an unlabelled YouTube link!

Crow · « **Reply #308 on:** April 03, 2016, 06:59:20 PM »

foxy shazam is one of those artists i've known about for a while because of that song but never looked into further

sent earlier yeah, but resending apparently

Sacul · « **Reply #312 on:** April 03, 2016, 10:34:41 PM »

I probably should have sent Come Alive (War of the Roses) by her, but Tightrope is amazing as well, so

Will send tomorrow.

Train of Naught · « **Reply #313 on:** April 04, 2016, 12:23:14 AM »

I would probably not do the double points myself if I were the host right now, but it's up to you.

sent

Fluffy Lothario · « **Reply #314 on:** April 04, 2016, 07:07:34 AM »

Normally, I peruse my library a little for ideas before sending, but I’m on holiday at the moment.

So I’ll have to send something pretty much off the top of my head.
