Ariich's ALBUM Roulette; or, Is The Man Completely Mad? (completed)

[jingle.boy]

Oh OK. I've never heard of that before.

Jesus tap-dancing Christ.  Does Mrs. TAC have a well in the basement she keeps you in or somethin!?!?

[Podaar]

Oh OK. I've never heard of that before.

Holy, shit.

I'd love to answer you but I'm currently sending for Round 2. I can fucking barely reach the computer. Damn tether,

[lonestar]

Good fucking lord....

YOU'RE NOT EVEN IN THIS FUCKING ROULETTE!!!   

[lonestar]

Oh shit... 

You guys are fucking killing me.

[ariich]

you guys

And yes obviously I've heard Ozzy. I've rated only one album by him, which makes his other albums eligible for submission. I've heard a bunch of other random songs but never checked out any other whole albums. And I'm very familiar with Black Sabbath of course.

[TAC]

Neither are you!

[Elite]

I still find a year with no summer incredibly boring personally but hey that's opinions for you

and I think it's an amazing record

Oh snap...

[wolfking]

I googled MILF and it was all porn? It didn't explain what MILF stood for.

The porn part didn't give it away?

[bl5150]

Holy shit - it's in two threads

[wolfking]

Oh OK. I've never heard of that before.

This thread is already worth archiving

[Podaar]

I like what Mrs. P had to say about TAC when I shared this thread (and the other one) with her. "I'll bet his wife knows what a MILF is!" 

[King Postwhore]

Tim has to be half in, half out of a time rift in the 80's.  Wait, I knew the term MILF in the 80's.

I chose to bow out gracefully.

I had literally never heard it before.

[King Postwhore]

Let's blow Tim's mind and have him look up GILF.

[Nekov]

Well done guys, now I can't reply to the thread while at work.... 

How's the listening going rich?

[orcus116]

Rich, I just checked RYM and you gave Science Fiction a 3.5. Why you gotta be like that? 

It's a good album and that's a good score. I just found it a bit... safe maybe? Didn't feel very exciting to me.

Late response but I'm not sure I'd call it safe because it all felt fresh and very mature for that genre. It's a perfect swan song for a band that had such a huge impact and then sort of fell silent for awhile. It took me a few listens but I fell in love with it and it's hands down my album of the year and has my second favorite song of the year (137). I'm not sure if I like it more than Devil And God but the production is top notch and I expect nothing less from one of their albums.

[Nekov]

[lonestar]

[ariich]

We're on track to finish the round mid-week again. Onto my third listens, lots of interesting music and good discoveries again, and I've got a pretty good idea of what I think of each one but precise ratings for some of the albums needs another listen or two! Currently feel like there might be a slightly wider spread of ratings...

Just because you've introduced me to some awesome music in the past, I'll give it some more listens once my roulette is over. Devil and God is excellent, and Daisy has some songs I don't really dig but some really exciting, eclectic stuff too. This felt less interesting than the former and more middle-of-the-road than the latter so maybe felt a bit disappointing, but I'll make sure I return to it.

[ariich]

Ok, to whet your appetites for updates, in the absence of results, here are few teaser opinions.

A couple of the albums have one song I've heard before, which I liked. On one of those albums, none of the other songs interest me as much, which is a bit disappointing. The other is a more enjoyable album than I expected based on the song I'd heard before.

One of the other bands I was sure I'd heard a whole album by before, but apparently I haven't, which is extremely confusing. Anyway, it's very good.

One of the albums I'm enjoying at least as much as the winner from the last round... maybe even slightly more, haven't decided yet.

oh well 

[Stadler]

Dear God.  Ill spell it out.


Mother I'd Like (to) Fuck.

No shit, my wife's initials are "MLF".   

[Nekov]

One of the albums I'm enjoying at least as much as the winner from the last round... maybe even slightly more, haven't decided yet.

I hope this one'e me. I would be surprised if you've listened to something by this band before since they're pretty unknown but maybe you did and it ends up being the one you're not enjoying much... still hope it's the first case

[ariich]

I'm enjoying how everyone is less confident this round.

Might actually get results done tomorrow!

[Crow]

I mean, I didn't send my favorite album of all time this round so I have to be less confident by default

[lonestar]

My confidence is very low, since I again sent prog metal. Hopefully my boys will deliver enough to get me through.

BTW, guitarist of my band I sent is a fellow DTFer, so if you slam his music he'll  know...

[Nekov]

Well, I'm confident in my rationale for submitting that band, that album wasn't my first choice from them but given the time constraint I had to adjust. Still, your taste is pretty inconsistent so you never know.

That's low.  That's very low.  Playing on the heartstrings.

FYI emotional blackmail doesn't work.

That should be a given, british people and emotions don't go hand in hand
