TAC: Lör - Eidolon (In Forgotten Sleep)
  • Well first of all, this song blows...
Huh..I thought you'd like that. It's one of my favorite 2017 tracks.

Anyway, sent for Round 4. Hopefully this track has a little more...um...buzz.
would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.  ;D
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol

That's fair, and I agree that the production on that track is muddy - shit's compressed to hell and for no good reason really. I think he's been purposely making his albums sound bad so people have to buy the vinyl version so get better SQ version. About the beats, they aren't any special on that track yeah, sent it because it's a banger but I just love NIN's style a lot :P - was thinking of sending This Isn't the Place as it's a very atmospheric, moody track but when with this instead. His production work can be very good tho, on Hesitation Marks he went synthpop and did lots of very cool things with beats and stuff, only a handful of tracks being any straightforward.

Time to send another pink star contender  :metal

For some reason most NIN fans didn't like it because it was not really heavy and angry but I love it.

jingle.boy: Damnations Day - To Begin Again (A World Awakens)
Well it took you until the third (of five :lol) round but finally you've sent me something that actually leaves and impact on me and that is memorable. :tup Not the greatest song ever or anything, but solid, and enough to top out this particular round of songs.


So, you're saying this song was the cream of the crap?   :lol  Doesn't matter... I'll take it.  :fistpump:

TAC: Lör - Eidolon (In Forgotten Sleep)
Well first of all, there was a song Chad sent me in my first roulette where I called the synths "cheesy as absolute fuck" and damn, the casio-keyboard sounding string synth sounds in song are just as cheesy as I remember those in Chad's song sounding.

Obsession?  I thought it was the hi-hat that annoyed the fuck out of you?

Anyway, Tim... I'm moving up.  See ya later pal.   :metal

Will send later tonight.

I started to do 200x200 crops from 1000x1000 but they looked too easy, so I went with 150x150.

Didn't need that 2nd picture :lol at least for these two:

A3 - Manchester Orchestra - A Black Mile to the Surface
C2 - Dirt Poort Robins - The Raven Locks Act 3

Mine is reaaally hard because the deluxe cover is the one most people know and its colour is entirely different. I guess in a way that's a hint but I don't expect people to know it because of that.
people on this board are actual music fans who developed taste in music and not casual listeners who are following current fashion trends and listening to only current commercial hits.
