Lethean's Laid Back Roulette (Final round results!!!)

[Lethean]

stadler doesn't like anything released after the year 1990 he doesn't count

I like Pearl Jam.   

So do I.  See, you should listen to the rest of the songs in this round with me.

I like Pearl Jam.   

Well, you have to live with yourself for that.

[The Walrus]

 

[jingle.boy]

Yeah... first impressions?  Second or thirds will do too.

[The Walrus]

I'll settle for final results 

I've decided not to send Rhapsody at all, just because I know Lethean won't like any of it. Makes me sad but oh well

Daawn of Veek-tor-eeEEEEEEE!!

Really?  In their entire catalogue there's not a single song that I would like?

I think there is but I'd rather not waste a roulette round on it because I still have other stuff I think you'll enjoy much more; I would much rather have you hear an entire album honestly.

Aqua with headphones it is, then.

[Lethean]

Ok, some thoughts.  I feel like much of what I have to say on some of these tracks would give away which song it is, let's try this:



1.          
2.   This track makes me want to take a second look at this band.
3.   Some of the musicians on this track -
4.   So, um, OK… ?
5.   This track reminds me of that Skussgjá track, even though it doesn't sound like it at all.
6.   
7.   I almost want to say this singer is in the wrong genre of music, but that's probably ridiculous.  It's just that I don't like their voice.
8.   This is a really nice track that puts me in a good, relaxed mood.
9.   I feel like this band would fit right in on that Leprous and Agent Fresco tour.
10.   I both like and dislike the singer in the track.

[Evermind]

Mine is 4, probably .

[Crow]

i don't know if #9 is about bent knee, but i mean, bent knee is touring with leprous & haken this fall
#2 is probably jane's addiction but i could be wrong

Aqua with headphones it is, then.

Hey, I've listened to almost 40 albums in the last year by 5 bands you love, AND I played Aqua this week. YOU owe ME 

I hope mine is #1. Doubt it but I hope that song went over well at the very least.

[Sacul]

8.   This is a really nice track that puts me in a good, relaxed mood.

Definitely Converge

Yeah, but those bands were all good, and you don't think a single Rhapsody song is good enough for this roulette, so...
We already had that Aqua - headphone deal in place - but maybe I could be convinced to switch it out for a different album instead.  Hmm...

I hope mine is #1. Doubt it but I hope that song went over well at the very least.

I know mine isn't #7 or 10. I doubt it's #2, 3, 5, or 9. It's probably 4, but that's could possibly be Converge. I guess that means I'm 1, 6, or 8....

[Crow]

oh yeah 4 is almost certainly converge

[Elite]

7.   I almost want to say this singer is in the wrong genre of music, but that's probably ridiculous.  It's just that I don't like their voice.

If this is about the Oceans of Slumber singer, I don't know how to help you

[The Walrus]

Nah. You owe me a Rhapsody album regardless. I know Aqua well enough to know I strongly dislike it. One day you'll reciprocate my generosity     

Results when, my friend? Tonight? An hour from now?

I can go back to the Secret Garden thread if need be, and pull up the details of our contract.

Results when, my friend? Tonight? An hour from now?

Not today.

[The Walrus]

BOOOO  I will write up a list of all the albums I've heard by your suggestion including the ones I purchased! You def. owe me outside of this roulette. But I may send you one of their longest songs now just to be mean 

[Lethean]

Let's see... 19 Rush albums, 12 Fates Warning albums, 8 Threshold albums, the whole Vanden Plas discography or just some?  probably 3 Leprous? Unless you've heard a couple more.  Not sure how far you've gone with Katatonia.  Oh yeah, Bittencourt Project.  So... you're welcome.

And I bought every Rush album (sans Feedback), 1 Fates Warning so far, 1 Vanden Plas (out of the 3 I've heard), and Coal is on my next-to-order list (out of the 3 I've heard). I own 2 Katatonia albums but don't like them enough to dive into their back catalogue yet (too depressing too often). And I bought Bittencourt earlier this year. And I listened to 10 in my roulette! Listen to something I suggest, dang it    

... or not, I found good music either way

I'm just giving you shit - you don't have to listen to Rhapsody if you don't want to lol

[Lethean]

Are you done editing or should I wait a few more minutes?

[The Walrus]

I am done. I had to make sure I wasn't coming off like a whiny baby 

[jingle.boy]

I really want mine be #1, since it slides effortlessly (three times to be precise) between mellow and metal.

[Lethean]

I am done. I had to make sure I wasn't coming off like a whiny baby 

    You weren't.   What's the other Katatonia album besides The Fall of Hearts, by the way?

The roulette doesn't count - you listened to 10 albums by everyone there.

Now, to the rest, this is a very interesting philosophical conversation.  You seem to think that I owe you and that you were doing me a favor by listening to all those albums, and that's fair enough...  However - your friend listening to a band you like vs not listening to a band you like - it kinda sucks if they don't, but sometimes that's the way it goes.  Compare that to: you dwelling in darkness with no Rush for your entire existence vs stepping into the available light and having the rest of your life immeasurably improved because of albums like Power Windows and Stadler's personal favorite, Grace Under Pressure.... well, I again say you're welcome, and who's done who the favor?     


In all seriousness, of course I will listen to a Rhapsody album.

tfw you're still hanging out without me

My guess....

That's OK, because I don't recall asking for any help.

[Lethean]

But did you see what I did there?  Did you? 

Also - did you know that I was considering adding this to the banned list:

Rhapsody - unless sent by Kattelox

That's right, I'm gonna make you feel guilty about not sending it...

[jingle.boy]

Challenge accepted.
