Y'all are crazy. Ghost Mile is easily my second favorite Voyager album.

So you're saying it's the cream of the crap.

Did Indiscipline send Steve Lukather? Party In Simon's Pants sounds like a song he would send. :D

That's absolutely a song I would (and should) send!

But I sent diabetes.

Surprisingly engaging, even with my recent lack of enthusiasm for this particular kind of music.

This is exactly the song I expected from Elite. Except his song is also exactly what I expected from him.

Reminds me of The Gift of Music somehow, and I don’t like The Gift of Music.

Probably one of the most complex songs of the round, as I don’t remember anything from my first listen.

Was this djent? I think it was.

There always was a brilliant song or two in Round 1 in my first two roulettes that applied to my tastes so well it might’ve as well been the definition of them at the time. It’s too early to tell, but I feel like this one might just be that kind of song.

This is exactly why I was so excited that you joined this roulette.

It’s as if the band had a bet with someone to write a song with vocal melodies no one will ever remember.

Things like this will never stop reminding me why the music is the form of art I adore the most.


narrowed down the list of snippets that could conceivably be mine
so it's probably the djent comment

It's in there, but it's not the djent comment.

Y'all are crazy. Ghost Mile is easily my second favorite Voyager album.

So you're saying it's the cream of the crap.

This is exactly the song I expected from Elite. Except his song is also exactly what I expected from him.

The band’s name rivals Giraffes? Giraffes! and I can’t say anything about the music because I haven’t heard a single song by Giraffes? Giraffes!

Probably one of the most complex songs of the round, as I don’t remember anything from my first listen.

There always was a brilliant song or two in Round 1 in my first two roulettes that applied to my tastes so well it might’ve as well been the definition of them at the time. It’s too early to tell, but I feel like this one might just be that kind of song.

I hope it's not the one with vocal melodies hard to remember, the rest of the possible ones are not so negative.

Also: Savage Circus - Evil Eyes?

And that badbadnotgood song could be Confessions.
