[jingle.boy]

We must be in bizarro world - I landed on mine pretty quick, and most everyone else is striking out ... multiple times.

[Elite]

7, 9 or 18

We must be in bizarro world - I landed on mine pretty quick, and most everyone else is striking out ... multiple times.

First time I got it on the 1st guess. It felt weird. Lol

[ariich]

18? Maybe you're reminded of Daft Punk?

No, I actually still dig Daft Punk a fair bit, although they are one of those "lots of great songs, no great albums" groups.

Mine's gotta be between 1 and 22

Getting closer...

We must be in bizarro world - I landed on mine pretty quick, and most everyone else is striking out ... multiple times.

Yeah seriously.

7, 9 or 18

Yes!

[wolfking]

20?

[ariich]

20?

Indeed!

[Elite]

7, 9 or 18

Yes!

9 then!

[King Puppies and the Acid Guppies]

I'm guessing Kat sent Ensiferum?

[Shadow Ninja 2.0]

OK I'm going to try 13.

[The Walrus]

I'm guessing Kat sent Ensiferum?

Nope. Victory Songs is the weakest of the first 4 records anyway

[ariich]

7, 9 or 18

Yes!

9 then!

Yes!!

OK I'm going to try 13.

Nope. You're being too pessimistic.

[Elite]

Train sent Sleeping at Last?

[King Puppies and the Acid Guppies]

I'm guessing Kat sent Ensiferum?

Nope. Victory Songs is the weakest of the first 4 records anyway

I mean, their best album is their first...

Iron is also pretty close. Too bad they turned to crap after From Afar 

[ariich]

Train sent Sleeping at Last?

He did not.

[King Postwhore]

[The Walrus]

I'm guessing Kat sent Ensiferum?

Nope. Victory Songs is the weakest of the first 4 records anyway

I mean, their best album is their first...

Iron is also pretty close. Too bad they turned to crap after From Afar 

I literally have not listened to the band since From Afar and I don't feel like I've missed out on anything

[ariich]

Yeah I inadvertently revealed it in the first impressions post, so I figured I might as well update the hangman too.

[King Postwhore]

 

What's funny is you I didn't notice before you realized it.  I looked too! Lol

[Shadow Ninja 2.0]

Ok, I'll activate my optimism subroutine and guess 1.

[Sacul]

Nekov sent telefon tel aviv. Also, 12?

[ariich]

Ok, I'll activate my optimism subroutine and guess 1.

Code accepted.

[ariich]

Nekov sent telefon tel aviv. Also, 12?

Yes to both!

[Sacul]

Well damn . Crank up your speakers, way better experience than headphones - just in case.

[Evermind]

I'm really not positive about this one, so perhaps 18? If not I'll go for 11 and if not I give up.

[Shadow Ninja 2.0]

Also going to guess Y to keep this hangman going.

[LordCost]

3 or 13?

[ariich]

I'm really not positive about this one, so perhaps 18? If not I'll go for 11 and if not I give up.

11 is right.

3 or 13?

Yep, 3!

And hangman updated above with Y. I'll reveal everything later today so last few hours for guesses.

[Elite]

Why guess if he's going to reveal anyway?

[Train of Naught]

LordCost:

Fjokra:
Slyrex
Love, Thrust, Burn
Psycho for the Sake of it

Broken Man

Burden of Life:
Sealing Our Fate
The Makeshift Conqueror, Pt. II

Wake from Eternal Sleep
Brave the Day
(holy shit I haven't heard / sent that Like Thieves EP in years, thanks for reminding me, where's Ghost in the Machine tho)

Why guess if he's going to reveal anyway?

Because!
Also mine is so easy I have no idea why no one guessed it at this point

[Elite]

Because!
Also mine is so easy I have no idea why no one guessed it at this point

Psychonaut:
All I Saw as a Huge Monkey
Sananda

[ariich]

Hangman updated. There's just one English song title left, and I guess LordCost is the only one who can get Indi's songs. Plus a few senders.

[ariich]

First impressions all revealed now:

Round 6 first impressions

1.     [Shadow – Sleeping At Last]
2.   Highly entertaining! [Indi – Elio e Le Storie Tese]
3.   This is an absolute blast! [LordCost – Fjokra]
4.   This has a lovely warmth to it. [Buddy – Gorillaz]
5.   Intense and atmospheric – this is excellent. [TAC – Illyria]
6.   Intense and atmospheric – this is excellenter. [Cyril – Illyria]
7.   Tight, heavy, proggy… it sounds pretty thrilling. [lonestar – Allegaeon]
8.   Big, immersive sound that I’m definitely digging. [Train – Psychonaut]
9.   Starts alright, but only gets more exciting as it goes. [Elite – Perihelion Ship]
10.   Very enjoyable – more power metal than I was expecting. [Katt – Burden of Life]
11.   Incredibly attractive but might feel a little backgroundy at times. [Evermind – No-Man]
12.   The sound is AMAZING, but not yet sure if the music matches up. [Sacul – Justice]
13.   One fantastic track, the rest perfectly pleasant but not very exciting. [Stadler – UFO]
14.   I can see what you’re going for, but not sure I’m entirely feeling it yet. [Nekov – Telefon Tel Aviv]
15.   Similar in style and quality to something that scored fairly well in round 1. [Luoto – Ensiferum]
16.   Turns out I know and love one of these songs, and the rest sound nice too. [king – Sting]
17.   A little different to what I expected, but not sure it’s that much more exciting. [Jingle – Led Zeppelin]
18.   Reminds me of a band I’ve not heard for years, and was only ever lukewarm on. [Tomi – Corrosion of Conformity]
19.   There’s a theatricality that makes it more exciting than a lot of music in this genre. [Puppies – Arena]
20.   Not very original, but nicely brings together an enjoyable range of metal influences. [wolfking – Lord]
21.   Exactly what I expected – a bit more exciting, but I don’t think it’s by a huge amount. [Lethean – Andromeda]
22.   Pretty much what I expected (which is great) with some other cool elements thrown in (also great). [romdrums – Like Thieves]
