SN's Homestuck roulette: jpeg hero (final results)

[wolfking]

The Tea Party is Wolfking

Nailed it.

[TAC]

Aeolias
prog metal band with 2 monthly listeners on spotify so probably a TAC special? 

Presumably those 2 listeners are him and Shadow. That was the case for one of the bands he sent in my roulette (he and I were the only listeners)

How do you check?

Go to the artist's page and in the top right it tells you the number of monthly listeners. Click that and it tells you where people are listening from.

Oh wow.

I almost sent that to you Rich.

It’s cool and weird. I like that album.

[Shadow Ninja 2.0]

Sorry for not including song list but I wanted to send asap and I was working. You can delete "Remaster" from song titles

Also, I probably wouldn't send those Ensiferum songs but it's a good batch

I only just now see the 'Remastered' in two of the submissions

Yeah there are several that are titled with 'Remastered.' I probably didn't need to include it in the title, but I wasn't sure if the remasters differed significantly enough from the originals to change it. Plus it's in there now, and changing it would be a pain.

Also, my internet is finally back. Fingers crossed I can make it through my full listen for today.

[Elite]

Destroyer is wrong

[Shadow Ninja 2.0]

Oh yeah whoops, I forgot to update. I gave you guys an M to fill out the 'Remastered's in the spreadsheet without having to do it manually. Once we finish this up we can probably do first impressions later today or tomorrow.

Also there are only three people whose submissions are unassigned, so come on. Those should be pretty easy to guess.

[Crow]

gimme those impressions!! i need that sweet 4/10 juice

[Buddyhunter1]

Update on the Spotify monthly listeners conversation from earlier: I checked Aleolias today and now they're up to 5 monthly listeners, and I see my city in there. Guess the "monthly" term is complete bullshit. Kinda depressing actually, as now those numbers are actually higher than I would expect them to be, even for bands with hardly any.

[Shadow Ninja 2.0]

Well the thread title changed so it's time to do stuff. Get a load of this:

1   I really like the dramatic vocal style (wolfking, The Tea Party)
2   SN roulette first: love the vocals, not sure about some of the music (Cyril, Planetarium)
3   Good but maybe not very memorable (Stadler, Rainbow)
4   Yeah I'm having fun with this (Evermind, Ensiferum)
5   Really beautiful music (Sacul, Sufjan Stevens)
6   Energetic and catchy (Buddyhunter1, Pendulum)
7   Best vocals of the round? (Elite, Agent Fresco)
8   I really don't get what the vocals are doing here at all (TAC, Aeolias)
9   This may be your redemption (Puppies_On_Acid, Darkest Hour)
10   This is a style I don't listen to much but like whenever I hear it (Tomislav95, The Cure)
11   This is giving me flashbacks to the dark times (romdrums, VOLA)
12   Nice of Devy to provide some vocals (ariich, Black Peaks)
13   Nice but I think the vocals should be stronger than they are. (The Walrus, Broken Bells)
14   Well performed but not making much an impression on me (HOF, Steve Hackett)
15   All good but one song really overshadows the rest (Luoto, Maraton)

[Buddyhunter1]

4, 6, 10?

[HOF]

I’m going to guess 14, Bob!

[The Walrus]

4   Yeah I'm having fun with this
7   Best vocals of the round?
10   This is a style I don't listen to much but like whenever I hear it
15   All good but one song really overshadows the rest

borkin balls

[Crow]

2, 3, 5, 7, 10, 14, 15

5 especially, but i think that could be the other sufjan submission too 

[Sacul]

10

[wolfking]

I'm not sure but guessing mine would have something to do with the vocals.

[TAC]

Hoping this is mine.

9   This may be your redemption

but more likely this..

8   I really don't get what the vocals are doing here at all

[Stadler]

So, since mine are all instrumentals, we're right down to:

3   Good but maybe not very memorable
4   Yeah I'm having fun with this
5   Really beautiful music
6   Energetic and catchy

9   This may be your redemption
10   This is a style I don't listen to much but like whenever I hear it
11   This is giving me flashbacks to the dark times

14   Well performed but not making much an impression on me
15   All good but one song really overshadows the rest

And... I could be any of those except for no. 6.   I'm really hoping for 5 or 9. 

[Shadow Ninja 2.0]

4, 6, 10?

I'll give you a 6.

I’m going to guess 14, Bob!

I'd make a snappy reply if I knew the reference, but yep.

4   Yeah I'm having fun with this
7   Best vocals of the round?
10   This is a style I don't listen to much but like whenever I hear it
15   All good but one song really overshadows the rest

borkin balls

None of these borkin balls belong to you.

2, 3, 5, 7, 10, 14, 15

5 especially, but i think that could be the other sufjan submission too 

Yours is among that group, and 5 is indeed the other Sufjan, which makes this:

10

A nope.

I'm not sure but guessing mine would have something to do with the vocals.

You're right, although in fairness that usually describes about half of the first impressions.    Strangely enough given the kind of music I listen to, I'm very much a vocals first kind of guy.

Hoping this is mine.

9   This may be your redemption

but more likely this..

8   I really don't get what the vocals are doing here at all

I'm the bad news bear today, 8 is indeed yours.

So, since mine are all instrumentals, we're right down to:

3   Good but maybe not very memorable
4   Yeah I'm having fun with this
5   Really beautiful music
6   Energetic and catchy

9   This may be your redemption
10   This is a style I don't listen to much but like whenever I hear it
11   This is giving me flashbacks to the dark times

14   Well performed but not making much an impression on me
15   All good but one song really overshadows the rest

And... I could be any of those except for no. 6.   I'm really hoping for 5 or 9. 

You're not 6, but also not 5 or 9. Yours is one of the vocal ones to throw you off the trail (not really).

Also, as always gentlemen, remember these are only first impressions and there's plenty of time for songs to grow on me. I had The Dillinger Escape Plan's Miss Machine and Between the Buried and Me's Colors 4 and 5 years respectively before I really loved them. Though I am obligated to point out that your scores will be apportioned earlier than 4 and 5 years.

[Crow]

7, 10, 15? 

[TAC]

Oh boy. 

I'm gonna lose bad.

[King Puppies and the Acid Guppies]

3, 11, or 14.

[The Walrus]

shit

[King Puppies and the Acid Guppies]

shit

I don't think that was an option...

[TAC]

shit

I don't think that was an option...

Apparently it was, because that's what I got.

[Crow]

yeah well that's what happens when you send unlistenable garbage 

[TAC]

Apparently. 

[Shadow Ninja 2.0]

7, 10, 15? 

Nope.

3, 11, or 14.

Nope.

yeah well that's what happens when you send unlistenable garbage 

shut up cyril, go listen to your bad hypno5e albums

[Crow]

hypno5e is trainy

2, 3, 14 left. i guess 2 out of these three?

[Shadow Ninja 2.0]

I know, that's pretty much a verbatim quote you said to Train.  It used to be in his sig I think and made me laugh every time I saw it.

2 is you!

[HOF]

I’m going to guess 14, Bob!

I'd make a snappy reply if I knew the reference, but yep.

I’m not sure the origin, but I assumed it comes from The Price is Right (something a contestant would say to Bob Barker).

[Crow]

you are wrong about the music but i'll wait for your opinions to correct themselves

[Evermind]

4 or 9?

[Tomislav95]

1   I really like the dramatic vocal style NO
3   Good but maybe not very memorable MAYBE
4   Yeah I'm having fun with this PROBABLY NO
7   Best vocals of the round? JUST NO
9   This may be your redemption NO
10   This is a style I don't listen to much but like whenever I hear it COULD BE
11   This is giving me flashbacks to the dark times #1 PICK
12   Nice of Devy to provide some vocals NO
13   Nice but I think the vocals should be stronger than they are. COULD BE
14   Well performed but not making much an impression on me COULD BE
15   All good but one song really overshadows the rest NOT SURE WHICH SONG IT WOULD BE BUT WHY NOT
