The TAC Roulette V.5...DTF Faves..WTF Am I Missing?? MastoDONE!

[ariich]

Yeah I remember when I heard that album thinking "hey cool, Haken are now big enough that they're influencing other bands!"

As you say though Cyril, it does go into rip-off territory at times.

[lonestar]

That's promising for us, especially those who submitted older stuff.

[Elite]

I bet at least one, if not both, of the songs I sent were sent by someone else as well.

[425]

Novena is a different band with Haken's singer in it, though.

I heard that.

Damn, sorry, missed the turn to the next page. 

Actually the playlist only has 17 songs. Somehow The Path snuck in there.

So someone probably sent Atlas Stone, which wouldn't be all that surprising.

[King Puppies and the Acid Guppies]

Everyone sent the same three songs?

Pretty much!

I have everyone except Stadler. That's 16 people sending 2 songs each, and the playlist is only 18 songs.


I'll post stats once Stadler submits.

  guess my submissions are not that unique.

Only ONE person sent TWO songs that are unique only to them.

Maybe me?

I'd still take Ross Jennings over Damian Wilson.

Speaking truth right there!

Wouldn't surprise me.
Now was anyone drunk enough to send Cockroach King?

[425]

Cockroach King is, I think, literally the last song I would consider sending in this round.

No. In fact one other person sent the exact same two songs as you did.

I don't want to go too deep into the stats until Stadler sends.

[Lonk]

I'm sure at least one person sent that song.

[Crow]

cockroach king would have been incredibly funny to send but i'm not funny enough to have sent it, sadly

Wow, color me surprised.

[Buddyhunter1]

Pretty sure nobody else sent my 2nd song.

[King Puppies and the Acid Guppies]

Pretty sure nobody else sent my 2nd song.

You sent Crystallized didn't you....

[Buddyhunter1]

Pretty sure nobody else sent my 2nd song.

You sent Crystallized didn't you....

Fuck no! That’s my least favorite of their 15+ minute so- oh wait Messiah Complex exists. Nevermind.

[TAC]

At least one other person did.



But I don't want any sent songs named until Stadler sends.

I'm trying to nail down my BtBaM submission. Still haven't settled on both songs. Initially I was just going to send The Ectopic Stroll and Voice of Trespass, but that might be too much weirdness for TAC 

[wolfking]

Gonna be a short round then.

It's still 2h24m, with Stadler still to send.

You poor bastard.

[Crow]

my BTBAM picks are probably not great but they make the most sense to me
idk how to sell BTBAM to TAC anyways, though, so whatever

I was doing a deep dive on them in the BTBAM Thread before the new DT came out.
I thought Colors and The Great Misdirect were really good. And I liked their first album.

I thought I'd use  roulette round to finish them off so I won't have to.

[King Puppies and the Acid Guppies]

Send Autumn and Sfumato 

[Crow]

if you liked colors and TGM then i'm pretty sure i made good choices 

[TAC]

[ProfessorPeart]

Just assume Stads will send 2 of the already sent songs. I can't believe we were all so in sync.

I had to run out today and listened to the run of The Mind's Eye / Portals / Shapeshifter from Visions. Why is that not one song? It is to me and that is how I ripped it to my iPod. One cohesive 17+ minute track and my favorite piece from them. I honestly would have sent that had it been one song, even at the long length. Visions is still my favorite album of theirs.

I really wanted to send 1985 but chickened out. Didn't feel TAC would like it or might find it corny. They so nailed the retro on that song.

[Buddyhunter1]

Okay how many people sent 1985

[425]

I did not send 1985. I think it's a solid song but I don't really get why it's so beloved compared even to other songs on the same album.

[Crow]

1985 isn't even that good 

[Evermind]

I did not send 1985. I think it's a solid song but I don't really get why it's so beloved compared even to other songs on the same album.

My thoughts exactly.

[wolfking]

Kind of hard to predict what or if any later BTBAM Tim would like.  Probably just gotta throw a couple of songs you like in there and hope for the best.

[wolfking]

This is actually really difficult.  With BTBAM, I don't listen to songs and look at each track as a different song.  I always put on one of their CD's and listen to the whole thing as a singular experience, a whole one piece if that makes sense.  I find each of their albums and one of the only bands where I don't even really know the song names I'm listening to half the time as the whole album is the complete experience.  Trying to pick apart 2 different songs is near impossible.

[ariich]

I agree Kade, BTBAM are all about albums really, even many of the songs that are more distinctive often segue in and/or out of other ones.

[Lonk]

I agree Kade, BTBAM are all about albums really, even many of the songs that are more distinctive often segue in and/or out of other ones.

So should we all just agree to pick 2-3 albums and everyone sends a different song from those albums (to avoid repetition)
