Crow's Overdue Roulette v8 - FINAL RESULTS!!!

[LithoJazzoSphere]

It might seal my doom next time, but I actually do think I might have a much better idea of the production style Crow wants there, and surprise, surprise, it's the opposite of mine, but I might have a few things that fit it that I wasn't thinking about early in the roulette. 

[Crow]

i am soooo saturated on black metal that i've stopped checking it out on my own unless it's from acts i already listen to, tbh. it's not even just that the stuff you're sending doesn't align with my prefs, even the stuff that does is just. not something i want more of at the moment. i've got plenty 

[Crow]

i promise i'm still working on this but hey what if we did a fun bonus thing in the meantime?

I've picked out one submission from everyone who's participated in this roulette (round 8 got no representation despite some people sending their best songs to date because of the song lengths, sorry  )

and i wanna put it up to all of YOU to rank them! fave to least fave! no scores or any writeups or anything necessary, just PM me your ranking and right around results time we'll see how the songs were collectively ranked and how likely completely backwards the ranking is compared to my own 

[Evermind]

Nice, I'll spin these today/tomorrow.

I barely have time to listen to my own roulette songs 

[Crow]

participation is not mandatory 
(and i totally understand that pain lmao)

Funny thing is, I almost did something similar in my roulette just to pass time during my busy week. I was gonna let the players do first impressions on other players songs.

[twosuitsluke]

Great idea, I’ll start listening now! So, are these submissions hand picked from different rounds across the whole roulette?

No surprises my arrow is red, I couldn’t agree more as Cosmic is something else!

Glad everyone will get to listen to Cosmic now.

[Crow]

yeah, somewhere between "what i liked the most" and "what would make the most interesting playlist" basically
i'm kinda sad i couldn't fit fjokra in there but i had to have a clarence clarity song and i really wanted to glow pt. 2 more than fjokra, otherwise picking songs for this was actually pretty easy ngl

[ariich]

Pretty fine playlist. I'll have a go at ranking! Might give the songs I don't already know a second listen to, which would be a little fairer.

[Lonk]

Listened to the playlist, on first listen, Cosmic and Night's Descending are the best tracks for me.

I'll do full ranking later 

[Sacul]

Dacul ^

I'll listen to the playlist in a bit.

[twosuitsluke]

Nearly finished the playlist. My rankings are not going to be a surprise to anyone. This is filled with almost half stuff I dig, and half I’d never want to listen to again.

What'd you think of Chapel Of Disease? I totally would have sent them to you (albeit different songs) instead of Parannoul for your final round had I discovered that album like, a week earlier than I did.

I actually listened to the album last year, and checked it out again a few weeks ago, so I definitely liked it. It’s in my top three from the playlist for sure, but it hasn’t got a great deal of competition for my tastes.

They definitely would’ve scored better than Parannoul, just saying.

[Evermind]

Nice, I'll spin these today/tomorrow.

I knew there was a reason I stayed away from this roulette

[Crow]

 

[Buddyhunter1]

Is there a deadline for this? I could just submit my rankings after listening to the songs once, but I'd probably want to do another runthrough to give at least slightly more accurate rankings.

[Evermind]

I will definitely only listen once Got three songs to finish, sending the rankings in a bit.

[Buddyhunter1]

Almost done with my first listen. Man is Void Of Words out of place on this playlist.

[Crow]

soft deadline of "whenever i'm ready to post results" but i might keep it going a day or two after if there's enough interest & people need more time, i am doing this a bit last-minute so

[twosuitsluke]

I’m doing a second listen now then I’ll send rankings. The Blues Traveler song isn’t on Spotify for me though, and YouTube only seems to have live versions, so unsure if I’ll be able to listen to the studio version.

[lonestar]

I'm quietly bracing myself for everyone to shit on my favorite song of the year.

i'm gonna assume this also doesn't work for you then?

It’s not the worst on the playlist, how’s that?

Nope, unavailable.

[Buddyhunter1]

Without spoiling too much, my own song was definitely the best still (is anyone ranking someone else's song higher? ). But I also really liked the Silversun Pickups and Leonard Cohen songs, the latter of which really isn't my thing normally but DAMN those strings and backup vocals took it to the next level.

There were a few songs that I didn't like much but everything else was kinda clumped up in a "pretty good" ball in the middle.

Yeah, couldn't find it either, ranked it 16th.

Sent! I'll be honest, I only enjoyed 5 songs from the whole playlist, and Kingcrow I already knew.

[Crow]

alright here's a link for the blues traveller song for y'all then

Not me!

Nope, unavailable.

Yeah it's like they went to great lengths to make sure the song was not available in any format in the UK (or maybe all of Europe) for some reason. I just used a VPN to hear it.

[Evermind]

Must be all of Europe. I used Germany VPN and no success.

I just went with US as that's where Crow is.

[Lonk]

If it helps, it ranked in the top 5 on my first listen.
