Wolfking's Wonderful Winger roulette v.3 - Round 2 album listening commenced

[LithoJazzoSphere]

Hmmmm.....pretty good.
Not sure what I expected from this artist but I enjoyed what I got.  Interesting vibe in the chorus too.

Maybe this one?

[wolfking]

Doom/Sludge or Damn Solid

Solid sludge? That's an oxymoron.

Actually, Puppies is damn doom.......no wait...

[wolfking]

Maybe this one?

Negative.

[LithoJazzoSphere]

Damn solid.
Actually liked the vocals here which is some feat and nice and catchy

Ok, let's try this one. 

[wolfking]

More impressions;


Wow....not sure yet.
This was more aggressive than I thought these guys were.  Maybe a bit much, but I didn't hate it.


Evermind - Excellent.
                  Love the modern melodeath style while getting some older Sentenced vibes


Interesting.
Took me a few goes and a bit more modern than I like, but I don't mind this.


Enjoy this vibe.
Strong Tribulation vibes which is never a bad thing


Litho - Damn solid.
            Actually liked the vocals here which is some feat and nice and catchy


TAC - Nailed it.
         I had to look this up to see who the singer was and you cheating fucker.  Making Chad look like a novice.  My fault though....how on earth did I not know this existed?  Shame on me.


Lonk - Peaceful.
           Really pleasant but not sure if it will stand out long term, we'll see.


lonestar - Talented.
                Impressive riffs and shred.  Quite memorable melodies too.


Sacul - Is this a troll?
            No seriously, are you trying to troll me?


Probably not
Yeah, this crossover kinda mix of styles is not my thing.  Never been a big hardcore fan.


ariich - Yeah, nice.
             Got what I expected here and that's not a bad thing at all.


Lovely.
Nice moody atmosphere but the guitar soloing was just fantastic.  Not normally my thing but had to enjoy this.


Hmmmm.....pretty good.
Not sure what I expected from this artist but I enjoyed what I got.  Interesting vibe in the chorus too.


Jingle - 
               This reinforced why I really don't dig this style anymore, unfortunately.


Perfect for the style.
Now this......this is how the above style is supposed to be done.  Would have loved a solo but it's got such a good feel it was okay without it.


Puppies - Yep, like this one.
                Love the doomer/sludge feel.  Groovy.


Stadler - Undeniable classic.
               Probably should have rejected this as I know the song from listening to the radio in my youth, but to be fair, not on the banned list.


Wow, really cool.
This was some wonderful groovy melodeath. 

[LithoJazzoSphere]

Sweet, I actually prefer that impression to the first one I guessed, but wanted to start out more in the middle just in case.

[wolfking]

This is a tough round to score.  I think there's a clear few on the bottom but then I think we'll see a bit of logjam from 8.0 upwards.  Will have results out tomorrow.

[wolfking]

There will also be a few member bonus awards this round too.  Might make them a full point too to keep it interesting.

[lonestar]

 

[wolfking]

That might actually crack a couple past the 10 point mark but....fuck it.

LEEEEEROOOOY, JEEEEYEEEENKINS!!!!!

I have no idea what this means.

How about this one:

Why the fuck would any normal person know that?

[TAC]

No clue here either.

WTF did I just watch?!?

I have never heard of that in my life.  I don't even know what game they're playing. Only thing I can suss is that was a pack of nerds ("I give it a 33.33 - repeating, of course - chance of success.")

[twosuitsluke]

Don't worry Chad, I know exactly what you're talking about

[Lonk]

Jesus, Tim.

Haven't seen that in a long time

Some people are just passionate about the games they play

[Stadler]

To be clear, I said "pack of nerds" in the most loving and inclusive way. I consider myself in that group as well.

That was funny. "NEGATIVE!! DO NOT MUTE THIS COMMS CHANNEL!!" was priceless, as was "Affirmative.  In my parent's basement." 

I have to believe he knew he was over the top.  I hope, anyway.

[Evermind]

Don't worry Chad, I know exactly what you're talking about

I knew what the video was without opening the link

That was his whole thing, he would join random matches and do this. I remember seeing some videos that other players would catch up and play along. I don't play multi-player shooting gamers anymore, but back in my CoD days I would've love to play with this guy 

[wolfking]

Jesus, Tim.

I don't understand what the fuck this is?  Is it supposed to be funny?  I'm more confused after watching it.

For clarity, my "Tim" comparison wasn't so much about not knowing a very famous pop culture reference/meme, it was the lack of use of Google.   

And it seems those who know the meme outnumber those that don't.

https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/leeroy-jenkins

tl;dr ... despite meticulous planning, it represents an epic fail - and complete disregard for said planning.

lol Leeroy Renkins

even Natche knows this meme. 

[twosuitsluke]

I was never a WoW player but had plenty of friends who were back in the day.

I thought a nerdy place like this would have a pretty good hit rate for recognising the meme.

[wolfking]

I stopped playing video games 20 years ago.  I wouldn't know what you're talking about unless it's Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat or Sonic the Hedgehog.

To be fair, it's not something that interests me enough to warrant googling.

Dude, that's 30 years ago!

[wolfking]

Dude, that's 30 years ago!

One month until I'm officially a fogey.  Let me have this month.

I forgot Streets of Rage too.
