You can't really use a Q list as the basis for the quality of music out there or else we all would have given up long ago. Btw, it's October. Too early blah blah blah blah Kasabian? Maybe they were the ones that gave up. -------------------- |

yay, list time
There's not much on my radar for the next two months, although I haven't listened to half the stuff on Ringo's list.

Ward - Hold Time 35) Mos Def - The Ecstatic 34) The Horrors - Primary Colours 33) The Field - Yesterday and Today 32) Karl Sanders - Saurian Exorcisms 31) Akron/Family - Set 'Em Wild, Set 'Em Free 30) Exivious - Exivious 29) Tyondai Braxton - Central Market 28) Giuseppe Ielasi - Aix 27) IAMX - Kingdom of the Welcome Addiction 26) OOIOO - ARMONICO HEWA 25) Yo La Tengo - Popular Songs 24) Black Cock - Robot Child with a God Complex 23) A Sunny Day In Glasglo - Ashes Grammar 22) Animals as Leaders - Animals as Leaders 21) The Dream - Love vs Money 20) Joe Henry - Blood from the Stars 19) Phoenix - Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix 18) Andrew Bird - Noble Beast 17) Fever Ray - Fever Ray 16) Grizzly Bear - Veckatimist 15) The Dirty Projectors - Bitte Orca 14) James Blackshaw - The Glass Bead Game 13) Maudlin of the Well - Part the Second 12) Ametsub - The Nothings of the North 11) The Decemberists - The Hazards of Love 10) Arve Henriksen - Cartography 9) fun. - Aim & Ignite 8) Mastodon - Crack the Skye 7) Hecq - Steeltongued 6) The Antlers - Hospice 5) mewithoutyou - It's All Crazy!

Apparently Mitch didn't learn from his last misadventure in threadtitling.

So you're saying that my list sucks because there are evidently some other publications out there who cover these albums (I wouldn't know, the only publication I read is p4k, and that's only to check for reviews of albums I've already listened to). Do I have a responsibility to keep track of what the magazines are covering, just for the sake of not listening to that stuff? Am I supposed to be sitting here cataloging p4k reviews to make sure I don't happen to like an album that they also liked? Am I not allowed to listen to what the fuck I want to listen to, regardless of how popular it gets?
Furthermore: Just look at the threads on SOMB. I see Animal Collective, Phoenix, Grizzly Bear and Dirty Projectors threads. Or look at the SOMB year end polls. Last year you, the highly sophisticated and elite S.O.M.B. chose these as your favorite albums of the year: Portishead - Third TV On The Radio - Dear Science, M83 - Saturdays = Youth Fleet Foxes - Fleet Foxes Sun Kil Moon - April Deerhunter - Microcastle / Weird Era Cont. Cut Copy - In Ghost Colours Bon Iver - For Emma, Forever Ago British Sea Power - Do You Like Rock Music? Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds Fleet Foxes, TVotR and Bon Iver. I had Shugo Tokumaru, Have A Nice Life, Chris Wood and Helios. And I'm the one who gets bashed for not being obscure enough, or not having enough variety. Not that my choices are entirely unheard of, but compared to Fleet Foxes they are. And yes, I have Grizzly Bear and Animal Collective on my list as well. It's because I like they way they sound. But since a lot of other people happen to like the way they sound, I guess I'm not supposed to give those albums credit on my eoy list. And actually you know what, I'm pretty damn sure there won't be a single aoty list from a major publication that includes any combination of Hecq, Kormorany, mewithoutYou, Arve Henriksen, IAMX, OOIOO, Black Cock, Nels Cline, Ametsub, Joe Henry, Club of the Sons, etc., etc. Not that I give a shit; I wouldn't mind in the least if my list were identical to p4k's. I don't feel any need to be a shining beacon of musical obscurity or variety. I just don't understand where people get off saying I'm more of a NAIR guy than anyone else. Explain the situation to me. -------------------- |

QUOTE (spiritofeden @ Oct 29 2009, 05:06 AM) Hey Liffey. start a fish thread for your list. We don't need any more Mew YSIs, thankyou. In regards to the Q list, kudos for a bold and admirable placing of Florence and the Machine, but otherwise it's quite bewildering. Kasabian as AOTY? U2 in the top 10? Pearl Jam and Green Day? And for godsakes, Mika????!!! I mean, come on now. Really. -------------------- QUOTE (Montana @ Dec 31 2009, 12:11 PM) Jacques Custo, reference to "deep see diving", hence "deep commentary". |

Explain the situation to me.  -------------------- Few beings have ever been so impregnated, pierced to the core, by the conviction of the absolute futility of human aspiration. The universe is nothing but a furtive arrangement of elementary particles. A figure in transition toward chaos. That is what will finally prevail. The human race will disappear. Other races in turn will appear and disappear. And human actions are as free and as stripped of meaning as the unfettered movements of the elementary particles. Good, evil, morality, sentiments? Pure ‘Victorian fictions.’ All that exists is egotism. Cold, intact, and radiant.
Michel Houellebecq. "Sometimes, after they'd done the shopping, they would stop, each with his or her cart, in front of a bookstore that carried the paperback edition of his book. His wife would point to it and say: you're still there. Invariably, he would nod and then they would continue browsing the mall stores. Did he know her or didn't he? He knew her, of course he did, it was just that sometimes reality, the same little reality that served to anchor reality, seemed to fade around the edges, as if the passage of time had a porous effect on things, and blurred and made more insubstantial what was itself already, by its very nature, insubstantial and satisfactory and real." Roberto Bolaño, 2666. |
