Good example of a guy who I don't think can sing at all.

This cracks me up because I've been told on multiple occasions that my singing voice sounds exactly like his.

Very pleased with how round one turned out. I got 4 of my 6 nominations in. And it looks like I'm guaranteed to have an album in round three - two of my albums wound up facing one another for round two. I won't spoil which ones so not to bias anyone. 1. Fiona Apple - Tidal 2. Tom Waits - Heartattack...

I was wondering what artist would overperform the most in this department compared to their overall ranking and I think the answer is Oasis.

A few releases that I feel don't get discussed here often that I really adore. Best Coast - Crazy for You (2010): A California beach album if there ever was one, Best Coast never quite reached the heights they did here and on the singles that preceded it. Still, every song here is a poppy, punky (bu...

I think I might have nominated Marry Me a few years back? Not certain, but happy to see it here once more. I remember Actor a couple of years ago, although you may be thinking of another year. I checked and I think it was the year after Actor, and it got out the very first round. Glad to see it's f...

We're at around the halfway point of the year, so I've got a top twenty for now. I'm especially curious to hear the William Basinski, Baroness, Cinematic Orchestra, and Fontaines D.C. records. 1.

He meant that he thought the Elvis Costello album was pretty much guaranteed to win, but now the quality of the Mano Negra album makes the result seem less certain.

Seconded. Lil Nas X is giving me the same vibes I got out of the Odd Future crew back in 2011 - they're very skilled at capturing specific cultural moments and will likely mature into very successful and idiosyncratic artists.

I like to think I contributed to that high placement, having it as my number one, which I know is sacrilege to some Rolling Stones fans.

Just saw Better Oblivion Community Center last night and seeing Mitski with Jay Som on Tuesday in Athens.

I definitely think those age ranges are imperfect. A lot of what I listened to at 13 or 14 was video game soundtracks, and while I do possess a certain fondness for them, they're such a minor part of my listening habits now I barely think of them. I do have an intense fondness for the new music of m...

Does anyone live in Georgia (the stateside one) or the surrounding area? I do remember seeing that another former member does, but I forget who and it was quite some time ago.

Whew, kudos for raising a difficult point. I've recently had this same reaction to many other artists - whether or not to give them support, particularly in any sort of public forum. For example, I was considering getting very into the artist Brand New right when the Jesse Lacey allegations dropped ...
