I was surprised to see that Capcom had "only" 19 games but I guess the real surprise is seeing only 1 SNK game, though I guess it doesn't help that most of their games were only playable on Arcade or on a console nobody had, and that most are parts of series where unless you are a fan it c...

Nevermind, I started it : https://letterboxd.com/nassim84/list/am ... ound-list/

If anybody has made a letterbox list of the movies that made it to the final round, I'd be interested (otherwise I'll probably end up doing it and share the link here)

The 2010 song "Ghost" is by "Skip the Use" not "Slap the Use" (in any case, I hate that band)

I'm trying to tackle the top 100s of PTG, TGB, AM, TTV, & TSPDT 25 at a time That’s quite an ambitious project, I’ve played roughly 70ish games from the top 100 of PTG but that was over the course of 30 years lol. Looks like I played 63 at least a little bit, but only about enough to really get...

Here's a list of classical works that might be helpful. https://digitaldreamdoor.com/pages/best-classic-wks.html Curious, if any classical music fans want to chime in - what do you think of this list? How well does it capture the canon compared to AM for popular music? What else belongs here? I've ...

Pretty heavy section from 50 to 43 with Metallica, RATM, Deafheaven, Black Sabbath, the Stooges and Nine Inch Nails Interesting to see Ride the Lightning picked over Master of Puppets, and I wouldn't be surprised if Reign in Blood ended as the highest ranked metal album (I don't expect anything else...

Cat Power - Moon Pix over Tame Impala - Innerspeaker
Mdou Moctar - Ilina: The Creator over Guiseppe Verdi - Requiem

Nassim

We're halfway there ! Losing hope of seeing Built to Spill included.

Nassim

Lovely album by Joanna Sternberg, kinda sounds like Daniel Johnston with Joanna Newsom's voice... a bit of a lazy description but I think that's the vibes the album is giving.

Nassim

Red Eye falling from #3 during the end of year poll to 52nd is quite an impressive drop ! (Though I'm more saddened by I'm Not Part of Me going from top 10 to nowhere to be seen)

Nassim

Todd Rundgren is kind of inevitable in this game and so we finally arrive at his fourth entry (two with Utopia, two solo), now rivalling Paul McCartney as most appearing artist. It is also the third time a Rundgren song comes from Henry’s list. The surprise is that someone found a Rundgren song not...

Short lists for me this month. Tell me what the weather's like so I don't have to go outside Albums : 1) Run the Jewels - Run the Jewels 2 2) Ought - More Than Any Other Day 3) The Afghan Whigs - Do to the Beast 4) Robyn + Royskopp - Do It Again EP 5) Andy Stott - Faith in Strangers 6) Spoon - They ...

Following the Kurt Vile concert (and because like most of you I just waste way too much time for nonsensical lists), I tried to check how many of my top 1000 favorite songs I have seen played live. Turns out I have seen 228 for sure, 250 at best (I browsed as many available setlists as possible but ...

Nassim

Kurt Vile was meh, some songs were great (Wakin on a Pretty Day and a lovely cover of How Lucky by John Prine) but other were a bit too mellow... I mean that's a big part of his music but it can feel a bit samey and too nonchalant (especially during the "encore") Also they really didn't do...

I spent quite some money for classic music concerts this weekend, part of it for going with my daughter (including a Peter & the Wolf concert) but some for me : Psycho cine-concert (going with the in laws for that one), an evening with Edvard Grieg's Concerto for Piano and Tchaikovsky's Symphony...

Sigur Ros, Killer Mike and QOTSA are all good but far from their best.
The new Home is Where is great though, for anyone into emo !

I stuck with the description, two well known musicians collaborating, more than the usual definition of duet, so my well known musicians are not both singing.

Nassim

From first to last place in a week ! Nice selection all around this week so I don't feel too bad about it.

Nassim

Not sure how we missed that one ! https://www.popmatters.com/best-albums-of-the-2000s It seems to be based on the 2014 list (which I think was already based on their 2009 or 2010 list), so I have included the previous rankings in brackets. 12 new entries, and lots of rankings very similar to the pre...

Nassim

I think I have been fairly transparent that I wouldn't vote for song from AM (forum poll and/or website) top 1000 (not that I check the actual ranking). But yeah, vote for what you like, nominate what you like, but at least you know now that picking a very well known song is a double edged sword.

Ok, I'll let someone clarify that one before grading it...

498. Ludwig van Beethoven - Piano Concerto No. 4 in G Major, Op. 58: III. Rondo (Vivace) - 7 499. Beastie Boys – Pass the Mic - 8.5 not my favorite Beastie Boys... but they have 15 songs in my top 1000 of all time so that doesn't mean it isn't pretty great ! 500. Les Fatal Picards – Française des Je...

497. Doves – Black and White Town : 7 strange feeling on this one, it starts with a nice propulsive beat but it then fails to build up further, enjoyable but a bit frustrating

Nassim

I had Hades at 23 and Bastion at 107 the last time I did a ranked list. I love all the games in my top 200 to some extend but I think Hades is an improvement on all fronts. I tried Pyre but the gameplay wasn't for me (seems pretty great on the narrative side though) and I never tried Transistor Yea...

Nassim

I like seeing Hades at #10, I think it might actually be THAT good. I actually wasn't crazy about it, but a lot of people whose taste I respect love it, so I guess 10th is fair. My favourite Supergiant game is actually Bastion, which is criminally underrated at 343rd. Hades is better mechanically, ...

496. BØRNS – Electric Love : 6.5

Did someone on this forum once have today’s song as their number 1 of all time or did I dream that? Was it BryanBehar himself and did the song just fall off a lot? Bryan Behar's had it at #1 in the 2018 poll indeed. Quite a big dive, I felt like a huge traitor when I moved Either/Or from #1 to #2 i...

It's great to see this most recent round's victory go to a song that's gone relatively overlooked here until now. I hadn't heard it before but it was the absolute perfect pick for that playlist. With regards to Rob's comment, I actually own a set of waterproof headphones that you can load with some...

Maybe the AM ranked songs streak is broken, but the female act streak is alive and well. 422. La Femme - Où va le monde - 7.5 (I'm not sure why the "bad" lyrics weren't much of an issue in their 1st album but got really grating as early as their 2nd. At least this one still delivered on th...

Little announcement about the project: the first ever update to the list will be happening very soon, hopefully within the next couple of days.

I stopped somewhere in the summer period (ingame) in P3P so far, grinding for xp is tedious but you don't really have the choice if you don't want to hit a wall when getting to the boss fight (and you have no way to know if you are ready for the boss which makes things worse).
