Oh L'Amour also very lucky to get through considering it seemed to be extremely polarising amongst the group - lots of #1 and #4.

Never thought much of Grimes until I put on the Art Angels CD on a long car drive. Immediately hit me as a favourite. On the other hand, one of my current favourite bands, The National, took me a long time to warm up to - I liked Exile Vilify and The Rains of Castamere because they were associated w...

I won't be doing album lists. Hoping to contribute to the final this year. 1970 was weird for me because all my favourite songs from the year are just acclaimed ones. I think the only song in there not on AM is "Cheryl Moana Marie", an admittedly guitly pleasure by John Rowles, NZ's version of Barry...

Lemon Demon - Spirit Phone (103 min)

Just to get ahead of this, the album was uploaded to most places including a selection of bonus tracks - the real album goes to track 14, Spiral of Ants - a much more modest 59 minutes.

395. Moby - Flower - 7 I remember being really into Play when I was younger. This would have fit right into the real album, and I like it a lot more than some of the tracks on that record. 396.

had some renewed energy for ranking these so im going to try get a song ballot in before the 10th. probably won't be complete. no album list because I'm not much of an album listener.

So I figured I'd have a shot at doing a review this round. The Blowtops - Insected Mind - 2005 "The Blowtops hit the Buffalo, New York scene in 1998 like a tidal wave of white noise. Scaring everyone out of many establishments by shear aggression and volume." reads the biography on the Blowtops' Fac...

393. Sandi Thom – What If I’m Right - 6
She's a Scottish singer, with an album listed as pop/folk, with the lead single being about wanting to be punk... but this other single is mostly just country. It's alright.

392. Prince - Partyup - 7
Great funk but something feels missing? The funkiest parts are the best bits.

390. Wire – Mr. Suit - 5
A nice fleeting moment of rage
391. The Decemberists – When the War Came - 9
Sometimes it's all about the atmosphere for me. I'd probably still love the song if it was just the riff.

385. Dean Martin – That’s Amore - 6 Complicated feelings on this one. It's a classic, but does that mean I'm missing something or does it just not hold up? Am I too young to understand? Is it wrong that this sounds like a Weird Al parody of a more serious song? Mysteries that may never be solved. Ca...

First time listening to Carrie and Lowell. I might like it better than Illinois. Feels more consistent in quality, and I prefer the more mature voice Sufjan has here. Definitely something I want to listen to more - it can have an 8, just because I'm not super familiar with it yet. (I figured I'd sha...

Just my two cents: I ranked a few of the original threads but never got time to go through them all. I think it'd be great to bring them back in a new form for re-rankings and reposting old rankings (as well as letting people like me post their rankings) unless you just don't want to manage them all...
