Oh and Mick, you're one short of being awesome.

tbh I think I would have scored considerably higher if not for the vocals, didn't expect that to be such a limiting factor

It never bothered me but I get how it would probably irk most people

It was more the lyrics than the vocals for me lol

So I beat my previous higher score of 42.

I'm hoping to hit 50 next contest!

Congrats formerfish!

At the beginning of this contest, my money was on Death Cab. Then I heard Redbone and I thought Childish would win. But I am entirely ok with the actual winner. Quite good. I am very down with the current funk-blues-disco revival that appears to be happening in music.

ok now where's the cure for cancer you promised a cure for cancer

inspectorscout · Post Post #213 (ISO) » Wed Jan 18, 2017 11:42 am

62 isn't too bad. I'm amazed how completely different opinions were. You either loved or hated the vocals.
Next time, something totally different.

Pedit: CMM's song really got me! It was pretty good.

toolenduso · Post Post #214 (ISO) » Wed Jan 18, 2017 11:43 am

Oh and also I appear to have gotten very good at picking songs that end up in the middle of the final results.

For anybody who liked Belize (Oceana)....the song I entered is actually extremely different from the bulk of the band's stuff. I'd recommend the Clean Head EP overall (Barracuda is track #2 on that one), but the band's other two albums were both some subgenre of -core.

you know when oceana came up on the rise records channel i was expecting something different than what i got.

Not saying they're bad, btw. Their first album (The Tide) I quite enjoyed.

In this case when I said "vocals" I was referring to both tbh
