Album draft signup thread.

Recommended Posts

Well, Tool was on my short list, but I believe Undertow was already taken, and that was the one of their albums I'd want on the desert Isle, so I'll letcha have it.

 

I'm going with something modern and recent...one of, if not THE best metal album I've heard in a decade,

 

Mastodon, Blood Mountain

1. The Wolf Is Loose

2. Crystal Skull

3. Sleeping Giant

4. Capillarian Crest

5. Circle Of Cysquatch

6. Bladecatcher

7. Colony Of Birchmen

8. Hunters Of The Sky

9. Hand Of Stone

10. This Mortal Soil

11. Siberian Divide

12. Pendulous Skin

 

:thumbsdown: :thumbsup: :headbanger:

 

This is an increadible effort by a young band - love the sound, style, melody, lyrics and the sometimes bizarre time signatures of their songs, but through it all this album ROCKS.

BroncoBilly is up!

hey scoot - aenima was taken, not undertow. :thumbsup:

 

 

Ah well - you people are insane, because Undertow blows those other two out of the water....I saw them on that tour in a tiny club (+/- 200 people) and they were amazing.

 

But my pick stands - I'll keep Mastodon on my roster. I think it's a strong pick and I love the CD. It may even be the newest album selected by any team. :headbanger:

 

 

also :thumbsdown:

bostonlager, fock the geek draft point system crap. I mean, edgr = LT2? wtf kind of board would have him being the most valuable person? :blink:

 

Instead, I vote that we have a movie draft...

we each get say 3 comedies, 3 dramas, 3 horrors, 3 action, 3 adventrue etc...

That way each person would have a list of 15-20 (21 if you use 3's) well rounded lists.

 

:thumbsdown: :rolleyes: :banana:

15.11 Foo Fighters - The Colour and the Shape

 

Monkey Wrench, Everlong, My Hero, Walking After You

 

I was torn in so many direction in what album to take here. Only 15 rounds. I eventually settled for this album, on the strength of the singles. Monkey Wrench is nice uptempo song. Everlong might be my favorite song of all time.

Liner Notes

 

"In 1986 while playing a show at the Paramus Roller Rink (with rock gods Trixter) I think it was a Battle-O-The-Bands, well anyway, someone from Torrid Records saw us. Some weeks later we signed a deal. Basically we did this record as we were graduating high school. When looking back at this CD I can only say one thing - everyone's gotta start somewhere."

We have 12 teams so its going to have to be head to head to head. Same as the movie draft we'll eliminate one team from each bracket the first few rounds and eventually vote on a winner.

 

Brackets will be based on draft order

 

1, 5, 9

2, 6, 10

3, 7, 11

4, 8, 12

love that album, and it's on my short list....I also wanted to take Zappa & the Mothers of Invention, "we're only in it for the money", and Miles Davis, "B!tches Brew" which I can't believe wasn't taken. Also Fleetwood Mac, self titled...so many good albums not taken. Wish it was 30 rounds.
