A poll on 2016 releases between Black foxxes, O'Bro and Thrice would be fun imo. Thoughts?

 

Foo Fighters - Concrete & Gold
The Wonder Years - Burst & Decay (could be interesting because there'd be a lot to discuss comparing the original to the re-recorded)
Vince Staples - Big Fish Theory
Turnover - Good Nature
The Killers - Wonerful Wonderful
Kendrick Lamar - Damn.
Queens of the Stone Age - Villains
The Menzingers - After the Party
Bleachers - Gone Now
Paramore - After Laughter
Charly Bliss - Guppy

 

Black Foxxes!

I'm down to vote on those three. I've been meaning to check out O'Brother for years it feels like.

 

I honestly dont listen to that O'Bro album nearly as often as I should. Seeing @bachna84 avatar has certainly made me want to play it more.

I will create the poll. Just got an idea to add 2 more releases to it

 

@Jason Tate is it not possible to edit or delete a poll?

 

https://forum.chorus.fm/threads/chorus-fm-live-listening-party-thread.23130/poll/edit

Thread creator can I think ...

 

I am but don't see where or how to do it

 

That link not work?

 

When I click on edit poll, i can only add to the existing choices not replace or delete any of the selections or modify the poll title unfortunately :(

Edit: when i first created the poll when i went in edit i could still see at the bottom delete poll but eventually it went away and never came back

 

It doesn’t always have to be the same, I just thought could be a good “default” rule.

I also like the idea of doing themes, like “previous release from artists with highly anticipated upcoming releases”. (For that, I’d say Front Bottoms, Julien Baker, and Converge.)

If we want another 2017 record in the list, I recommend

Wolf Alice (out tomorrow)
Richard Edwards
Julie Byrne
Nana Grizol
Waxahatchee

 

This is what I see:

 

I'll join in if we do Nana Grizol or Julie Byrne!!!

 

Maybe it's because i'm not on desktop but from that screenshot looks like you're not either. Those fields don't appear like that for me. I can't modify them at all

 

Must be a permission issue. I’ll look tomorrow.

 

My bad if we’re settled on the poll structure but I like the idea mentioned above of making each poll it’s own theme (e.g. 2016 releases, heavy releases, genre classics). That might help us avoid some selection biases. I’d love to see everyone’s thoughts on black foxxes.

 

Me too i think that one is a good one to do especially after Manchester Orchestra since they definitely share some similarities and like you i would love to see the reactions that one would get

 

I'm doing a solo listening party to The Bigger Artist by A Boogie right now

 

Also Safe to Say and Radiohead. Maybe 5 is too many but any of those 2016 releases would be really fun to do a live listening party for imo

 

I just re-listened to it the other day so it’s fresh in my mind haha but I friggin love the guitar tones on that album. Don’t like every song but there’s some top level bangers on there.

 

Do you guys realize there are literally billions of albums we could have listening parties for?

Let's do Your Favorite Weapon.

ALFM❤️

 

Related to that, but on a more serious note, I think the way we will have to do this is @DejaMoi picks the category (I.e. 2017 albums, scene classics, etc.) then we nominate albums. 3 likes - album gets added to the list, first 3 albums that get 3 likes we vote on? I don't know something like that because otherwise we will mention so many albums and never get to them.

 

Yeah no doubt. That band/album certainly is RIYL either Brand New or Manchester that's for sure yet it's still its own thing. Not too similar to them which makes me like it even more. To me the singer sounds so much like Andy at times its crazy. Not complaining tho Andy rules so not a bad vocalist to be compared to

 

I have a couple albums I'd love to see you all react to but they probably wouldn't be voted for :(

 

I definitely think 2016 releases next would be fun to do just got to get this poll situation sorted out.

Or no poll and we do Black Foxxes. I know @teebs41 would def enjoy that one. Like to vote lol

 

You guys should do that Phoebe Bridgers album, people need to hear this
