Iron Heart Forum Music League

[ARNC]

Interesting round - I thought I had a good idea where my votes would go when I scanned the list. Then I listened …

Let’s just say I responded to some songs in ways I wouldn’t have predicted (based on the list or my usual preferences).

@ARNC I was never into Avicii. Always rolled my eyes at his music, but I watched the video to The Nights after watching a memorial to him when he passed, broke out into a sobbing fit, it just really hit me...

I get goosebumps whenever I've heard the song since.

[GraemeE]

@ARNC not sure how we were both able to submit the same tune but if anyone had to get 2 slots on a round I'm glad it was marc bolan

[ARNC]

@GraemeE that confused me too. I think I owe you a couple of upvotes, not that you need them at the moment! Not sure how easy it will be to guess which choices are yours in the remaining rounds.

[GraemeE]

@ARNC I had quite an unfair advantage this time around having been the one to come up with most of subjects for each round

[T4920]

This is really gonna test the limits of what is classed a song as apposed to just noise hahaha...

[ARNC]

I’m quite looking forward to seeing what we have chosen to inflict on each other!

[Tago Mago]

I went with artists that I hate. The song itself is secondary to me

[Nocturama]

Missed a couple rounds - apologies. Back in the game, if only to stave off finishing in last place!
Problem being, I’ll now have to wade through this impending Play List…dang!

[ARNC]

With the timing of this round I’m considering doing a deal with myself - if I listen to the whole playlist without skipping, I’ll give myself a suitable reward at the weekend!

[chrisjohnnick]

woof, with having family in town over the weekend and being sick for a few days it looks like I missed the last couple of rounds. sorry all!

[T4920]

@ARNC famous last words...

[ARNC]

@T4920 I guess that means you’ve submitted something really nasty. Should I prepare for 🩸🩸?

[T4920]

@ARNC Guilty! Although I've sat through 90 minutes of the worst of it live, so I have confidence you can make it through 7 minutes

[Tago Mago]

I think the voting should be inverted for this round, 10 downvotes 1 upvote

[Tago Mago]

some truly terrible stuff on that playlist. respect!

[T4920]

Maybe I'm just broken, but that was my favourite round so far.

Downvote went to The Carpenters for killing the heavy, experimental noise vibe, but was quickly redeemed by that dissident, screeching chaotic jazz.

[ARNC]

@T4920 @Tago-Mago I’m thinking along similar lines. My downvote will be reserved for anything that’s too nice! Planning to listen tonight.

[T4920]

I'm taking way too much pride in the fact that I got 1st and 2nd place in this round haha, pissing friends off with my music choices is my favourite pastime

[T4920]

I really struggled to choose a Death Grips tracks for this round, despite destroying ears being their entire shtick ... I love their whole discography, but I do struggle to get through Steroids... it's the definition of sensory overload!
