Pool 66.

Someone desperately wants A Head Full of Dreams to go through after losing to the Mighty Pumpkins in pool 42 (I think)

Shite. There's another error.

All those who vote for Coldplay in this pool will not be counted.

But thank you for noticing!

 

[Aber gas]

Vote Dead Kennedys instead lads

 

[Vanni]

Damn right Abers. PSD is one of mine, and I've always liked it more than DK's debut Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables. This album came soon after the In God we Trust, Inc. 12'ep and it showed. Faster songs but very melodic in a way. Top album.

Yeah, it's a fantastic album and just lost out to in God we trust on my list. Let's get this one through!

 

[les.gtfc]

Yeah, Dead Kennedys for me in this group too. Jello Biafra is just bonkers.

Don't see the attraction of Arcade Fire, not to my taste at all.

 

[Vanni]

Tbh, I like Arcade Fire a lot and I think Neon Bible is the best one they've ever done, though I'm in a minority as their fans generally prefer Funeral or The Suburbs. I disliked Reflektor and I don't think I played it more than a couple of times. So, personally, it's a pity Neon Bible came up against one of mine, the great DK.

 

[The Cards]

Can I vote for three albums?

 

[PaulHaddock]

Winner: Arcade Fire- Neon Bible

 

[Vanni]

Fair enough, an excellent album imvho.


"Little babies?
Let's go!

Women and children?
Let's go!

Old folks?
Let's go!"

 

[The Paranoid Pineapple]

No Cars Go is GREAT

Do very much prefer Funeral as an album so kinda think the wrong AF record is progressing but OH WELL

 

[Vanni]

Dunno PP, I was blown away by Funeral but NB tops it imo. But like I said the other day, I know I'm in a minority. In fact I know a couple of AF fans who don't listen to NB at all.

 

[The Paranoid Pineapple]

Yeah tbf, that ought not to have sounded quite so negative Actually very fond of all of the first three - like you, Reflektor is the one that doesn't quite do it for me

They're bloody great live too
