Music Banter Hall Of Fame: Nominations Thread

[hannahbb21]

Well when you think about it, you should vote according to your musical tastes (at least somewhat). Take Britney Spears for instance: she was influential to alot of that mindless pop music that oh so many people seem to adore. But I think most people around here would agree that she's unbearable to listen to. Just because she was influential doesn't make her good. Now I realize that Public Enemy was/is far far far more influential to music, but the basic principal still stanRAB. I don't like Britney Spears or any of the music she spawned (whether it was/is culturally important or not), so I would vote 'no' if she were on the ballot. I don't like Public Enemy or any of that rap/hip-hop stuff out there, so I voted 'no' for them.

On second thought you're right, lets leave the element of surprise.

One more suggestion, any chance of cleaning up the thread. Deleting posts related to confusion on the nominating process.

:laughing:

I voted yes.

Let me tell you why everybody should like this album:

1. It's incredibly mangled, non-melodic and angsty for a 60's band.
2. The random bursts of anarchy that the organ player throughs in really add a sense of dimentia.
3. The struggling voice of the singer coupled with the gregorian chants.
4. Can be surprisingly dark at times while retaining that classic 60's vibe.
5. The drums, very tribal. They won't get you headmoshing, but they add just the right touch.
6 The music flows on by, whether you care or not. Emotionally, you can observe it from a distance, or hop right in, it's up to you.

Perhaps the most overlooked act of the 60s.

Come on guys.



Do it for me.

I'm tempted to vote against them out of spite. But ah, Zeppelin won, I should be happy for that, so sure, why not? They only had 2 albums but they're both great and insanely influencial.

He might overshadow a lot of other reggae, but Bob is still the borab. Yes.

[<Jelz>]

you're right it would be futile, I just couldn't let you get away with it without implying you were brain damaged :

[dolphinprincess_sarah]

Somehow someone with zero posts decided to make their way into this thread. And voted no.

Fuck that.

Not really seeing as though they were regularly getting hit singles 3 or 4 years before britpop broke.

And I don't know why you're so bothered about Nicky Wire's solo stuff. It only sold about 2 copies.
