SSt had a lot of forgetable and forgotten bands.

Pookie 10.29.2008 05:56 PM

They had many more bad bands than good. But the good bands were the very best.

Maybe.
Stop complaining, please, you're on the SY board, what did you expect ?


I don't expect anything else, purely because they are the one common denominator that everyone here can agree on (to some degree anyway ;)).
And at least it'll be deserved for them to sweep the 80's list, rather than in the 90's & 00's lists where it was kinda daft really. Still, the only SY album I voted for this time was Walls Have Ears, because, as much as I love them, their other 80's LPs will hardly need any help placing, and there's a ton of other albums from the decade also worthy of recognition.

I was wondering the same thing about Metal Box - Dec '79 for the original metal-can version, Feb '80 for Second Edition, which was the first version distributed in most places outside the UK. Figured I'd just leave it for the 70's list though...

I just checked it. As far as message boards go, the puncuation was ok. So try reading, or ignoring, or shutting go on making pointless arguements. Fuck off.

Better. I read the whole of that and, considering the bad grammar and spelling, pretty much understood it all. Well done.

sarramkrop 10.31.2008 10:27 AM

Did anyone put Ministry's 'The Land of Rape and Honey' on their list? Great album.

Oh yeah, one of many that come to mind after first thinking about this thread,

 


It may be too poppy or milquetoast for many here, but I loved it when it came out and still do !

jennthebenn 11.01.2008 09:30 AM

I seriously hope I'm not the only one who put "Pretty Little Baka Guy" on
their list.

Everyone who didn't should receive 20 whip lashes.

greedrex 11.02.2008 03:31 AM

pantophobia 11.02.2008 09:08 AM

gmku 11.03.2008 03:47 PM
