Cuntry is very under-represented on this poll so far

I met my old cunt down at the pub or whatever.

24 K. MICHELLE Anybody Wanna Buy a Heart? [486 points, 17 votes, 1 first place vote]

(If I were to re-vote, this would be my #1. As it was, it was my #3.)

Thank heck for that

whoop whoop

whooooooooo!

WOOO

who????

j/k i do like this album

I didn't think there was a standout track on this but it's really solid front to back yeah

wasn't 100% on this but i thought 'going under' was a fantastic song

Didn't vote for it, but this is a very good album. "How Do You Know" was my favorite track. Love the cover art too.

"Drake Would Love Me," y'all.

ILX would love me

a totally fucking great album

HATED Scott Walker, until I heard Bish Bosch, which I ADORED. Therefore was expecting to ADORE Soused, but didn't particularly engage with it all.

...AT all, duh.

I'm gonna give K. Michelle a whirl based on this response (seriously)

As a listener who typically only digs into lyrics when they're really really good, I'm absolutely smitten with this album lyrically.

23 RICHARD DAWSON Nothing Important [497 points, 15 votes, 2 first place votes]

my #1 and contender for all-time great status

listen
to
the
title
track

aptly titled

& read its lyrics

seriously, read the lyrics to this album's longer tracks, especially the title track. read the lyrics while listening to the music. imagine a small, impossibly mice man howling them onstage accompanied only by a small, amplified nylon guitar.

Dawson <3 <3 <3

Didn't hear this till the tracks poll came out, good stuff

prefer the lyrics to the album's shorter tracks tbh

apt cliche: 'practically a religious experience'

#263 on PnJ. I see Whiney voted for it.

Good stuff, voted for this.

Richard Dawson is terrible and unlistenable as far as I'm concerned.

once and only once i can honestly say lj otm
assuming mice means nice

I like macrocosm type writing and film-making, but not in music. I will keep my criticism short before I dig myself into a hole here, cos I really like imago!

I had Dawson at #5. Was only able to listen to it via Spotify so no listening on the commute which would probably have pushed it higher.

Couldn't get through this :|

the word 'cunt'
richard dawson

so proud to be british rn lol

I couldn't connect with Richard Dawson in any way, either, and I was unable to listen to any whole Swans song, but I voted for Gazelle Twin, Scott Walker and K. Michelle, so this all seems fine. And pleasantly incoherent!

22 SHABAZZ PALACES Lese Majesty [536 points, 17 votes, 1 first place vote]

I can see why the Richard Dawson record is niche, but by jove, if you like it you're probably going to love the chuff out of it.

less of the c word m8

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

think it's time I come to terms with the fact that Menace Ruine is not gonna show up

Oh Fuck I meant to say microcosm above

I like the "chuff" in Brit vernacular much better than the other c-word.

np xelab - compliment returned!

i'll go insane for Shabazz Palaces right
