Also feel free to discuss me and my 5 favorite albums in general in this thread, like even after the poll closes. Polls shouldn't be binding. They are true, they are OK.

All terrible. Women suck at music.

Surm - I've never heard any of these all the way through. Which of these albums would best rock a party?

kkvgz, Thursday, 13 May 2010 10:32 (sixteen years ago)

cassie, tho it's not too uptempo. real good for a party tho

i fake it so real, i am beyonce (surm), Thursday, 13 May 2010 10:37 (sixteen years ago)

come to think of it, it's a tough call between cassie and mariah. mariah calls this her "getting ready" record but it can party hard, esp the platinum edition w/ bonus trax

i fake it so real, i am beyonce (surm), Thursday, 13 May 2010 10:43 (sixteen years ago)

Dude, I've never even knowingly heard Cassie, but I was gonna guess that's what you were gonna say first. What's the Veruca Salt record like?

kkvgz, Thursday, 13 May 2010 10:50 (sixteen years ago)

it's fuzzy. it's so fuzzy and warm and smart i just woke up at 3am and listened to the whole thing on my headfones for no reason

i fake it so real, i am beyonce (surm), Thursday, 13 May 2010 10:58 (sixteen years ago)

now i'm doing my makeup listening to The Whispers

i fake it so real, i am beyonce (surm), Thursday, 13 May 2010 10:59 (sixteen years ago)

i just remembered this time i was at a party, Cassie came on and i up and walked out of the conversation i was in with my cigarette to go into the other room and listen to it

i fake it so real, i am beyonce (surm), Thursday, 13 May 2010 11:09 (sixteen years ago)

Oh, now I'm worried about your health. Smoking is bad for you, Surmounter!

kkvgz, Thursday, 13 May 2010 11:46 (sixteen years ago)

Voted for Veruca, because I've always held a soft spot for that particular album. Love it.

mad kate 4eva.

women are a bunch of dudes (tipsy mothra), Thursday, 13 May 2010 13:39 (sixteen years ago)

Kate Bush vs. Breeders for me, went with the former -- though Pod is actually the Breeders' best album, and Kate's done better than The Dreaming, so now I kinda regret my vote. But, great albums both. Haven't heard the other three.

cool. i don't think i'll vote btw.

"Seether" is a ripping tune.

cool and remote like dancing girls (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Thursday, 13 May 2010 14:22 (sixteen years ago)

I came here to vote for Star or Last Splash and they aren't even here

(Pod please, though I haven't heard that Veruca Salt album in an age, used to like it until someone told me it wasn't cool I guess... teenage self, huh)

xylyl syzygy (a passing spacecadet), Thursday, 13 May 2010 14:27 (sixteen years ago)

haha :) u should pull it out! it has the buzz of last splash

i fake it so real, i am beyonce (surm), Thursday, 13 May 2010 15:41 (sixteen years ago)

Voted Pod. Not only is it a great album but now everytime I hear it I think of that amazing picture of the deal sisters and ilx's own amazing surmounter just looking so god damn happy.

:D

tart w/ a heart (a hoy hoy), Thursday, 13 May 2010 16:04 (sixteen years ago)

haven't heard breeders or veruca salt but the other three are classix

ha! one of the defining moments of my life, easily

i fake it so real, i am beyonce (surm), Thursday, 13 May 2010 16:19 (sixteen years ago)

ramz, or anybody i guess, out of IV, For The Masses and Eight Arms To Fold You*, which VS would recommend to hear first?

*these are the three albums available on spotify.

tart w/ a heart (a hoy hoy), Thursday, 13 May 2010 16:20 (sixteen years ago)

Of those? Definitely definitely Eight Arms! IV is a horrible recent album with just Louise Post. For the Masses, iirc, is a various artist comp of Depeche Mode covers so its really only one Veruca song.

Breeders, def.

silence is a rhythm too (Turangalila), Thursday, 13 May 2010 16:25 (sixteen years ago)

hmm so it is, i obv didn't pay that much attention when looking. when i'm finished listening to pod i will give it a go.

if i ever have a daughter she is being called iris, damn what the hypothetical mother thinks.

WHAT A BOOK SHE WRIIIIIIIIIIITES

i fake it so real, i am beyonce (surm), Thursday, 13 May 2010 16:32 (sixteen years ago)

Cassie's "Me & U" = great twisted blowjob anthem.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

i just want to say that i'm glad this poll has been successful and i appreciate your input, no matter what the outcome is

i fake it so real, i am beyonce (surm), Sunday, 16 May 2010 23:02 (sixteen years ago)

Voted Kate.

Lostandfound, Sunday, 16 May 2010 23:06 (sixteen years ago)

i was listening to "Suspended in Gaffa" when i clicked this thread so that may force my hand a bit but there you have it

ciderpress, Sunday, 16 May 2010 23:07 (sixteen years ago)

This combination of albums is interesting to me: I actually like, admire, and listen to the Kate Bush album, have heard but don't care about the Breeders or Mariah Carey albums, have heard one hit by Veruca Salt, and have never knowingly heard Cassie. I might try the Breeders again or give a listen to Veruca Salt some time. I probably shouldn't vote though.

Sundar, Monday, 17 May 2010 00:34 (sixteen years ago)

I mean, if I tried to list five favourite albums, my list would probably be at least as idiosyncratic and evoke similar reactions. I think that's why I find this interesting.

Sundar, Monday, 17 May 2010 00:36 (sixteen years ago)

Ranking will be:

Kate Bush -- The Dreaming
The Breeders -- Pod

(...large gap...)

Mariah Carey -- The Emancipation of Mimi
Veruca Salt -- American Thighs
Cassie -- Cassie

I just wish he hadn't adopted the "ilxor" moniker (ilxor), Monday, 17 May 2010 13:29 (sixteen years ago)

The only ones I've heard are Kate Bush and Mariah Carey, out of which I love the first one whereas I don't like the second one at all.
