Frippertronics: Review A Random Album Game: K-tel Edition

Frippertronics 11.30.14	Post em. Feel free to ask for two albums, I'll choose from the two or whatsoever...
Frippertronics 11.30.14	ALSO: Only submit an album that does not currently have a review that you would like to see a review for, and don't submit if you don't plan on reviewing.
Supercoolguy64 11.30.14	I submit Cop Shoot Cop - "White Noise"
ChoccyPhilly 11.30.14	Cristobal Tapia De Veer - Utopia Soundtrack
danielcardoso 11.30.14	Izzy Stradlin - Ride On
ExplosiveOranges 11.30.14	Big Nig - Eno Is (Not) Proud Of Me
Frippertronics 11.30.14	but that's just an EP with the same song. choose something else.
laughingman22 11.30.14	heart - dreamboat annie ;)
KriegdemKriege 11.30.14	I'm in. My submission is Chumbawamba - The Boy Bands Have Won
JasonCarne 11.30.14	Te' - ‘Therefore, the illusion of density breach, the to The spelling of the band name and album title is absolutely butchered on here, but it's a pretty cool album that deserves a review.
Frippertronics 11.30.14	yeah, i can see. had to make a few edits like the band name and the album title but it should work out.
wwba 11.30.14	Martin Garrix - Gold Skies ;) it doesn't have a review despite of having track that decisively shaped the electronic music scene
ExplosiveOranges 11.30.14	Ben Frost - Black Marrow
Gameofmetal 11.30.14	Either of Upon This Dawning's albums. I meant to review them myself but the band perplexes me so much. Like I enjoy generic metalcore, but I can't tell if it bores me or not as stupid as this sounds. I probably couldn't review something outside of rock or punk music in general so keep that in mind when you assign me something.
Frippertronics 11.30.14	haha an album released this year shaped the electronic music scene, okay it'll go on.
Jasdevi087 11.30.14	Luna Sea-Eden
Frippertronics 11.30.14	well Game, the whole point of the game is to go outside your comfort zone, so maybe this wouldn't be for you. However, I'd love to see what you could do with something like Gold Skies ("the album that shaped the electronic music scene" as said by the one and only wwba)
Gameofmetal 11.30.14	Yeah I get that it'll most likely be something a little outside of my comfort zone. My usual style is metalcore releases or something so just don't give me something like that. I just feel that I would be a really bad choice to review, say, a jazz album or something. Just letting you know what my comfort zone actually is.
JohnnyoftheWell 11.30.14	John Zorn - The Bribe Sign me up :D
Frippertronics 11.30.14	alright. as of now, jazz is pretty much nowhere to be found. and outside your request, metalcore is non-existent on this list. What I'll do is observe all of your reviews and what you guys have 5'd/4.5'd and go on from there.
ChoccyPhilly 11.30.14	"decisively shaped the electronic music scene" oh wow... just... -_- Please give me this album
ExplosiveOranges 11.30.14	Game, YOU JUST GOTTA BELIIIIIEEEEEEEVE But seriously, even though I got super lucky on the last Review a Random Album Game, I've progressively gotten better and better at reviewing stuff outside of my comfort zone. You just have to try and put some more effort and research into it.
JohnnyoftheWell 11.30.14	"alright. as of now, jazz is pretty much nowhere to be found." Hehe might be guilty for submitting some sort-of jazz...
Gameofmetal 11.30.14	Yeah I figure, so no matter what I get I'll give it an honest try. Btw is there a time limit for getting these done?
Jasdevi087 11.30.14	Haha the ratings for Golden skies 4.5 1.0
Frippertronics 12.01.14	not at all, take your time. just don't take several months to do it like the previous game. that's why this one is so small in comparison.
Let 12.01.14	Simple Minds - New Gold Dream (81-82-83-84) One of the best pop albums of the 80s, it bangs
Archelirion 12.01.14	Saturnus - Veronika Decides to Die Can't believe there isn't one for that already, it rules.
Frippertronics 12.01.14	alright, and with that one, there's three slots left. i'm open to expanding this to 20 if four more people after the assigned 16 are given their albums however.
Frippertronics 12.01.14	(correction: make that 2)
SharkTooth 12.01.14	Fugazi-Fugazi(I'm not entirely sure if i want to make it this however)
SharkTooth 12.01.14	Also:Holy shit Chumbawamba's here I would love to review that!
Phlegm 12.01.14	omg yes please!!!! my pick is Basic Channel - Quadrant Dub
Frippertronics 12.01.14	list is completeeeeee
SharkTooth 12.01.14	nvm plz delete this post
Frippertronics 12.01.14	better decide quick i'm about to give everyone their stuff

Let 12.01.14	Excellent choice Phlegm, got that shit 5'd
Phlegm 12.01.14	(i would love that Ben Frost one =])
Phlegm 12.01.14	(considering i've never wrote a review before [=)
Frippertronics 12.01.14	begging won't do you good :^] but maybe
BMDrummer 12.01.14	ok umm daniel johnston- songs of pain
Phlegm 12.01.14	sweeeet time to put my illiteracy to the test !
BMDrummer 12.01.14	wait shit that has a review, do don't be scared
SharkTooth 12.01.14	"i am reviewing 15 before any of you bastards" Alright Mr. Check Fugazi
Frippertronics 12.01.14	Phlegm: Martin Garrix - Gold Skies SharkTooth: Heart - Dreamboat Annie AaronIsCrunchy: Izzy Stradlin - Ride On Let: Todd Rundgren - A Wizard, A True Star Johnnydeking29: Upon This Dawning - We Are All Sinners Jasdevi087: Fugazi - Fugazi Gameofmetal: Luna Sea - Eden wwba: Cristobal Tapia De Veer - Utopia ExplosiveOranges: Saturnus - Veronika Decides to Die JasonCarne: John Zorn - The Bribe KriegdemKriege: Simple Minds - New Gold Dream (81-82-83-84) Laughingman22: Te' - Therefore, the illusion of density breach, the tottering world “forget” tomorrow Danielcardoso: Ben Frost - Black Marrow ChoccyPhilly: Chumbawamba - The Boy Bands Have Won... Supercoolguy64: Basic Channel - Quadrant Dub Frippertronics: Cop Shoot Cop - White Noise finished.
BMDrummer 12.01.14	exactly
Frippertronics 12.01.14	okay BM, you'll have the cop shoot cop, I'll take the Daniel Johnston
SharkTooth 12.01.14	dammit I wanted to do Chumbawamba
Archelirion 12.01.14	Izzy Stradlin eh? Of G'n'R fame? Could be interesting.
Jasdevi087 12.01.14	Sweeeeeet.
SharkTooth 12.01.14	have you checked Fugazi Jasdevi?
Frippertronics 12.01.14	to be honest, if you asked for something, it was guaranteed you weren't gonna get it :p
BMDrummer 12.01.14	fripp you're gonna have a hard time with that one js
SharkTooth 12.01.14	):
Jethro42 12.01.14	Another winner project by Fripp ;)
Frippertronics 12.01.14	well BM, i did write the Soused review with ease. and it was a collaboration by two artists I've had no prior experience with.
Gameofmetal 12.01.14	Luna Sea eh? Could be fun. I like Dir En Grey and they share the visual kei thing but otherwise it looks a bit different musically. Btw I hope we all know that wwba is gonna put out the worst review ever, as per his trollish usual.
BMDrummer 12.01.14	i don't mean because you've never heard of him, but once you jam it you'll get what i mean
Phlegm 12.01.14	ffs
BMDrummer 12.01.14	what's wrong phlegmy
ChoccyPhilly 12.01.14	Damn, you give my album to the worst user possible. Not enough dance drops initial for him
KriegdemKriege 12.01.14	Cool. Is there a due date for when our reviews should be finished? It might take me a month or so with my schedule right now.
Archelirion 12.01.14	Not gonna lie, Martin Garrix sounds bloody awful.
Jasdevi087 12.01.14	@Sharktooth: no, but I've been meaning to. I'll probably listen to Repeater or something first though.
Frippertronics 12.01.14	yep, i had to be cautious on what to give him. I could've given him the Basic Channel album but phlegm would be steamed about it. Once again, there's no deadline. Just don't take forever to do it.
Frippertronics 12.01.14	plus, Shark and Phlegm got the exact opposite of what they wanted because they asked for them. Got to make it challenging.
Jasdevi087 12.01.14	I'm so glad wwba didn't get the Luna Sea album, that would have been a disaster. Btw Gameofmetal if you have trouble finding Eden http://www.xiami.com/album/268042?spm=0.0.0.0.S8CB37 just click 播放选中歌曲 (the one with the speaker icon).
Let 12.01.14	Fripp your choice sounds insane so far, I think I'm gonna like it
Supercoolguy64 12.01.14	alright mine looks pretty cool. also good luck with cop shoot cop
Frippertronics 12.01.14	dude, you're gonna love it. 56 minutes of progressive pop insanity. Side one is pretty much a suite, side two an assortment of 50s/60s love songs and a few originals. The 2005 remaster is essential as it has more drive than the original version, which lacked fidelity.
BMDrummer 12.01.14	is it hard to describe or something? seems like i would dig
Gameofmetal 12.01.14	Jas I'm not seeing anything with a speaker icon and nothing on the page is pulling up any method of listening to the album that I can tell. Also that text in your comment doesn't appear to be on the page in that exact order. It's kinda hard to tell tbh because they all look the same to my sheltered white american ass.
Supercoolguy64 12.01.14	@BMD no i was just saying good luck and all, you'd might like it tbh
Judio! 12.01.14	lel
Frippertronics 12.01.14	judio you bich i guarantee this will have all the reviews done by 4/1/15
Supercoolguy64 12.01.14	"judio you bich i guarantee this will have all the reviews done by 4/1/14" because it's not like 2014 is almost over or anything...
JasonCarne 12.01.14	Oh jeez, a Zorn record hahahah.
Frippertronics 12.01.14	yeah i messed up
Phlegm 12.01.14	https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dzHdo4yxidc help
Jasdevi087 12.01.14	Gameofmetal it should be under the tracklist, the third button from the left.
Jasdevi087 12.01.14	rip Phlegm.
Frippertronics 12.01.14	enjoy phlegm
Let 12.01.14	Sorry bea
ChoccyPhilly 12.01.14	Nah come on. gold skies seems like a pretty easy EP to review if anything
Let 12.01.14	He might have to listen to it though
ChoccyPhilly 12.01.14	Yeah but it would be fun to tear apart, especially with the amount of praise the man is getting
Phlegm 12.01.14	i hadn't even heard of him up until now, should be a laugh though yeah ~
ChoccyPhilly 12.01.14	He's the one who did that song 'Animals', which was just lol
Let 12.01.14	Jesus Christ that view count
Supercoolguy64 12.01.14	That Basic Channel 12" was pretty good, hopefully i'll have a review for it sometime next week
SharkTooth 12.01.14	"Shark and Phlegm got the exact opposite of what they wanted because they asked for them." lol both are folk-punk albums from the looks of it
Gameofmetal 12.01.14	Jas I'm not seeing anything by your description. It's not on spotify, which I pretty much figured anyway. Is there a youtube stream?
Jasdevi087 12.01.14	Gameofmetal, no there isn't a stream on youtube. Try searching for www.xiami.com Type Luna sea into the search bar at the top of the page (wait for luna sea to appear in the drop down bar) On the band page, scroll down to where a bunch of random albums from them are listed and click the second tab (录音室专辑) Eden should be on the second page of albums that come up On Eden's page go down to where the tracks are listed Under the tracks should be that button, the stream will open in a new tab See if that helps.
ChoccyPhilly 12.01.14	wow, I quite like my assigned album but it's gonna be quite difficult to review
Keyblade 12.01.14	Quadrant Dub is gonna get a review, yess. God bless u Flemm
Jasdevi087 12.01.14	That better work because god help me, Eden is getting a review!
KriegdemKriege 12.02.14	Choccy, I'm glad you like it. It's one of my all-time favorite albums. It is hard to review though. DONT LET ME DOWN
Gameofmetal 12.02.14	Oh Jas, Frip just posted a torrent for me to download it so I'm all good on hearing it.
ChoccyPhilly 12.02.14	No promises, krieg! Can this just get featured already? I can never remember how to spell the name of my damn assignment
SharkTooth 12.02.14	chum-ba-wam-ba it's not that hard dude, lemme know if you need any help with the review
Jasdevi087 12.02.14	@Gameofmetal ok then, enjoy.
Frippertronics 12.02.14	Shark, you messed up. Chum-ba-wam-ba
SharkTooth 12.02.14	you saw nothin'
KriegdemKriege 12.02.14	So Sharktooth, best band ever, right?
ChoccyPhilly 12.02.14	lol it's just the kind of album I imagine myself aging to and that's not necessarily a bad thing
KriegdemKriege 12.02.14	Heck yeah!
KriegdemKriege 12.02.14	Their discography is fantastic. Very diverse.
Frippertronics 12.03.14	bump?
Phlegm 12.03.14	gonna make a start next week
SharkTooth 12.03.14	Ehh? my assigned album just didn't register much with me tbh, I'm gonna try my best, but I'm expecting a duplicate of my Echo Tail review (the paragraphs on that were short af)
SharkTooth 12.03.14	Also that album artwork makes me want to puke
laughingman22 12.03.14	yeah girls are gross, cooties and such if it is a problem and no one else cares I can give you a different album to review
SharkTooth 12.03.14	The girls are fine, but the cover in general looks soooo cheesy...
SharkTooth 12.03.14	"So Sharktooth, best band ever, right?" hell yeah m8
Gameofmetal 12.03.14	So I guess I should probably listen to that Luna Sea album so I can review it huh kinda just been sitting in my downloaded torrents folder
Gameofmetal 12.03.14	Ugh double post
Supercoolguy64 12.09.14	my rev's up: http://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/65275/Basic-Channel-Quadrant-Dub/
SharkTooth 12.09.14	"if it is a problem and no one else cares I can give you a different album to review" I would really like that, 'cause I think my Heart review would prob turn out to be shit lol
ChoccyPhilly 12.09.14	Wow, that was quick
Frippertronics 12.09.14	@Shark or you could step up to the challenge and see it through.
Jasdevi087 12.09.14	Come on Gameofmetal, don't let me down like Dodenakker did. Mine's like half-done, if I don't finish it today I will finish it sometime this week.
Gameofmetal 12.09.14	I've listened to the album once, but I'm thinking I'm gonna need at least three total listens and I need to do some research on the style for sure. Besides I promised to do a review of a user made album, which is sitting in the proofreading section now. Luna Sea is up next.
laughingman22 12.09.14	@shark what about a review for Funkadelic's Hardcore Jollies since the heart stigma may be too much to overcome
SharkTooth 12.09.14	okay THAT I can do
TychoBrahe 12.09.14	Ganksta N.I.P. "The South Park Psycho" It's christmas time, happy new years G. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=awP8PIJtbP8
Archelirion 12.09.14	I might need someone to take mine over for me; my computer packed up today and I might not have one I can use realistically until January.
Jasdevi087 12.09.14	Write it out by hand and take a picture with your phone. Then upload it to imgur.
Frippertronics 12.09.14	No worries. There's no deadline. Just don't go MIA.
KriegdemKriege 12.09.14	Lol I'm not even starting mine until January. Stop trying to bail Aaron! Love your avatar Fripp
Archelirion 12.10.14	Haha, it's decided to work again but it's definitely not well! I won't bail on this now anyway, I thought it was an 'end-of-year-or-bust' thing!
Jasdevi087 12.12.14	Did it, Fugazi checked: http://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/65312/Fugazi-Fugazi/
SharkTooth 12.15.14	It's done and it probably sucks http://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/65333/Heart-Dreamboat-Annie/
Frippertronics 12.15.14	neg
SharkTooth 12.15.14	you're so generous
Frippertronics 12.15.14	i know
danielcardoso 01.03.15	Hey Fripp, I've talked to Oranges and I told him that I don't feel comfortable about reviewing his Ben Frost album. It's not that I found it bad, it's just that it's a genre I know shit about, and my review for it probably suck so much. If you could arrange a trade for me, I'd enjoy it a lot. Perhaps, an album more within my music preference, but I'd honestly be happy with anything that's not electronic or death/black metal.
Jasdevi087 01.03.15	Swap with Phlegm.
Frippertronics 01.04.15	Phlegm is keeping his. Daniel, I can choose something for you. http://www.sputnikmusic.com/soundoff.php?albumid=171520 one choice...
danielcardoso 01.04.15	Oh man, I used to listen to Captain Beefheart a lot a couple of years back. Never checked that out, though. I'll take it Fripp, thanks man.
Gameofmetal 01.11.15	posting my Luna Sea - Eden review now Fripp
Frippertronics 01.11.15	alright
ChoccyPhilly 01.24.15	Lads, I'm going to be so busy until July, so if I don't post my review til march, I probably never will
Frippertronics 02.23.15	forgot to bump this after I did mine http://www.sputnikmusic.com/album/32466/Todd-Rundgren-A-Wizard-A-True-Star/
