06.14.18 | this should be long and tedious and will never get finished.. like the best pornos.. |
Conmaniac
06.14.18 | hey...I finished my 101 psych list u better watch ur mouth |
Conmaniac
06.14.18 | also as we decided, 40 recs are "free" recs but I'll post 6 categories for 10 albums to help guide the rest of Papa's recs for me |
Papa Universe
06.14.18 | let the games begin |
AsleepInTheBack
06.14.18 | hypeee |
Papa Universe
06.14.18 | I'm predicting a lot of whiny emo. |
Conmaniac
06.14.18 | post ur categories of recs here Papa |
Papa Universe
06.14.18 | oi, so 40 you can rec as you please, then:
10 from your childhood
10 generally (or locally) harshly underappreciated albums
10 bittersweet albums (disguised as happy-go-lucky, but hiding a harrowing darkness; or vice versa, sounding depressed and downtrodden, but ending up actually feeling positive)
10 from 2018
10 that someone else tells you to recommed (just ask your family, friends, colleagues or random bygoers to give you one album, unless you think it defeats the purpose)
and the last tenner I'll proclaim at some point later |
Conmaniac

Conmaniac
06.14.18 | oh hell yes nice s/t 4...btw its really hard finding childhood recs cuz youd either despise it or youve already heard it ahah |
Papa Universe
06.14.18 | yeah, it's difficult, considering that when your childhood bands were starting out, I was probably somewhere critiquing them already, saying sth like "well, they'll never make it big with that sloppy sound" |
Conmaniac
06.14.18 | hahaha u old mugger |
Papa Universe
06.14.18 | bitch, I was fucking Third Eye Blind's members' mommas before your or their balls even grew, you opinionated placozoa |

black metal |
Papa Universe
06.14.18 | good luck on that |
Conmaniac
06.14.18 | does blackgaze count? |
Papa Universe
06.14.18 | sure |
Conmaniac
06.15.18 | aite imma dump some recs ur way |
Papa Universe
06.15.18 | Go for it. Gonna have to delay the Green listening, Protomartyr have an EP out. |
neekafat
06.15.18 | This actually looks like a lot of fun, I might wanna do this with someone but 100 albums is a little insane |
Conmaniac
06.15.18 | im more than a lil insane |
Papa Universe
06.15.18 | You're all insane, only I am an airplane. Brrrrrrrrr |
Conmaniac
06.15.18 | speaking of Duster, I see you havent rated Stratosphere...put that as a free rec |

Egarran
06.17.18 | This is like watching gay porn. |
Papa Universe

Egarran
06.17.18 | I'm not complaining
no homo |
Papa Universe
06.17.18 | this is the most bloated minimalistic circlejerk there is. |
Conmaniac
06.17.18 | hell yeah it’s sexy |
Papa Universe
06.18.18 | I'll have to skip this today, because I still have taht random tourney to get through and I've been jamming The Used three times now and I feel like I'm ready to write something up for it. |
Conmaniac
06.18.18 | MEC writeup when tho? |
Papa Universe
06.18.18 | oh yeah. so there will be something up tonight. |
ZombieToyDuck
06.18.18 | you've been jamming the used?! NICE |
Papa Universe
06.18.18 | MEC is up.
and don't get your hopes up, Zombie |
ZombieToyDuck
06.18.18 | sigh... |
Conmaniac
06.18.18 | nice...
and he rec'd The Used for my list so I might dig Josh... |
Papa Universe
06.18.18 | who rec'd The Used for what list? |
Conmaniac
06.18.18 | may or may not of mistaken The Used for The Armed... |
Papa Universe
06.19.18 | 51, Hobo Johnson is up. |
osmark86
06.19.18 | you two, Dewinged and Doofus really are going all in on quantity as of late ain't ya? |
Papa Universe
06.19.18 | The Fantastic Four |
osmark86
06.19.18 | heard Frogstomp yet? |
Papa Universe
06.19.18 | the tags were discouraging for me, so no |
osmark86
06.19.18 | probably wise. as for bm though, check out Skogen - Svitjod if only for the amazing track Vinterriket |
Papa Universe
06.19.18 | yeah okay, that track is bloody good |
Conmaniac
06.19.18 | yeah put that album as my rec or whatever hahaha
also i will TAKE a 2 for Hobo Johnson hell yea
also underrated Ghostemane - Hexeda |
Papa Universe
06.19.18 | don't flatter yourself, the arrangement was more lush than Hobo deserves |
Conmaniac
06.19.18 | the beats n structure are what make it for me. and while i sometimes appreciate his delivery he needs a consistent flow...and to also stop breathing so dramatically ahahha |
Conmaniac
06.19.18 | ya gave Kid Cudi a nice 3 for the album I also gave a 3...
so I rec for my Childhood rec his classic Man on the Moon |
Conmaniac
06.19.18 | FREE: who loves you - talkin shit about yr friends |
Conmaniac
06.19.18 | ok I asked my co-workers, ages vary and so do the recs:
Foo Fighters - Echoes...
Boston - s/t
2pac - until the end of time |
Papa Universe
06.19.18 | I'mma add Caribou from that butcher's list for the Someone Else category, okay? |
neekafat
06.19.18 | Echos is really underrated yeah |
Papa Universe
06.19.18 | then I shall go and rate it |
Conmaniac
06.19.18 | wait i dont think you understood me Papa, I meant he rec'd me albums and u could add those to mine. but Caribou works too |
Papa Universe
06.19.18 | okay, I'll add the rest of his recs too (apart from Deep Turtle, cause I already know it's a doozie) |
Papa Universe
06.19.18 | should I add them for Someone Else? |
Conmaniac
06.19.18 | wat no i want them on my list not urs |
Papa Universe
06.19.18 | oh... okay. |
Conmaniac
06.19.18 | hahah he rec'd them for me so that makes sense right? esp if you love the Deep Turtle album |
Conmaniac
06.21.18 | bittersweet: Heyrocco - teenage movie soundtrack |
Conmaniac
06.21.18 | it's close enough to black metal I think... Mare - S/T |

Conmaniac
06.21.18 | another free I think you'd adore: Candy Claws - Ceres... |

Conmaniac
06.21.18 | not at all |
Papa Universe
06.21.18 | so should I put it under FREE then? |
Conmaniac
06.21.18 | yeah sure might be best |
Conmaniac
06.21.18 | you jammin any of these? |
Papa Universe
06.21.18 | currently trying to finish all the other recs before getting into this full time.
tomorrow's a release day, so I'll probably mostly jam the new stuff too. |
Conmaniac
06.21.18 | you do you man |
Papa Universe
06.21.18 | speaking of other recs. gotta go update that tacos' tourney |
Conmaniac
06.22.18 | ok lemme get a good batch of recs in |
Conmaniac
06.22.18 | CHILDHOOD:
Minus the Bear - Planet Ice (band that got me into "emo")
Elliott Smith - XO and Either/Or (how do u not have this guy rated?)
Maroon 5 - Songs About Jane (terrible band but this album was something else)
Bittersweet:
Adjy - Grammartology
FREE:

Slint - Spiderland
The Notwist - Neon Golden
Damien Rice - O
Patrick Watson - Close to Paradise / Adventures in Your Own Backyard
Tigers Jaw - S/T
All Human - Teenagers, You Don't Have to Die
Archy Marshall - A New Place 2 Drown
Closure in Moscow - Pink Lemonade |
Papa Universe
06.22.18 | Gimme gimme gimme. |
Conmaniac
06.22.18 | ask n you shall receive |
Papa Universe
06.22.18 | Elliott Smith, Damien Rice and Tigers Jaw go away. |
Conmaniac
06.22.18 | rate Elliott Smith that's essential man |
Conmaniac
06.22.18 | 2018:
Stippling - Perfect Life |
Conmaniac
06.22.18 | Underrated: The Obsessives - S/T |
Papa Universe
06.22.18 | I've heard the Obsessives and Elliott Smith I reject for your own good. I detest Phil Elverum, so this dweeb I'll probably kill myself for. |
Conmaniac
06.22.18 | alright then... |
Papa Universe
06.22.18 | The Notwist I've heard too, but eons ago, so will be nice to rejam.
Hell, might get on that right now. |
Conmaniac
06.22.18 | do itttt, such a good album man |
Papa Universe
06.22.18 | The Notwist is up |
Conmaniac
06.22.18 | Pick Up the Phone is 10/10 yesss |
Papa Universe
06.23.18 | 16, Slint is up... sorry. |
Conmaniac
06.23.18 | not that I care that much but did you really just give Hobo Johnson a higher score than Spiderland?? |
Papa Universe
06.23.18 | yes. Hobo is a sqeuaking castration only in voice (and often in lyrics), but the arrangement is fine. Spiderland doesn't have that much (intelligible) vocals, but is utterly obnoxious musically. |
Papa Universe
06.24.18 | 12, Candy Claws is up. |
Conmaniac
06.24.18 | 3.1 is not what i expected damn.... |
Papa Universe
06.24.18 | If it eases your soul, the second half is way superior to the first. All-in-all it just seemed like the production was dragging everything down into a repetitive samey mess, where you couldn't pick up any instruments if your life depended on it. |
Papa Universe
06.24.18 | (It probably doesn't help, does it?) |
Conmaniac
06.25.18 | I think the disorienting production adds to the feel / purpose...as if you're walking through a tropical wonderland in the evening. love it |
Papa Universe
06.25.18 | I hate summer and humid air. Tropical ain't my thing. |
Conmaniac
06.25.18 | also ur descriptions are just referring to your two lists, no actual write up lol |
Papa Universe
06.25.18 | *twirling his moustache of evil* |
Conmaniac
06.25.18 | well time for some recs huh? |
Conmaniac
06.25.18 | ooh u gave Awaken My Love! a 4.5, correct score. now put Childish Gambino - Because the Internet under Underrated |
Conmaniac
06.25.18 | Skull Kid - Protection Charm |
Papa Universe
06.25.18 | ^ FREE? |
Conmaniac
06.25.18 | yeah man, u jammin any of these today? |
Papa Universe
06.25.18 | Jars of Clay |
Conmaniac
06.25.18 | oh that'll be interesting |
Papa Universe
06.25.18 | yeah... yeah |
Papa Universe
06.25.18 | 42, Jars of Clay are up. |
Papa Universe
06.25.18 | feel like listening to Midnight Oil for whatever reason. that whole album reminded me of Beds Are Burning, but the vocals are agonising in a different way |
Conmaniac
06.25.18 | lift me up ): |
Papa Universe
06.25.18 | sure |
Papa Universe
06.25.18 | but that was my favourite tho... probably because the singer actually shows some emotion in his vocal range |
Conmaniac
06.25.18 | a 1.5, 3 2's and 2 4.5's...this is pretty divisive |
AsleepInTheBack
06.25.18 | 16 is absent of substance? da fuk? |
AsleepInTheBack
06.25.18 | 17 is indeed fab though. predicting you'll find something to enjoy in 3 too. |
Conmaniac
06.25.18 | papa reacting like any 40-some year old would back in 1993 about their use of dynamics and how they tease expectations. not too surprised just a bit concerned he thinks Hobo Johnson has more musical merit |
Papa Universe
06.25.18 | "this is pretty divisive"
i'm not easy to please
"16 is absent of substance?"
yes. pretty unmistakably so |
AsleepInTheBack
06.25.18 | "yes. pretty unmistakably so"
dang flabbit. Google: how can someone be this wrong? |
Papa Universe
06.25.18 | "how they tease expectations"
well, it sure is clever to pretend something of merit is about to occur and then purposefully taking a dump on that idea like "huh, didn't expect that, did ya?", but at the end of the day the dump has been laid and no matter how intentional, it is still a dump.
"he thinks Hobo Johnson has more musical merit"
in comparison probably not by large (hell, maybe not at all. at least Slint have some cultural significance), but at large probably incomparably yes. |
Papa Universe
06.25.18 | "how can someone be this wrong?"
Google answer returns: Mirrors on Amazon below $100 |
Papa Universe
06.25.18 | hey, i also think Phil Elverum is a talentless scab |
Conmaniac
06.25.18 | but ya dig Conor Oberst? both v similar in vocal style id say |
Papa Universe
06.25.18 | eh. i suppose it's about how you construct the song and how you make the arrangement and the song-writing work for the vocal chops you have. |
AsleepInTheBack
06.25.18 | "hey, i also think Phil Elverum is a talentless scab"
ima cut you |
Papa Universe
06.25.18 | come at me. i spoke truth to power. i 1d mount eerie. i made a list of 10 4.4+ average albums i am planning to 1. i aint scared of some kid with feelings he doesnt really understand |
Papa Universe
06.25.18 | I am Cyclotron with a cause! |
AsleepInTheBack
06.25.18 | don't you sully the good name of Cyclotron, how dare you |
Papa Universe
06.25.18 | i dare plenty, you tootless boob |
AsleepInTheBack
06.25.18 | class burn, i'll allow it |
Conmaniac
06.25.18 | just jam another album mate |
Papa Universe
06.25.18 | what's the most joyous album on here? some hapless teenager got me all riled up and ready to squeezle the peezle |
Papa Universe
06.25.18 | i need a distraction, you cheerful pup |
Conmaniac
06.25.18 | 22 by far |
Papa Universe
06.25.18 | 22 it is then. |
Conmaniac
06.25.18 | have fun! |
Papa Universe
06.25.18 | hope to |
Conmaniac
06.25.18 | u better |
Papa Universe
06.25.18 | 22, Closure in Moscow is up. |
Conmaniac
06.26.18 | dudeeee...exactly my thoughts on the album! I despise that proggy shit and it’s soooo close to it but it’s almost like..parodying it?? crazy. good score i approve |
Papa Universe
06.26.18 | Man, that Wall Builder Sadness song is a fucking jam. |
Papa Universe
06.26.18 | It has a certain Thank You Scientist meet Kindo vibe, but more sensible instrumental arrangement. |
Conmaniac
06.26.18 | with that in mind imma send a some more recs ur way |
Conmaniac
06.26.18 | FREE: The Bright Light Social Hour - Space is Still the Place
BITTERSWEET: WU LYF - Go Tell It Up the Mountain |
Papa Universe

Papa Universe

Conmaniac

62, Oso Oso |
Conmaniac
07.03.18 | huh do you not dig King Krule? |
Papa Universe
07.03.18 | this seems to be much, much, much duller. is that even possible? |
Conmaniac
07.03.18 | also even tho it’s only a 3 I technically will call Oso Oso a bittersweet success |
Papa Universe
07.04.18 | 75, stippling is up. |
Conmaniac
07.06.18 | ooh did not expect that 4...nice stuff |
Conmaniac
07.09.18 | check uh CLIQUE - Burden Piece (free) since u liked Stippling

Papa Universe
07.09.18 | but you gots to have heard em, bub |
Conmaniac
07.09.18 | yeah I dont think ive heard 10 black metal albums, let alone 10 ones you havent heard yet |
Papa Universe
07.09.18 | you wanna change the category? |
Conmaniac
07.09.18 | it's your category so up to you |
Papa Universe
07.09.18 | okay, new category is DARK AND CRUSHING, meaning albums with dense, often terrifying atmosphere that feel like they're just bludgeoning you with their noir weight |
Papa Universe
07.09.18 | doesn't have to be heavy metal music, it can also be something like Total Depravity by The Veils, which is just dark as fuck |
Papa Universe
07.09.18 | you still want Skogen up? |
Conmaniac
07.09.18 | right so if that's so, put my Mare rec in there, but I have many of those! |
Conmaniac
07.09.18 | and no I havent listened to that one so delete it! |
Papa Universe
07.09.18 | that's fine, I'll listen to it either way |
Papa Universe
07.12.18 | should have mentioned, I listened to Ghotemane, but still kind of struggle with what to say. will listen to it again (or will try to) later and see what happens. |
Conmaniac
07.12.18 | oh man did you despise it? |
ZombieToyDuck
07.12.18 | Can I pleaseeeee be a someone else rec??? |
Conmaniac
07.12.18 | yeah man tell me what youd rec him and ill pass along the word |
Papa Universe

You'll see. |
ZombieToyDuck
07.12.18 | SWEET, lemme think and figure out what I wanna rec. |
ZombieToyDuck
07.12.18 | Papa have you listened to mewithoutYou? |
Conmaniac
07.12.18 | it appears he hasnt |
ZombieToyDuck
07.12.18 | hmm question Papa, would you prefer.... a concept album, a loosely themed album or a more "artsy" album for lack of a better word. |
Conmaniac
07.12.18 | nah he cant answer that |
Conmaniac
07.12.18 | at least the point of this category is to have ppl he doesnt rly know rec him rando albums |
ZombieToyDuck
07.12.18 | OH i seeeeee |
Conmaniac
07.12.18 | "10 that someone else tells you to recommed (just ask your family, friends, colleagues or random bygoers to give you one album, unless you think it defeats the purpose)" |
ZombieToyDuck
07.12.18 | well fuck it throw him Ten Stories by mewithoutYou |
Conmaniac
07.12.18 | hey Papa some random person just told me to rec you this:
Ten Stories by mewithoutYou (someone else) |
ZombieToyDuck
07.12.18 | It's a concept album (I'd honestly recommend you both check it out) cause its insanely good |
Papa Universe
07.12.18 | Connor, I'm gonna take a wild guess and say that that was rec'd by your underage cousin. |
Conmaniac
07.12.18 | woah howd you know |
Papa Universe
07.12.18 | just the look of it |
ZombieToyDuck

Papa Universe

ZombieToyDuck

Papa Universe
07.12.18 | *URLs his eyes |
ZombieToyDuck

Papa Universe

Conmaniac
07.12.18 | put ghostemane up |
Papa Universe
07.12.18 | I'm trying. |
Conmaniac
07.12.18 | okay aha...im scared |
Papa Universe
07.12.18 | well, isn't that what he's trying for? |
Conmaniac
07.12.18 | maybe |
Papa Universe
07.12.18 | boo |
Conmaniac
07.12.18 | what have you done |
Papa Universe
07.12.18 | 52, Ghostemane is up. |
Conmaniac
07.12.18 | oh man youre gonna love my rap career then |
Conmaniac
07.12.18 | if anything, this went as expected |
Papa Universe
07.12.18 | I've heard your buddies rap (the one you made a video for) and I can say that your emo-tions might be an improvement upon that. |
ZombieToyDuck
07.12.18 | "not out of his puberty emo phase gets thrown out of his Falling in Reverse tribute band"
lol |
Conmaniac
07.12.18 | oh my buddy n I are doing songs together but im mostly yelling |
Papa Universe
07.12.18 | that's called "modern soundcloud emo rap", so you're gonna do just fine |
Papa Universe
07.12.18 | but you have what to strive for:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eBCmDbVwnoQ |
Conmaniac
07.12.18 | oh grreattt |
Pheromone
07.12.18 | 17 is such a fucking classic |
Conmaniac
07.12.18 | yeah it fucking is |
Papa Universe
07.12.18 | [2] |
Conmaniac
07.16.18 | whats next my man |
Papa Universe
07.16.18 | I've actually been on quite a roll recently, since this week I don't participate in the prog tourney. I've heard 4 of these albums now (13, 48, 53, 84), but only one of them twice, so I still want to give them at least a second shot. |
Conmaniac
07.16.18 | oh amazing man, ill see if I can throw some more recs ur way then |
Conmaniac
07.16.18 | Dark and Crushing:
Lowercase - kill the lights
Cult of Luna - Salvation
Old Man Gloom - Seminar III: Zozobra
The Pax Cecilia - Blessed are the Bonds |
Papa Universe
07.16.18 | I see you interpreted "dark and crushing" as heavy and metal |
Conmaniac
07.16.18 | brooding tones, all p emotionally crushing, def dark. is that not what you wanted? |
Papa Universe
07.16.18 | it might be exactly what I wanted... we'll see |
Conmaniac
07.16.18 | yeah its more post-metal shit instead of black metal but other than some select doom those are the only types I really enjoy cuz they are p similar |
Conmaniac
07.16.18 | Underrated: The Obsessives - s/t |
Papa Universe
07.16.18 | "I've heard the Obsessives and Elliott Smith I reject for your own good. I detest Phil Elverum, so this dweeb I'll probably kill myself for."
I've answered it to your first Obsessives request, but now I realise that I only heard their first album and this is something else. |
Conmaniac
07.16.18 | it's way way diff, definitely not emo anymore tbh |
Conmaniac
07.16.18 | underrated: Radiator Hospital - Play the Songs You Like
imma try to keep this cat for a 1 pt difference at least but it'll be hard |
Papa Universe
07.16.18 | i have a feeling that i've either heard or slightly jammed that album, but it's still up |
Conmaniac
07.16.18 | ok cool, yeah underrated will be tough but maybe ill start trying to find some sub-3.5 albums that are good for it |
Conmaniac
07.16.18 | post an album n surprise me |
Papa Universe
07.16.18 | first of all I am ready to call the shots on Maroon 5, so that is up. making a write up for Clique now |
Conmaniac
07.16.18 | very fair! its by far their best album |
Conmaniac
07.16.18 | worried but slightly optimistic bout CLIQUE... |
Papa Universe
07.16.18 | and Clique is up too |
Conmaniac
07.16.18 | hell yea what i expected, Top Field is best too nice |
Conmaniac
07.16.18 | also have u heard The Caretaker? |
Papa Universe
07.16.18 | some, but doubt that in full. at least I don't have it in the ratings, so rec away |
Conmaniac
07.16.18 | The Caretaker - Empty Bliss Beyond This World
I URGE u to read about the concept before listening tho. conceptually I think my favorite album ever made even if the music is relatively simple |
Conmaniac
07.16.18 | actually here:
The Caretaker conjures a quieter, more introspective spirit, lost in his own mind amidst a low-lit labyrinth of ever-decaying and antediluvian shellac phrases. Sourced from a mysterious collection of 78s, these vague snippets of archaic sonics reflect the ability of Alzheimers patients to recall the songs of their past, and with them recollections of places, people, moods and sensations. |
Conmaniac
07.16.18 | oh put it under Free |
Papa Universe
07.16.18 | Free? |
Conmaniac
07.16.18 | yee |
Papa Universe
07.17.18 | Caribou and Childish Gambino are up. |
Conmaniac
07.17.18 | our love was russian roulette I had the safety on...
I'll take that 3 tho and glad u found another 4.5 worthy album! |
Conmaniac
07.19.18 | whats next? |
Papa Universe
07.22.18 | Prince Daddy and the Hyena are next. |
Papa Universe
07.22.18 | 3, Prince Daddy and the Hyena is up. |
Papa Universe
07.23.18 | 66, WU LYF is up. |
Papa Universe
07.23.18 | fuck I love the near post-rock-y finish to Cave Song |
Conmaniac
07.24.18 | woah u dug Prince daddy YES
and ya WU LYF is bliss dude |
Conmaniac
07.24.18 | ok since u liked the fuzziness of prince daddy and listened to the worst of the two albums by this band (and still gave it a 3) here's a FREE rec:
Happy Diving - Big World |
Conmaniac
07.24.18 | and here's some more...
FREE: (since u rec'd me some rap ill do the same)
Gangsta Pat - Deadly Verses
Chester Watson - Past Cloaks
Jons - At Work on Several Things (some psych u missed)
Dark/Crushing:
Black Wing - ...Is Doomed
Giles Corey - s/t
2018:
Hot Mulligan - Pilot
Anna Von Hausswolff - Dead Magic |
Papa Universe
07.26.18 | I know Giles Corey and Black Wing well. |
Papa Universe
07.26.18 | (I'm correcting the vote-less mistake as we speak... or I speak) |
Conmaniac
07.30.18 | ohh shoot those would've been good recs ): |
Conmaniac
07.30.18 | dark and crushing:
ostraca - last
nouns - still
the newfound interest in Connecticut - tell me about the long dark path home |
Conmaniac
07.30.18 | bittersweet:
arbes - psalms |
bgillesp
07.30.18 | That Gambino rating is tragic.
2018:
The Bamboos- Night Time People
(Shhh Con, he might not notice this isn't you) |
Conmaniac
07.30.18 | yeah shouldve been a straight 5/5 u rite |
bgillesp
07.30.18 | It's a 4.2 for me but def no 3.1 |
Conmaniac
07.30.18 | ayyy good shit dude i like u (; |
bgillesp
07.30.18 | 😘 |
Conmaniac
07.30.18 | jam one of these papa |
Papa Universe
07.30.18 | so do I add the Bamboos too? |
sixdegrees
07.30.18 | check 67 |
Conmaniac
07.30.18 | aka where Arbes - Psalms is gonna go six?
also if u wanna go for it but do it under "Someone Else" |
Papa Universe
07.30.18 | done |
Papa Universe
07.30.18 | I'm listening to Desaparecidos, just as I'm writing up a write-up for the tacos' lesser-known albums tourney and my still-running unknown tourney. |
sixdegrees
07.30.18 | despacito? |
Papa Universe
07.30.18 | yeah, but with the opposite effect, that is alienating the chicas |
Conmaniac
07.30.18 | damn what? and u dug Fevers & Mirrors? |
Papa Universe
07.30.18 | nah. Despacito is about (I assume) getting them ladies. Desaparecidos are a tad angsty. Not exactly a ladykiller. |
Conmaniac
07.30.18 | try joining an emo band and see if that changes ur mind |
Papa Universe
07.30.18 | I missed out on all such opportunities. Joined a punk band once, but got married too soon. No more promiscuity for the ol' papa-unity. |
Conmaniac
07.30.18 | heheh congrats tho |
butt.
07.30.18 | how can you guys do stuff like this and not get completely burnt out on all music |
Conmaniac
07.30.18 | 1-2 albums a day (if that) is not bad...and if I dont feel like doing it (like i did for a full week-ish) then I just dont lol. its fun dont judge |
Papa Universe
07.30.18 | I have a rule of listening to a minimum of one new album every day and I usually get to two or three a day. I'm not burnt out on listeng, but I do find it increasingly more difficult to round up my thoughts in a way I haven't already previously done. |
Conmaniac
07.30.18 | ya that became true for me as well over the course of my psych list thing. you get over it tho |
Papa Universe
07.30.18 | couldn't get back on reviewing full time, though |
Papa Universe
07.30.18 | 6, Desaparecidos is up. |
Conmaniac
07.31.18 | woooo!
glad ur digging the Conor Oberst recs |
Papa Universe
07.31.18 | 86, The Bamboos are up. |
bgillesp
08.01.18 | Where is the description? Also 1lpd |
Conmaniac
08.01.18 | whyd u put it in both 2018 and someone else? just keep it in someone else not 2018 |
Papa Universe
08.01.18 | cause I want to experience it twice anew |
Conmaniac
08.01.18 | uhh no thats not how this works |
Conmaniac
08.01.18 | how many recs in each category do i have? |
Papa Universe
08.01.18 | 12 free
2 childhood
5 underrated
3 bittersweet
2 2018

Conmaniac
08.01.18 | here's an underrated: narra - s/t |

Papa Universe

Conmaniac

Papa Universe

Conmaniac
08.01.18 | yeah, i do, I think? |

Papa Universe
08.01.18 | well is about right. a deep and hollow well |
Papa Universe
08.01.18 | 41, Candlebox is unfortunately up. |
neekafat

Conmaniac
08.02.18 | how so? |
bgillesp

Papa Universe
08.02.18 | I did, just go to the July resumé. |
bgillesp

Papa Universe
08.02.18 | http://aemstatic-ww1.azureedge.net/content/dam/Pennenergy/online-articles/2014/05/snidely_whiplash.jpg |
bgillesp
08.02.18 | :( |
Conmaniac
08.02.18 | he's done this before |
Papa Universe
08.02.18 | and I'll do it again. |
Conmaniac
08.02.18 | that's silly and kinda cheating |
Papa Universe
08.02.18 | you calls it cheating. I calls it a clever trick.
thesaurus |
Conmaniac
08.02.18 | yea ok well dont be surprised if it happens to u now |

08.06.18 | Is this a question? |
Papa Universe
08.06.18 | This is a statement! |
Conmaniac
08.06.18 | isnt that an exclamation? |
Papa Universe
08.06.18 | That is a capitalisation of the first letter in the sentence. |
Papa Universe

Papa Universe

Conmaniac
08.15.18 | agreed hard at the description but surprised at the low-ish rating |
Papa Universe
08.16.18 | well, some individuals around here might suggest that that rating equals 7/10, so take that as you wish |
Conmaniac
08.16.18 | true true but I'm aiming for those 8s my boi |
Papa Universe
08.16.18 | 23, Skull Kid is up. |

ZombieToyDuck
12.10.18 | hell yeah papa, about time! Interesting favorites but nonetheless glad you enjoyed it |
Papa Universe
12.10.18 | what are the conventional highlights if not these? |
ZombieToyDuck
12.10.18 | Foxes dream of log flume, Elephant in the Dock, February, 1878 tend to be pretty popular |
Papa Universe
12.10.18 | well, it was between those two and February, 1878, so I'm not that far off. |
ZombieToyDuck
12.10.18 | It's all really good to me so no complaints! |
Papa Universe
12.23.18 | 77, Hot Mulligan is up. |
Papa Universe
01.21.19 | could you imagine?
71, Why Not is up. |
Papa Universe
05.08.19 | you won't believe this, this still lives. we took hiatus, Connor will be hopefully back at his side once all the buzz with education is over, I waited with posting my meanwhile listens for this glorious dump of opinions:
5, Swordfish is up
33, Talons' is up.
67, Arbes is up.
83, 2Pac is up.
101, Baths is up.
and I updated the other already added entries favs and least fav songs. |
Papa Universe
05.09.19 | well, this got no traction at all... |
AsleepInTheBack
05.09.19 | Jam 98 anyway, it's great |
Papa Universe
05.09.19 | aight, that'll be next. |
Papa Universe
05.10.19 | or did you mean to come here, Con? |
Papa Universe
05.10.19 | 92, Lowercase is up. |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
05.10.19 | Lame |
Papa Universe
05.10.19 | yeah |
Bedex
05.10.19 | Lol those two-decimal ratings
Differentiating albums that are 0.2% apart in quality |
Papa Universe
05.10.19 | it's a gradual process, really. you first determine in what region of 5 would you place the record and then repeat with 10 to one decimal and the other. |
Bedex
05.10.19 | In all honesty I may end up reaching that level of granularity once I rebuild my rating database. Easier to decide on what decimal goes after a 3.6 when you have then other 3.6's to compare the record to. I'm merely amused by how nerdy it looks |
Papa Universe
05.11.19 | oh yeah, no question about that, this is geekdom at its finest. i'd still've been a virgin to this day, if it weren't for my adapting the system long after getting married. |
dmathias52
05.11.19 | Is it weird if I comment on this so I can follow it? |
Conmaniac
05.11.19 | You're still doing this papA? |
JustJoe.
05.11.19 | Only people allowed to comment are Pops & Con.
Don’t listen to me at all.
|
Papa Universe
05.11.19 | Of course, I still want to hear what you have to offer. I said I was going to carry on |
Papa Universe
05.16.19 | 49, Silversun Pickups is up. |
