07.01.19 | New weeks up. Voting closes this Friday, 5th of July at 15:00 CEST. Little later then usual to make sure I get all 9 albums cramped in (4,5 days, should be doable). I also traded Glen Hansard and Avantasia for two more popular picks: Katatonia and QotSA.
Edit* Also changed the title of the series 'cus It felt a bit narcissistic. This looks and feel better to me :). |
Papa Universe

Scheumke
07.01.19 | Everyone's welcome to join in Papa, no prior participation required.
@Relinquished: What do you mean my man? I'm not following :). |
Trifolium
07.01.19 | I think he means the 1-list-per-day unwritten rule. To give every list its time in the sun. |
JustJoe.
07.01.19 | It’s true. I am the cops of that rule. How could I have missed it?! |
Scheumke
07.01.19 | Oops, I've had that couple of weeks in a row now, because the new week starts at the same day I release the results of the last week. I'll keep in mind to do the full results a day after I entered a new week! Good rule though, Apologies for the violation! |
JustJoe.
07.01.19 | No jail-time, just promise to stay on the right side of the law, citizen.

Scheumke
07.01.19 | Aye sir. Will do sir. You gonna vote sir? |
JustJoe.
07.01.19 | That sounds like a heavy commitment & I try to avoid listening to music & or being wrong. So I will say good luck to the participants & be on my way. |
Scheumke
07.01.19 | Alright sir. Good day to you sir. |
ArsMoriendi
07.01.19 | How does this work and how I can I get you to listen to a discography of my choosing? |
Scheumke
07.01.19 | Its easy. This week I'll listen to every Radiohead song and rank them. You guess what my top10 is going to be. You get points for being right. Person with most points wins and gets to choose out of the current 5 (this list 2-6) AND a new band for next weeks list. So theres no way to directly choose but if you win you get to add your band to the list that the next winner can choose |

JustJoe.
07.01.19 | King of Limbs owns. What. The. Hell. |
JustJoe.
07.01.19 | WRONG. You just got it wrong. |
Papa Universe
07.01.19 | or did I just get it all so right? |
JustJoe.
07.01.19 | Incorrect. But I have a habit of interrupting rec or music-related competitions.
Whoops. |
Scheumke
07.01.19 | Only top 10 songs are necessary papa. Thanks for playing! Normally I would give you all my current album rating to help you guys out a little bit but I'm grosly underversed in this band so no hints this week. |
Trifolium
07.01.19 | Well that's a hint too! We should pick more immediate and direct songs instead of the slow growers. |
Scheumke
07.02.19 | Ha fun little fact: I just found out that Radiohead has released exactly 100 songs on LP's so far. |
Trifolium
07.03.19 | Ok, my guess would be:
1. Paranoid Android
2. Pyramid Song
3. There There
4. Idioteque
5. Street Spirit (Fade Out)
6. Reckoner
7. Everything In Its Right Place
8. 2+2=5

10. Bodysnatchers

Scheumke
07.03.19 | Ha don't get your hopes up buddy. I'm sure people are gonna hate me for my ratings on this one (without giving spoilers, I'm only halfway there so anything could still happen). Let's get this out of the way first: I enjoy listening to every Radiohead song WAY more than I expected. I didn't like them at all before this. I have to say I like it a lot more, but still think their music is highly overrated. But that's always the difficult thing with music: when it doesn't make you feel anything (because you haven't grown up with their music or you have no connection to it whatsoever) its easy to think of it as overrated. Radiohead clearly makes people feel things, it just doesn't make me feel anything. |
Trifolium
07.03.19 | Haha! Well, we'll see! This ''I enjoy listening to every Radiohead song WAY more than I expected.'' is promising! |
JohnnyoftheWell
07.03.19 | I just hope we get a Cactuses Come In The Flocks-style breakdown for Pablo Honey ;] |
Trifolium
07.03.19 | Omg yeah that would be awesome ~
Blow Out is among my favourite RH. That song's amazing. |
JohnnyoftheWell
07.03.19 | "Radiohead clearly makes people feel things, it just doesn't make me feel anything."
>immediately cuts Let Down and Fake Plastic Trees from list |
Trifolium
07.03.19 | Haha! Sounds like a good idea then, yeah! I wanted to include Bodysnatchers too but there (there)'s just so many great picks. |
Trifolium
07.03.19 | Maybe even Reckoner and Nude... :-( |
JohnnyoftheWell
07.03.19 | Haha c'mon, Nude's bassline is bigger than feels |
Scheumke
07.03.19 | Swap whatever you like :) I guess that post is the hint for this week.
"I just hope we get a Cactuses Come In The Flocks-style breakdown for Pablo Honey ;]" Nah I'll just do a top100 since these songs are actually rate-able. Also, I didn't dislike any of their records so far, so the comical aspect of it gets lost and it just becomes a boring breakdown of the songs. |
JohnnyoftheWell
07.03.19 | True true, but we're guaranteed the whole of that album in the list anyway so...
Also mfw I literally forgot the King of Limbs existed bc it's not in my iTunes library. Yikes. Hmm... |
Trifolium
07.03.19 | The bass on In Rainbows specifically is so super good. But hey, done is done! I'll go with what I have now. |
JohnnyoftheWell
07.03.19 | V true, although almost every Radiohead album has one song where the bass unexpectedly steals the show now that I think about it... |
Trifolium
07.03.19 | Yeah I think their rhythm section is my fave aspect probably. |
JohnnyoftheWell
07.03.19 | Phil Selway is their secret mvp without a doubt |
Trifolium
07.03.19 | He's so good. Of course his band mates are great too, but he's an underappreciated and vital part, agreed. |
Scheumke
07.04.19 | 2 more days folks! Get them votes up while they're hot! |
Demon of the Fall
07.04.19 | This is tough, trying not to JUST pick my own favourites...
1. Paranoid Android
2. Street Spirit
3. Everything in it's Right Place
4. Exit Music
5. 2+2=5
6. Knives Out
7. Reckoner
8. High and Dry
9. Lotus Flower
10. Idiotheque |
Trifolium
07.04.19 | Don't leeave meee hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh
I LOVE The Bends. |
Scheumke
07.05.19 | Last chance to vote folks, 1 hour to go! |
Scheumke
07.05.19 | Voting has closed! I'll get my top 10 in here and announce the winner in a bit! |
Scheumke
07.05.19 | And we have a winner! Two winners actually. Both PapaUniverse and JohnnyoftheWell have scored 5 points, by both having 5 songs correct and not one in the correct place. However, since How To Disappear Completely comes in at number 12 as the first song either of them have in their list, I pronounce PapaUniverse the winner of this week's DiscoRun! Congratulations Papa! You get to choose from the following five bands for next week (Kendrick Lamar, Tool, Kayo Dot, Katatonia, Queens of the Stone Age) AND a band of your choosing to complete the list. |
Demon of the Fall
07.05.19 | I preformed terribly, lol.
Congrats to king Papa! |
Scheumke
07.05.19 | Don't beat yourself up Demon, I have a very odd taste sometimes. Couple of songs in my top 10 that no one guessed lol. Sometimes songs just click with me and other obvious ones don't. My full list is gonna be a shitstorm of hate lol. Full list will come on monday. |
JohnnyoftheWell
07.05.19 | Hahahaha if I'd swapped my 1 and 2, this would have been a steal! Congratulations Papa, hyped to see what you pick! |
Scheumke
07.05.19 | Just out of curiosity: What would you're guys top 10 songs be? |
JohnnyoftheWell
07.05.19 | off the top of my head...
1. Jigsaw
2. Climbing Up the Walls
3. Knives Out
4. Videotape
5. Exit Music
6. Fake Plastic Trees
7. Airbag
8. Pyramid Song
9. Morning Bell
10. Separator or There There or Let Down
Vetted the floaty/mopey stuff for my submission ;] |
Trifolium
07.08.19 | OMG Scheumke, both You And Whose Army? and The Numbers < 3333 Great picks, with some very unconventional ones. |
Scheumke
07.08.19 | That's the beauty of not knowing most of the songs and voting on first listen alone. I have no conventions about what songs I should like (i.e. the most popular ones), so unconventional picks are sure to pop up. I think it might be the same with the current one. |
