09.12.23 | bored and sput is quiet these days, lemme know if anyone comes to your mind i will add them ta x |
Mort.
09.12.23 | eg. the last two years have seen a massive surge in shiner interest (check shiner), who else has this happened to? (new bands not eligible for obvious reasons) |
someone
09.12.23 | jesus okay fine ill listen to your favourite band. what album is the best entry point? keep in mind that i only like music that i can visualise as virgin cocktails |
Butkuiss
09.12.23 | Idk me n Johnny exchanged ten words in a Dire Straits thread last week does that count? |
Mort.
09.12.23 | lula divinia remaster but with 'sleep it off' & 'two black eyes' tacked on to the end (theyre on the original tracklist but werent remastered for some reason) |
GhandhiLion
09.12.23 | That depends on how you define largely unnoticed in this small corner of the internet. |
Pheromone
09.12.23 | black eyes and im taking all credit |
Mort.
09.12.23 | i dont care about pedantry ghandi, literally look at the first post on this list and you get the general gist of what im at |
Sinternet
09.12.23 | Mort this looks like guitar music to me |
GhandhiLion
09.12.23 | Perhaps Pram.
Oh it's just shiner shilling |
Mort.
09.12.23 | it is but i didnt get into them after my sabbatical, it was before, so all good |
Demon of the Fall
09.12.23 | it's mostly a relatively small handful of users I guess, but Stereolab's threads are a lot more active than they were |
Demon of the Fall
09.12.23 | I want to say Oxbow, but nah probably not
Sweet Trip counts I reckon |
Mort.
09.12.23 | yeah this pram band is a good example gandhi |
Pheromone
09.12.23 | mort why the fuck r u ignoring me |
JohnnyoftheWell
09.12.23 | Pram rediscovery is a WIP
Stereolab rediscovery has definitely been a thing since 2020 in terms of reviews and discourse, not so much in ratings
Arab Strap rediscovery has been a v clear thing along with their comeback
Vladislav Delay has had a minor upsurge over the last year and a bit
Tujiko Noriko rediscovery also a WIP |
Butkuiss
09.12.23 | Someone and I also be trading thoughts on Dadawah. That’s gotta count - Peace and Love is a magnitude more popular now than it was on release. |
someone
09.12.23 | Howlin Wolf has been steadily rising but at a glacial pace |
Mort.
09.12.23 | will look at and add all these suggestions in time
not ignoring you phero, but by the look of black eyes votes theyve had pretty steady interest! |
Demon of the Fall
09.12.23 | ah right, yeah I definitely did not read the thread
I didn't know we needed actual 'rating trajectory' based evidence here, lol |
Pheromone
09.12.23 | b4 phero: 4 votes / year
after me: 3000 votes / day |
Mort.
09.12.23 | you dont super need rating trajectory based evidence, its just one of the clearest most obvious ways to measure/determine whether a band is having a resurgence of attention or not
|
Mort.
09.12.23 | for instance i will be simply taking johnnys word for it that stereolab are having a bit of a moment here even if the ratings dont necessarily indicate it
also, i feel like fripp really helped prefab sprout a few years back on this site |
Demon of the Fall
09.12.23 | 'Masakatsu Takagi - Kagayaki'
released in 2014, not a single vote till 2020
now on 20 votes |
Trifolium
09.12.23 | "and sput is quiet these days"
YES. It is! 😥 |
Demon of the Fall
09.12.23 | so you took Johnny's word but not mine?
making me feel small here Mort. |
DadKungFu
09.12.23 | Pretty sure Coalesce discourse is primarily centered around sputnik |
Mort.
09.12.23 | hahahahahahaha i lit just added it and mentioned you so get fucked |
Demon of the Fall
09.12.23 | okay, yeah you cited my influence, hehe all's good
and yeah I bet Coalesce is essentially because of Mort. I reckon, the guy has been plugging them non-stop here |
Pheromone
09.12.23 | sleep token over the past 4 years |
Mort.
09.12.23 | sweet trip are a no tho, cos theyve been consistently getting attention here since i joined at the very least |
Trifolium
09.12.23 | Imagine a small teeny tiny Demon though! 😍💖💖💖💖
Wouldn't that be the cutest thing!? |
Pheromone
09.12.23 | i would feed him to my pets |
JohnnyoftheWell
09.12.23 | for Stereolab the only stat you need is that 6(!!) of their 10 LPs were unreviewed until the 2020-2023 window |
someone
09.12.23 | Taeko Onuki
Ryuichi Sakamoto
|
Mort.
09.12.23 | thank you johnny good stat |
Trifolium
09.12.23 | Yeah very very true Johnny. Now, there's only one left! |
JohnnyoftheWell
09.12.23 | yeah was about say Ryuichi - Async release + Fripp's plugs defs did a lot of work there from 2017 onwards. similar story for Taeko |
someone
09.12.23 | Yoshiko Sai
but her rise has slowed down since |
JohnnyoftheWell
09.12.23 | she had a blip and i'm pretty sure that was correlated with a youtube algorithm
am waiting on Yumi Matsutoya revival 2023 |
DadKungFu
09.12.23 | SPK |
someone
09.12.23 | "am waiting on Yumi Matsutoya revival 2023"

Pheromone
09.12.23 | drops mic |
Mort.
09.12.23 | na i dont believe you and i dont want to check |
JohnnyoftheWell
09.12.23 | man i miss the great undiscovery of black eyes in 2022
but yes yes get on misslim, all of u |
Pangea
09.12.23 | we're going to need a statistical test first to see if it's significant |
Demon of the Fall
09.12.23 | SPK (2)
no lie, I was just checking to see if their ratings had spiked. Good work DKF as I think you've definitely helped in that regard |
Pheromone
09.12.23 | mort i will fuckin end u |
Mort.
09.12.23 | : ) |
Mort.
09.12.23 | ok so im gonna have a look at
Taeko Onuki
Ryuichi Sakamoto
prefab sprout
Yoshiko Sai
spk
black eyes
rorschach (have the feeling some metalcore ogs had a resurgence here due to the core crew doing their homework) |
JohnnyoftheWell
09.12.23 | Get Vladislav up there, quick scan of Anima, Multila and Entain ratings tells you all you need |
Minortimbo12
09.12.23 | Here before smok says "Your mom ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)" |
CugnoBrasso
09.12.23 | I rated Lula Divinia in 2018, I'm still cool. |
Sunnyvale
09.12.23 | Nice list idea!
Sunhouse probably qualifies, Crazy on the Weekend released in 1998, no ratings before 2016, 75 ratings since. |
Trebor.
09.12.23 | It's more extreme on rym but Brave Little Abacus had like 50 ratings ten years ago and they now have the top and 2nd highest rated albums on rym with over 10k ratings
American Football all over again |
Jasdevi087
09.13.23 | "Sunhouse probably qualifies, Crazy on the Weekend released in 1998, no ratings before 2016, 75 ratings since."
that album benefited hard from the review a random album game |
Jasdevi087
09.13.23 | I wanna say David Sylvian is one of these. when i first joined he had like fuck all ratings across his discog, especially in comparison to ratings for Japan. Then fripp, et al. got into him and attention for him picked up pretty fast, especially for his late career stuff which was entirely unappreciated (including by me) up until getting something of a reappraisal amongst the userbase |
Winesburgohio
09.13.23 | I'd like us to discover Silkworm and U.S. Maple ! |
someone
09.14.23 | what about the bands that Sputnik forgot?
I Can Make A Mess Like Nobody's Business was on the relative rise in the early 10s and then dropped off kinda |
onionbubs
09.14.23 | i think it says smth about their plummet from sputcore that ive been here like 9 years and just found out who dredg were like a month ago |
someone
09.14.23 | oh yeah, that band that undid the entire following they had with one weird shitty album |
Mort.
09.14.23 | Oh yeah there are quite a few bands in that vein of “nobody gives a shit anymore”
Pianos become the teeth come to mind |
ArsMoriendi
09.14.23 | I can happy to be part of the Pram upsurge
What about Thinking Fellers? Feel like they had an uptick at some point… and they need MORE |
someone
09.14.23 | i might try and help the Fellers a bit, they need more reviews for sure. can't be that they only sit at two revs now |
JohnnyoftheWell
09.14.23 | mort update this list you lazy sod |
BigTuna
09.14.23 | The Stereolab resurgence on here def got me into them. |
Ryus
09.14.23 | when are we rediscovering anthony shakir |
Mort.
09.14.23 | im very busy atm but will update i promise |
Demon of the Fall
09.14.23 | 'The Stereolab resurgence on here def got me into them.' (2)
Same here. It was a beautiful thing. One of my faves now. |
Mort.
09.16.23 | updating this now
didnt realise ryuichi sakomoto had been so overlooked. seems quite bizarre considering his fame and acclaim in music circles |
JohnnyoftheWell
09.16.23 | Vladislav Delay [123] |
Mort.
09.16.23 | ive added them mate : )
|
JohnnyoftheWell
09.16.23 | you have done it
yoshiko sai was mainly a reflection of a youtube algorithm that spread her second album out in 2019 (see my rev and subsequent ratings) |
JohnnyoftheWell
09.23.23 | fuck yeah Plutocracy
hadn't noticed until rn, but shit damn look at the ratings for any given Yellow Magic Orchestra album from 2018/19 onwards |
Frippertronics
