The idea of this, and it's worked pretty well on the official board is that you list you top 10 albums of 2006, and each album gets a certain number of points. Number 1 album gets 10 points down to number 10 getting one. You can put down less than 10, but the points scale from the bottom one, so say if you put down 6, the maximum your top album could get is 6 points.

 

I'll let this run for three weeks and inform you of the results by then. So get voting people!

 

(If the mods here think this should go in the "World of Music" section instead, then feel free to move it, but due to the fact that it isn't related to any significant band, it's probably got a more general theme)

 

Oh and feel free to edit whatever your list is until you have 10...I won't add it up until the end

1 don't have 10 atm...

 

1. The Flaming Lips - At War With The Mystics

2. Mogwai - Mr. Beast

3. We Are Scientists - With Love And Squalor

No worries...see my edit of my original post :)

But it is about music in general, which is what the world of music is haha.

Yeah...but....YOU LIKE KEANE

though, i think the summer will bring us some great records. let's back to the theme in 2-3 months ;)

ah I must think about my top 10 in the morning

 

for now so far it is Eyes Open

 

Shouldn't this discussion happen in December?

^ I agree, its only May!

Considering we're half way through the year, I see no reason why it's not appropriate now.

 

Besides the title is "so far", not of 2006 conclusively

Yeah...but....YOU LIKE KEANE

 

 

Well....you have birds in your hair...

Have there been released so many good albums? The only one I've liked so far is Stadium Arcadium

So far all I've liked are:

 

Pilate - Sell Control For Life's Speed

RHCP - Stadium Arcadium

Snow Patrol - Eyes Open

Wolfmother

seems appropriate to have 2 six monthly polls (jan-may, june-dec) and then the winners stick them all together to get the overall winner in say january. Yes I must sleep. more cds tomorrow.

there's been, but a big part of them isn't "too good for radio" ;)

RHCP - Stadium Arcadium

 

You know it

OK well I'm happy to do it that way if people can actually participate in the thread instead of bitching about it. Really, I'd have thought that people who clearly should have a general interest in music would be more willing to participate

How about first one to name 10 wins a prize.

I guess two 6-monthly polls will negate the fact of everyone forgetting older music for the newer stuff. Just an idea.

Have there been 10 good cds already?

Well I've bought more than 10 cds so far this year, and all of them have been pretty decent.

 

Ian: Like I said, happy to do it that way, no need to elaborate further

Can't find ten so far, Snow Patrol's Eyes Open is brilliant and Stadium Arcadium, which has already been mentioned as well. Have to think about it, I'm sure there have been more great albums...

i bought 8 this year and 4 of them were from 2005 lol

so i can't really add those to this year's

Stadium Arcadium - RHCP

First Impressions of Earth - The Strokes

Live from Dakota - Stereophonics

 

Those are the 3 that stick in my mind.

I've probably bought 10 but most of them are from before 2006.
