SCROTUM

everyone knows it's a 10 so cool

but is this really a 10? no filler? dead-cert classic? perfect?

I haven't heard RIP yet, gonna sit down with it today but I'm looking forward to it.

All I'm saying is, hey, it's pretty rare for that to happen three times with only 1/3rd of the year down; and twice in as many weeks!

hmmmm

jerk

the cull of 4-6 tracks would have taken it down to a considerably more manageable and enjoyable 50-60 minutes. similar to Goblin earlier in the year, just needed some quality control.

apologies

and both of them weren't great...

that annoys me the most

also, fix the forums up a bit, ta

The Weeknd and Shabazz Palaces as you say, I also really enjoyed Big K.R.I.T. Also the new HTDW EP is gorgeous.

2010 was awesome, prolly the best since 2007 but this year has seen nothing special whatsoever for me. Smith Westerns would be probably only record getting a look into my top 10, even then probs only top 15

Smith Westerns - Dye It Blonde
Big K.R.I.T. - Return Of 4Eva
Panda Bear - Tomboy
Fucked Up - David Comes To Life
Siriusmo - Mosaik
Tyler, the Creator - Goblin
The Joy Formidable - The Big Roar

just as a heads up

as said in the blurb

I definitely prefer Nights Out

I definitely prefer Nights Out

still, enjoying the ride

lengthy ambient soundscapes, punctuated by Ramadanman's 'Work Them', Fis-T's 'Night Hunter' and Jam City's 'Ecstacy Refix', eventually building into gabba and jungle, finished with a blitz of white noise

Well played, Rory.

If I catch you I'll buy you a pint.

now I'm probably in 'decent 7' territory

definitely not as good as I had hoped, but it's grown a fair bit too

it's a great record

the rest is bunk

and they did. Terrific.

you gave it a 9

it says so, right there, on the link

no Titus Andronicus and no Wavves = kinda criminal, imo

have tried though. One more go.

this often happens with DiS EOY lists. In '08 Fleet Foxes were 40something and last year xx was in the bottom three, so I believe?

How it goes.

madness

Phenomenal band, and on great form in Nottingham too.

For me this is further testament, alongside Janelle Monae, Kanye and others, that just-outside-the-mainstream pop has been brilliant in 2010

A 9 rather than a 10.0, granted, but something that's gonna be around for a while

I'm all over it

bet you feel like dicks now you ruined a nice sentiment from none other than a HANDICAPPED KID with your very very slight criticism of the cover

cuntz

bit of a shocker missing those two
