It's the best song on the album by some distance (IMO obvs). Worth a go though!
I mean the album cover alone suggests she's fully invested in the bit. More power to her!
Voted for Pearl partly for the sheer cheek of the ABBA steal, but there’s a strong song in there too, and I’ve saved the album on Spotify.
Not familiar with any of these artists (well, apart from Metallica) but I liked all these tunes. I plumped for Into the Wild. Not usually my cup of tea but its clattering build drew me in. The […]
Great group, with three GBs. I like both the original "SeeSea" and this remix of it a lot. And I loooove me some brega funk (it's even better with (simulated) horn/brass stabs, I find). But I went […]
Group of the day (if ‘day’ means anything anymore in the new format). No weak links at all here. Voted Machinedrum, who I have followed quite closely in the past tho I didn’t know this track - on […]
Sorry Most Chill Slackmob and Loma E As Gemeas Lacracao, you're tracks are fine, but they don't have the Molalatladi guitar solo and I'm a guitar guy.
Most Chill Slackmob really sounds like Portishead “Mysterons” to me. Got my vote
It’s the final week of Modern Qualifiers! Today we’ve got a particularly gruesome Bracket Balancer headline group, a couple of cracking Curated Groups and a further venture into the Low Shazam Zone. Best get on with it eh?
I made a playlist of all your excellent suggestions (that I could find) for a group on the theme “21st Century covers of 20th Century songs”. I’ll pick 4 of these with a headline group in mind – and avoiding stuff we’ve already had. But I thought all of them deserved collection really. Thank you!
Missed this one. Results aren’t showing when I click on the button. Would have voted “Reagan” on the new-to-me. […]
Tough choice between Mike and Kendrick...ultimately I was glad I went with Killer Mike since he's in a second-place knife fight with Frank Ocean and his is the better song. I wonder if future […]
King Kunta is enjoyable but I've heard it 20+ times and still don't really know what it's about (not that I've done any investigating, it's just not obvious to me). Wheras the first time I heard […]
I'm a bit allergic to the Benny & The Jets plod beat, sorry Frank. Whereas all the Payback nods in King Kunta are just *chefs kiss*
Shhhhh, it’s a Curated Group by @baltimorejacks!
Missed this one. Would have voted for “Hablamos…”
Savages' was one of the best concerts I've ever been to. All the raw power in their debut translated so fiercely in a live settting. "Shut Up" makes me remember that feeling so well. DJ Shadow/RTJ […]
The video for Savages has an interminable intro but the song is great and I'm sad it seems that the band have irrevocably if unofficially split, having not recorded or performed since 2016. Visceral […]
Always have time for RTJs particular brand of braggado and there are some classic lines here, but I've never heard 'Murmers' and really liked it so voted for that
