Shouldn't we put these in separate threads?

Ahh! Now I have to finish two survivor lists this weekend! Any chance we can push the date back a little farther?

You know what, nevermind. I'm just gonna put my life on hold all week lol.

No real reason to. Just scatters everything around if it's in separate threads.

Thanks bud, even though I cheated with my pop survivor votes to make room. A shame that I already listened to a lot of these albums to prepare and they ended up being moved. Oh well. At least I've already listened to that other Mogwai album, don't think I can handle another Explosions in the Sky record is it's anything like the previous one, kinda dull. Also put of curiousity, why did you remove God is an Astronaut?

That was one of the ones I decided to cut to make room for some other, objectively better albums. Emphasis on objectively, I looked on RYM, and made some decisions based on that. I almost left God Is An Astronaut on, but I then took it off for Bark Psychosis.

Mogwai - Mogwai Young Team
Bark Psychosis - Hex
Do Make Say Think - & Yet & Yet
Talk Talk - Spirit of Eden

It sucks to vote off Mogwai so early but I think young team is such a weak showing for them. Wouldn't have been my second or even third choice after happy songs for happy people. As for bark psychosis and talk talk, I understand their value in the formation of the genre, but feel they don't really reflect it well enough in regards to what I look for in a post-rock album, if that makes sense.

What about the Mogwai album? Happy Songs is undeniably their best effort.

Only familiar with a couple albums on the list so I'm starting to listen to the others tonight, should have my vote in before the deadline.

I was basing it off of RYM reviews, I'll put it back on though.

FaSho will have to revote.
