Album of the Week #61: Voting

insinkerator

Rules:

1. This is a public poll, so others can see who you voted for, each contestant MUST either include a suggestion for next weeks poll, or second another sugestion from another user.(NOTE: this seconding will not count as a vote in next weeks poll.
2. Only one nomination per user, per week shall be accepted. Nominations must be made in this thread, and once an album has been nominated, it may not be nominated for another poll for the subsequent three months
3. Dont forget to Vote

Im thinking of an album of the year thread. It will be a little bit messed up, as this hasnt been goin for a full year, but there are other albums in Johns post that havent gone to an end of year vote. Im not sure how to go about it. I could start a thread with all the albums listed in the OP and let people copy and paste in the albums they would like to nominate for voting. I was also toying with the idea, of starting a thread with one post per album, and let people thank them. The top thanked then goin to the vote. Any ideas/suggestions.

For next year, my plan is to record the votes received for the album of the week each week, and the contendors for album of the year shall be decided that way. But this year, because it is dealing with two different systems, its a little bit more difficult.

I'd just like to give a big thanks to insinkerator for coming up with the idea of the new album of the week system - and for starting the threads.

HouseHippo

Tokyo Police Club - Elephant Shell

I'm going to go with the Pale,good guys...great music

Pighead

Tokyo Police Club - Elephant Shell

Yeah good man insinkerator. God bless your enthusiasm!

Voted for the Pale as well What an album! Violins, Dog with no Tail, Butterfly, Mother Nature is a Man and that Day one two three etc song. Loved it to pieces and then lost it many moons ago. Have never been able to find a replacement. Was told it was deleted and never re-issued.

Ah well, it'll always be an almost perfect album in my mind. Maybe listening to it again might dilute that somewhat.

For next week I'll nominate: Belly: Star.
