    Great game Homer. Fair play.

    Aside from your extremely poor taste in music, you seem like a decent enough lad :pac: :pac: :pac:

    Once again thank you all so much for participating; I hope the anonymous format worked ok, definitely helped me out in scoring and adding to the fun anyway. But if it prevented you from making some comments earlier then the shackles are now free, so work away! :D

    I shall definitely be adding many new artists to my future playlists now - Tigran Hamasyan, Faker, The Gutter Twins, Spiritualized, DJ Shadow, Flipper's Guitar, Lost Under Heaven to name just a few.

    So that's goodnight and good luck from me. Here's looking forward to sullivlo's Walrus. :)

    Thanks Homer a great reveal - delighted with a not too shabby fourth place in Walrus - some great stuff tonight which I'm looking forward to going back to.

    ETA: Well done Kev another one and you'll have to bring the Walrus home to live with you :)

    Nice one Homer

    I'll take fifth tonight, I love YYYs and Zimmer so happy to come behind them and a couple of new ones to check out. I'm super excited about hearing this Armenian Jazz Pianist, that's how to play and win in style, congrats Kev!

    Given you liked LUH and The Gutter Twins I would highly recommend the albums, Spiritual Songs for Lovers To Sing might be my favourite of the last decade, and Saturnalia is amazing. If you need more like The Gutter Twins then they're basically The Twilight Singers in disguise :)

    Kingolas got the most love in Round 1 but must be content with 13th place and 5 points this time round for Pulp - F.E.E.L.I.N.G.C.A.L.L.E.D.L.O.V.E.

    Damn you, you cloth eared caveman! :p
    I had four top-five finishes apart from this modern masterpiece that you savaged

    Different Class is a truly brilliant album, I'd still recommend trying it despite your misgivings :)

    Mid table for me, happy enough with my selections.

    Here's the final playlist; once again we have a Slade song that can't be found on Spotify (this time not even with a cover version) and I've had to use the original Witcher song instead of the remix (which I did actually find but it's greyed out/unavailable)

    Greg Dulli, the creative force behind The Gutter Twins, Twilight Singers and Afghan Whigs, released a new solo album, Random Desire, yesterday which is well worth a listen. I've only had one listen but it sounds very good. He's also on these shores next month - Roisin Dubh on Thurs 19th, Whelans on Fri 20th, see you there ;)
