Sad not to see Hard-Fi pick up votes from anyone else.

I'm surprised many people on Buzzjack remember Prefab Sprout, though I'm sure a few will know 'If You Don't Love Me' from Kylie's cover of it.

Finally another one of my votes drops out - not that I'm complaining about waiting a while! Once again surprised that I was the only person to vote for The Kinks ohmy.gif they were quite fresh in my mind thanks to The Kink Kronikles release for Record Store Day. Probably my 2nd favourite 60s band after The Beatles.

That's a good set of groups on 14 points.

I was fully expecting my own 14 pointer to appear today. I'm pleased to see somebody else voted for them.

Evanescence were very close to making my list. None of mine have fallen out yet, I don't think.

I used to be obsessed with Evanescence hence my 14 points, although after their first 2 albums they did start to go down hill.

Oh I probably should've considered voting for Evanescence, but I'm glad someone else did!

All those amazing 90s songs and Primal Scream's highest charting hit is Country Girl :| I did love it at the time but wow

Maximo Park's debut album was so good, one of my favourites ever and was utterly obsessed with it. They were probably the band I included which I like the least % of their output if that makes sense. Half a dozen or so great songs since their debut but I can quite happily leave most of their output since.

I'd say if my 13 & 14 pointers have dropped out with only me voting then it's absolutely nailed on my 15 & 16 are too.

Primal Scream is a stranger one for me, they're a band with a double personality
I love their dance album like Screamadelica and even their minor dance albums like Evil Heat
but hate their rock-y albums, which probably gave them their biggest hits like Rocks

I expected the thread to be interesting, but I had no idea it was going to be that exciting. So many fantastic bands.

A little review of every group voted would suit this thread perfectly though. tongue.gif

Next time we should do one for groups with a top 10 album, would be even more interesting I suspect laugh.gif
