RIGHT THEN

The Indie/Alt/Rock Forum's final voting is officially underway~ the songs that received two or more nominations in the previous thread are still in the game (and if you're unhappy with this..... then me too- i mean no Blackstar, seriously?)

There's still a set of top top tunes to pick from though, in this final batch of 15, only the TOP 4 will advance to form our Indie/Alt/Rock team!

This Top 4 will be determined via a ranking system, here's how you'll be scoring:

+05 Your favourite
+04
+03
+02
+01

Remember to CLEARLY INDICATE which one is your fave, by either using the exact format above, tagging your favourite with a [BEST] or [FAVE], or whatever just make sure it's clear x

In addition: if two songs from a certain artist end up in the Top 4, the lowest of those songs will instead be replaced with the 5th place track (e.g. if Car Radio finishes 2nd and Holding Onto You 4th, Holding Onto You won't advance). Cry unfair if you like, this is done purely to encourage variety! (which is the point of this specific contest.) (i think.)

16/11/2016, 23:59 is the deadline, so don't slack off

I'll go for this too as I'm not familiar with most of the others, and I do like Oasis music on occasion.

Posted by: Iz~ 10th November 2016, 03:54 PM

Very very hard to pick as so much of this is right in my taste zone. I'm going to go for what should help us get a good mix of indie signature tracks.
+5 Within Temptation feat. Xzibit - And We Run
+4 Arcade Fire - Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains)
+3 Grimes - Flesh Without Blood
+2 Animal Collective - FloriDada
+1 Against The Current - Running With The Wild Things

So very nearly for all of these:
Muse - Undisclosed Desires
Oasis - Champagne Supernova
Paramore - Brighter
System Of A Down - B.Y.O.B.
twenty one pilots - Car Radio
twenty one pilots - Holding On To You

Posted by: Bré 10th November 2016, 04:09 PM

5 BYOB
4 FloriDada
3 Undisclosed Desires
2 That's What You Get
1 Champagne Supernova

Car Radio is absolutely horrendous what are you people doing

It was? apologies for that, I didn't think it was an 'official' nomination, I'd thought you were just maybe gonna post it along with some others later on. I want to throw Sprawl II on the shortlist now but i'm not sure if it's too late

Posted by: ʟɪɴᴅsᴇ 10th November 2016, 10:40 PM

Go for it, anyone who's voted so far and wants to add it in can edit their votes if the wish to

Posted by: Chez Wombat 10th November 2016, 10:42 PM

Oh if it can be included, consider that my +5 and move everything down Apologies, I should've been a bit more clear with that!

Posted by: Iz~ 10th November 2016, 10:49 PM

Oh wow, I hate to do this to 21P but Sprawl II is a must. Editing my votes to put it in at +4.

ALRIGHT, the results have been calculated and we have a rock solid Top 4 we'll be moving forward to the grand finals with!

The lucky songs are as follows:



Grimes "Flesh Without Blood"

The Canadian princess's blast of bubblegum electropop sails through with the highest tally of all





Lana Del Rey "National Anthem"

As a former winner of the Lana Rate, there was no doubt National Anthem would smash it here!





Oasis "Champagne Supernova"

Never charted or released as a single in the UK, but a fan favourite nonetheless the brilliant Champagne Supernova is in!





twenty one pilots "Holding On To You"

It was a battle of the Vessel singles, with Holding On To You edging out Car Radio as the TØP pick!














but wait









Each forum's moderators have recently been given the chance to pick a wildcard, any wildcard from the huge batch of nominated songs. On a majority decision, this spot has been given to one of Buzzjack Indie forum's most significant and iconique artists. And so we welcome.......
