July 27, 20186 yr Author 15. King Rollo ● Haken - Visions xJUDk6a4GsI 12 pts - Oceans Of Slumber - The Banished Heart 10 - Bloodywood - Ari Ari 8 - Giraffes? Giraffes! - I'm Not Typing All That Out 7 - Drab Majesty - Dot In The Sky 6 - Domina Noctis - Rosemary 5 - Mt. Wolf - Soteria 4 - Lomboy - Loverboy 3 - Anna Calvi - Don't Beat The Girl Out Of My Boy 2 - As It Is - The Stigma (Boys Don't Cry) 1 - Primus - Jilly's On Smack The Banished Heart is stunning,the best discovery from any of the Buzzjack song contests so far this year. As if it was going to be anyone other than Rollo who was behind the 23 minute epic courtesy of progressive metal band Haken :kink: we already had a taste of the group in the special 100th edition of BJSC but that kinda went down like a lead balloon as it came last... oops. But Rollo's votes here have just come off the back of a 12 for Haken, plus he was spared of any mehs on plug for an ultra long song, so he must be doing something right! Rollo is the fourth person tonight to award top points to Oceans Of Slumber, deeming 'The Banished Heart' his favourite Buzzjack-related discovery of the year. But he gives his silver to Oceans Of Slumber's biggest rival right now, so Bloodywood remain at the top! This is an almighty battle at the moment, I'm on the edge of my seat and we're only around halfway through :lol: elsewhere, Drab Majesty have re-entered the top 5.

July 27, 20186 yr Rollo just outdoing himself with the song length :P there were a couple of parts during the song that sounded very similar to Anathema so that makes sense (and other bits that sounded like Muse and System Of A Down iirc). Quite the journey of a song, I threw it a few points since I enjoyed nearly every part of it.
July 27, 20186 yr I was always odds on to have sent the epic! It was tough trying to bluff my way through 23 minutes on the plugdj.
July 27, 20186 yr Author 16. Iz ● Bloodywood - Ari Ari (feat. Raoul Kerr) i4FqGPRQWFM love j-rock and prog metal, thanks to whoever sent these. also ayumi and symphonic metal is irresistible, and Mt Wolf is just kind of damn good 12 CLØWD - ANTITHESE 10 Haken - Visions 08 Oceans Of Slumber - The Banished Heart 07 Mt. Wolf - Soteria 06 Ayumi Hamasaki - Rule 05 Lomboy - Loverboy 04 AS IT IS - The Stigma (Boys Don't Cry) 03 Ty Segall - Californian Hills 02 Yellowcard - For You, And Your Denial 01 Kaleo – No GoodWell... I was planning this to be in order of receipt but then I was confused about a set of votes so I'll be coming back to those next and we'll move on to Iz instead who was up after that person. He is behind one of the two main contenders right now and performs a bit of a foot shoot as he puts Oceans Of Slumber back in the lead, oops. But things are very close so he could still get back up there. 'Ari Ari' is something so different in this contest and stands out for miles ("diversity's a gift" after all *.*) so I can see why things are going well for it so far. Indian street metal is clearly awesome if this is anything to go by. Metal is not usually my genre of choice but I can certainly make an exception for this. Iz's entry may not be entirely typical for him (i.e. is not Japanese) but at least that 12 certainly is. I'm sure many of you presumed that Iz was behind CLØWD, I'm sure I would've been if I didn't already know. His votes actually send 'ANTITHESE' into the top 10 for the first time tonight!

July 27, 20186 yr I really wish it had an edited version, some of the parts are fantastic, but I'm really not one who listens to 23-minute songs
July 27, 20186 yr India...is in Asia? Makes sense that it's Iz's act now. Was this something you came across when you were living there?
July 27, 20186 yr Author Yeah sorry I meant not Japanese, this is what you get for prepping late at night :lol:
July 27, 20186 yr I ask the same question to Iz as to Chez when I was guessing he was behind Bloodywood: did you also find this song because it was posted with an eye-catching genre tag on /r/listentothis a while back? :lol: Very good entry anyway, I'm actually surprised it's doing this well despite how well it went down on plug ;o Iz coming to follow 3 last places in the various BuzzJack contests with a win? :P
July 27, 20186 yr Ari Ari *.* Another band I've checked out post-contest as well, Jee Veeray is amazing also!
July 27, 20186 yr No way is Iz not one of the songs at the bottom!! Somethin is wrong. Votes have been fiddled!!
July 27, 20186 yr Hooray more points! Idk how I didn't guess Haken was Rollo lmao, could've maybe been a bit shorter but undeniably an epic journey of a song. Wonderful entry, Iz *.
July 27, 20186 yr Thanks to Riser for the 12 points and to Iz,Bre and Chez for voting for Visions as well.
July 27, 20186 yr Author 17. Jüpiter ● Domina Noctis - Rosemary iYgej011Pqc +12 Ellie and the Oscars +10 Anna Calvi +8 Ty Segall +7 Oceans of Slumber +6 Lomboy +5 As It Is +4 Jennylee +3 Avex +2 Jealous of the Birds +1 Charlie FeathersJüpiter now! The confusion I was referring to in the last set of votes was '+3 Avex' which I was puzzled about, but it had to be Ayumi Hamasaki (the name of her label and the song title is in Japanese so fair enough) so crisis was quickly averted. Anyway, back to Jupiter. His entry is courtesy of Italian gothic-rock group Domina Noctis (or "lady of the night") which is currently scraping in the top 20. I expected a bit more for it with that soaring chorus but there's still time I suppose. These votes create a 10 point gap between Oceans Of Slumber and Bloodywood, after gifting the former 7 points and snubbing the latter. He also provides Charlie Feathers with his FIRST POINT 17 votes in!!! I honestly thought we were on to a nil pointer here but not quite, apparently. S C O R E B O A R D 01.
