Hello!

 

Welcome to the sixteenth edition of the Indie/Alternative/Rock forum's Nuggets contest.

 

I am your host for this event and I’m happy to announce that the confirmation window is now open for new entries once again!

 

How does this one work? To differentiate from others the theme of this is guitars, there are no restrictions by genre, release date of length of song, but all entries must be guitar based. There are some other rules to abide by too:

 

Rules

01 The artist or band must not have reached the top 75 of the UK singles chart (ideally not the albums chart either).

02 The song cannot have been submitted to any previous song edition of Nuggets or Unknown Pleasures, the links for the archives are:

Nuggets Archive

Unknown Pleasures Archive

03 The contest is anonymous so please keep your entries to yourself — your entries will be revealed with the results.

04 If the same artist or band is entered by different people, then the first person to submit will be chosen.

05 The entries will be confirmed by the moderators of this forum to make sure they follow the rules above.

To enter, simply click here.

 

Your deadline for confirmations is 23:59 GMT Saturday 26th August 2023.

 

Here is the song that won the last Nuggets contest in 2022;

Sorry I rushed the OP a bit, I’ll try and tidy it up a bit later on but thanks RFC for your template that I stole!

 

A fresh google form has been added for new participants.

 

Thank you! ^_^

Have had a song lined up for this after coming across it a couple of weeks ago so confirmed nice and early for once!

I've also have a pretty nice entry for this contest that i've had lined up for the last month for this which I have now entered, probably would've given me a Q in BJSC but nevermind ... I'm excited to see what other entrants have sent this time around!

Coming for the last place again! :w00t:

Confirmed a song I found a few weeks ago.

Confirmed, let's see whether I should have sent this to BJSC or not x

I had the perfect song for this but apparently the artist appeared in BJSC 157 :kink:

 

Gotta look for something else now!!!

I've confirmed, but not really sure if it's something that could be sent here.

Just taking a listen now and I don’t see why not… there are guitars! ;)

i just found something :o

 

I'm thinking of this as a trial run for BJSC

Have submitted mine.

Keep the entries rolling in please!

More please!

Last day to submit any entries for this, we have 17 confirmed so far, but still a few regulars yet to confirm. ;)

Entered! Kinda wish I'd saved my foreign language spinoff entry for this but eventually found something.

Sorry for leaving this so late... confirmed!

I appreciate the PM Wardy but unfortunately I have to sit this one out. I’m having a little bit difficulties to listen to so many songs/contests that are happening at the same time. (I still have to listen to Spin Off songs and I barely made my second BJSC listen through and submit my semi votes).

 

Good luck to everyone 🫶🏻

No worries Addy! It’s always hard fitting in when there’s a busy schedule in the year of song contests! :lol:

 

See you next month for the next instalment of Retro hopefully!

Sent something because Wardy asked so nicely and I always feel a Wardy contest is spot on.

 

Sent something that Bré will know is me LOL but a definite swerve from what you're used to from me.
