Today we'll be voting on the third round.
For discussion:
Which albums did you root for in the first round?
Which albums did you root for in the second round?
Which albums are you rooting for in the third round?
Which album do you think will win and why?
Which albums should've been included in the tournament?
Does this tournament have the potential to reshape /mu/ and /mu/core?
How often should these tournaments take place?

>>71750500
Future Days hasn't lost yet. there's time
>mfw Swans and DG are both gonna get knocked out by radiohead in the same round
>>71750682
I hate all of you, your shit taste, and your memes.
>>71750682
Not if I have anything to say about it
My prediction
>>71750764
Nice swans meme
The fact that an extremely mainstream band like Radiohead is winning against amazing albums by artists who are genuinely 5000000 billion times more talented is a shame. Did reddit invade us and I just never noticed? Radiohead is not /mu/, it's reddit, and Death Grips and Swans were always /mu/...tf...
>>71750705
I thought you were cool, but now I know you're one of them.
I don't feel bad about posting that poll I made in all these threads anymore.
>Yeezus beat Flood
yikes
>>71750924
I'm just kidding. Two Radiohead albums in a poll on /mu/ is just cruel.

Very nice
cant believe the seer made it and soundtracks for the blind didnt
oh thats rights this is coming from the guy that named it "soundtracks for the deaf" on the polls

*whispers to OP* How much to rig it for Discovery?
>>71751486
No, he didn't. He called Songs for the Deaf by Queens of the Stone Age "Soundtracks for the Deaf by Swans", he messed up both.
And I laffed.
>>71751531
I'll make a new poll with this included for next thread.
This entire thing only shows how disgustingly terrible mu's taste is.
>>71751645
I bet shit like Radiohead will win. Pathetic.
>>71751645
The fact that Bitches Brew lost to the fuucking money store is inexcusable.
>>71751642
>>71751486
I wasn't doing the polls when this happened.
>>71751691
I'm ok with that.
Still, that was pretty funny.
>>71751690
Memes are winning over truly great albums. Such is nature of /mu/
Let's go Endtroducing
>>71750313
>http://pastebin.com/rqUR3a2Q
theres no merriweather, quintessential mucore
why is the only anco related thing stgstv
>>71751690
>>71751828
After seeing TMS beat Sgt. Pepper's and Bitches Brew due to memes and/or riggery, I'm glad to see it get its ass kicked by Kid A. I've never even listened to Radiohead and I voted for it anyway just to rub salt in the wound.
>Bitches Brew wins by 2 votes against Pink Moon
>Bitches Brew loses by 2 votes against The Money Store
Like pottery.
Patricians, name me your three favorite albums from this tournament (whether or not they're still in).
>>71752040
Not patrician, but I like
>quebec
>bitches brew
>pink moon
>>71752040
>Black Saint
>STGSTV
>Future Days
I voted for STGSTV though cause I figured it could maybe stand a chance against Madvilliany. Can can't beat the force of the plebs behind that album.
>>71752040
Close to the Edge
First Utterance
The Black Saint and the Sinner Lady
If black saint and the sinner lady doesn't make it to the next round I'm going to be pissed, it's really great, I especially like track B

Kid A v MBDTF is going to be a crazy one.
was this chart made by a literal retard
>Pinkerton vs Kind of Blue
that shit is retarded as all hell. How can you even compare the two??
>>71753014
All the match-ups were randomly generated.
>>71753034
*whispers* Pssst OP, how do I rig this thing for Discovery?
>>71751519
why 2019?
>>71750463
you're delusional if you think music for airports is better than madvillainy
>>71753434
>genre defining landmark record is worse than dude weed lmao muh rhyme schemes meme rap
not even DOOM's best album desu
>>71750463
ikr fuck rap
>>71753034
okay makes more sense now. I was getting very confused as to why anyone would make such stupid match ups. thanks OP
>>71753473
Just because it's the first/one of the first ambient albums doesn't make it amazing.
Madvillainy has great cohesion, the instrumentals are top tier, and doom kills it the entire time.
Agree to disagree. I like both albums
>>71750313
>/mu/core tournament
>128 albums
>no MPP
Are you kidding me? That's one of the most memed albums of all time
>>71753551
Nobody nominated it. Spirit They're Gone is better, anyway.
>>71753581
maybe for the closer, but as a whole, nah
So, OK Computer or Kid A?
We all know that's gonna be the final 2
I'm heading off to bed, anons. Have a good sleep to those going to sleep, and remember: polls officially close at 1 PM EST tomorrow, and voting for the fourth round starts at 2 PM.
Good night.

>>71756256
Not him but I voted 10 times for Discovery because I don't like edgy music promoting suicide.
I also posted the poll on my blog briefly.
>>71756396
I mean, I like Discovery too, but do I like it enough to cheat?

why isn't this done by genres?
why does charles mingus have to compete with king crimson and kanye with GY!BE
this is basically just tournament for the biggest meme
>>71756432
I don't care for either, in fact it was the only poll i wanted to vote in
>>71750313
finals will be ITAOTS or OK Computer vs MBDTF

>>71756619
* MBDTF or Kid A actually
hopefully we can we agree that J Dilla - Donuts >> any other hip hop album
>All my picks apart from GY!BE lost
Well, I'm out. Fuck you, /mu/.
Would any of you guys be interested in a tournament for best hip hop album after this one is finished?
>>71756807
how about a genre that is actually good?
>>71752040
YHF Kid A Age of Adz
>>71753332
It was so we'd have a big event to close out the teens and welcome 2020.
I'm gonna remake the poll for the next thread though since I've gotten some suggestions.

Vote up endtroducing desu

You shouldn't like edgy music promoting suicide because if you listened to it FUCKING KILL YOURSELF

>>71756396
wait can we redo this with closer vs. low?
cause according to this guy discovery didn't actually win
>>71752040
SILY
Spirit
Not really passionate about anything else there but I guess MBDTF
Pet Sounds or TVU&N should win though, for the board to retain any shred of dignity
>>71752040
Atrocity Exhibition

>yfw you realize there are zero female-fronted acts on this chart
>Yeezus winning over Flood
>Madvillany over Eno
>Remain In Light over SILY
>Radiohead winning everywhere
This board is pathetic
>>71758694
There are so few.
>>71750812
Literally 0 great albums in the top 8. Pretty sad state of affairs desu
>>71750385
Still Accurate.
endtroducing and deathconciousness is gonna go down to the wire
>>71758728
>Remain In Light over SILY
This one hurts the most personally
>>71758694
You have a point, most top tier dream pop acts are fronted by females and dream pop is also one of the best genres . In hindsight i don't know why none dream pop was mentioned, besides Fishmans which is more akin to jungle & bass anyway
In the Aeroplane Over the Sea will win.
>>71758694
where the fuck is bork
>kind of blue lost to loveless
jfc grow up u angsty bunch of grown ass men and women
>>71759079
Where do you think you are?
>>71750313
OK Computer is winning the next two round no matter what, but will lose to ITAOTS which will then lose to skinny fists
Kid A will lose to The Glow pt2. and skinny fists will take it
>>71759227
>Kid A will lose to The Glow pt2. and skinny fists will take it
Glow is losing pretty hard right now my man
>>71759250
>>71759272
Predictions made before checking votes, winner will still be the same though
>>71759023
this
>>71759291
None of these polls will change in the 24 minutes remaining.
Hey guys. I don't know where chart-guy is right now, but I need somebody to make the chart for the next round. I'm really busy right now so I can't, so any help is appreciated. Remember, polls close in 24 minutes, and voting for the next round takes place at 2 PM, EST.
>>71759331
Someone can just start with >>71750385 and (AFTER MAKING SURE NOTHING HAS CHANGED) add the percentages.
I don't want to do it because I don't feel like fucking around in GIMP with text.
>>71759331
don't sweat it, I've already started
>>71759403
Okay. Thanks a lot, dude.
>>71750313
>Neu! lost by one vote
im in pain
im salty over ITAOS winning over F#A#
>>71759440
Yeah
So let me get this straight, you're asking the best album of all time on a board dominated by 18 year old entry level hip hop fans?
And then you put clearly superior indierock albums against mediocre but popular af hip hop albums and expect actual results lmao.
You put Kid A against TPAB, and then The Money Store.... Moon and And Antarctica against Madvilliany... Loveless against The College Dropout/Sleep's Holy Mountain... Closer against Discovery... ITAOTS vs Odyssey & Oracle, MBDTF vs The Bends...
These are completely different bands, most the doof's on this board don't listen to both, so it's more like "oh which one do I like"
This is pointless because you're voting albums that are way different.
You could argue that all that matters is the final album, because if it didn't win earlier it wouldn't have won later, but it's about the same concept, but there are so many flaws here, but what would you expect from anyone but /mu/.
And no btw it doesn't have the potential to shape anything don't get too full of yourself for making a generic tournament.
etc etc blah blah
and you're dumb too
and fuck you.
>>71759614
not to mention you did all voting for this between almost midnight on east coast till still working hours and close voting in 1 minute
MORE 18 YEAR OLD FUEL.
FUCK YOU
>>71759652
>not to mention you did all voting for this between almost midnight on east coast till still working hours
voting opened at like 12 pm EST yesterday, what are you on about?
Albums older than 10 years should not have been included. The same Radiohead shit will just win over and over again, we all know how popular these albums are, we don't need to be reminded all the time.
>>71759673
I don't know fuck you thread was made 14 hours ago
>>71759714
We had two other threads before this one, anon. There's 24 hours to vote for each round. Calm down.
>Spiderland beat Feels and is now beating The Glow Pt. 2
Seriously, what is the obsession with this album? It's good, but damn
>>71750812
there wouldn't be ok computer without loveless
Loveless is the greatest album of all time
where can I watch this tournaments?
>>71759731
fuck you still I hate ethis tournament and I hope my favorite albums lose so I don't have to associate them with your dumb poop board
>>71759807
What?
>>71759819
how can a poop be dumb you fartface
BOYS
>>71759614
it's just a game dude, we all know that this is probably the worst method of all time to actually determine "the best album evar"
>>71760098
oh bby
>"we eliminated all the memes prior to the competition"
>OK Computer, Kid A, The Glow Pt. 2, In the Aeroplane Over the Sea, Lift Your Skinny Fists, and The Money Store are still in
>>71760098
BASED FISH
>>71760153
TMS and The Glow pt2 just lost.
>>71760098
How the fuck did Yeezus lose. This is rigged.
>>71760153
there are only meme albums in now maybe except the fish
>>71760181
>>71760198
Still in, as in they were still in the beginning roster.
>>71760202
what did you expect its always mucore on top crying about it is just stupid
Post poll
>>71760098
>Ok Computer vs Loveless
>MBTF vs Kid A
Radiohead will win both of these
We all know it's remain in light vs spiderland
Velvet will win as well, as will madvillain
98 is going to win as well
Screencap this
so in the end it's all just mucore...
>>71756807
Yeah, definitely
Should I make a new thread for the new round (which starts in 24 minutes, by the way)?
the fact that this never had merriweather is dumb as hell
>>71760098
>Rock Bottom losing to that chink shit
>>71760260
I'd say start it at like, quarter to. That's what you did yesterday I think
>>71756807
hadn't people decided we'd do one for each significant genre?
>>71760271
>>71760272
Alright. I'll make a new thread soon.
>>71760098
Ok Computer 51-49
ITAOTS 58-42

Madvillainy 53-47

it deserves it anyways, if it doesn't /mu/ has changed too much for me
