Quote from: DJChameleon on Apr 09, 2024, 01:18 PMCan we add Music for the Masses by Depeche Mode to the WildCard list. I don't know if that album has been in any other lists to date. You'd have to let me know GD.

Well, I see that Violator was already featured on the New Wave list, whereas Music for the Masses has not been featured on any list so it is quite eligible :) Will add.
This is the current list for the next Wild Card round then:
Wild Card #2 (incomplete)
1. The Beatles - Revolver
2. George Harrison - All Things Must Pass
3. The Rolling Stones - Sticky Fingers
4. The Chameleons - Script of the Bridge
5. David Bowie - Station to Station
6. Rush - Moving Pictures
7. Depeche Mode - Music for the Masses
8. -
9. -
10. -

And if you want to nominate some more albums (since we've yet to fill up the list) the page search function is your friend. Just go to the first page of this thread, click to show all the text hidden by spoiler tags, and then search for whatever album you'd want to nominate. :) This advice goes out to everyone participating btw

Also ANNOUNCEMENT: Since we're drawing to an imminent close for this battle, I'm going to officially state that Hardcore Punk will be our next battle! Editing the OP to reflect that. As always you can have a look at the list and see if you think there's any changes we should make before we commence:

Vote 4 off by April 25[edit]. Let me know if anyone needs the deadline to be longer but I hope this will be fine.

Also, the merging of the "80's Arena Rock" and "Arena-Oriented Rock" lists into AOR has now been made official, but the original lists can be found under "Canceled battles" on the first page for reference.


Since nobody has voted yet I'm extending the deadline by another 5 days. New deadline: April 25.

I have not really had much time to get ahead with listening but I'll try to finish up the list if not by the end of this round, then at least in a round or two.


Cro-Mags - The Age of Quarrel
Ceremony - Rohnert Park
Charged GBH - City Baby Attacked by Rats
The Exploited - Troops of Tomorrow



Only one person has voted, but I figure we might as well move on to the second round for now. That means it's a 4-way tie, so all of the ones Psy-fi voted for are out.

Uh yeah, so that's another three albums out all at once. This battle is going by a lot faster than I expected.
