The Album Club 2017

**Frownland** · 07-20-2017, 04:04 PM

I like the format idea, it's like the old club. Ill do the modding business once I get home unless another mod beats me to it.

Thanks. Appreciate it.

OK, we're moving on. Remember, if you just can't get enough of bashing Casanova, or haven't had your say on it yet (keep in mind that even if you hate it you should review it, as your own album's place may end up in jeopardy if you ignore it and other albums as we go along) then please ensure you post in the Casanova thread, NOT the new one for Goldmund, and not here. The management thanks you for your co-operation, and also hates you for being so mean.

In an effort both to keep this main thread visible, and keep tabs on who's doing reviews, as people will be posting and talking in the separate sub-threads now, I'm going to keep a running list of who has reviewed each album, and who has not, so that there is no room for whining when/if someone drops off the face of the Earth and then wonders why their album has been removed from the list. Those who have reviewed are bolded, and the list will be updated as others get their reviews in. It's now Sunday, so technically anyone not bolded is late, but given that we have separate threads now I will allow an extra week as a "grace period". if you have not given your thoughts by then, you will be considered not to have reviewed the album, so try to get your **** together within the next week at the most please.

Updated.
Oh, before anyone starts asking "why isn't this on the OP where we can all see it?" two answers: one, there are only so many characters you can get into a post and the OP will be taken up with a list both of the current and recent albums reviewed as well as other stuff such as rules, and two, this is more for my records; a kind of "piece of evidence", if you like, that I can return to when someone says "But I reviewed that album!" If you don't realise you haven't reviewed any album any particular week, that's really more of a "you problem". It's one album every week, not, I would have thought, too hard to keep track of. If anyone is really unsure, you can always PM me or post.

Trollheart · 07-24-2017, 06:12 AM

Oh yeah: could Aloysius and Innerspaceboy please suggest an album for round two? If I don't get their (or anyone's) album by the week before it's due, obviously, it'll be skipped, and I don't want to have to do that. Aloysius, you're due week after next, ISB, the week after that. Thanks.

The Identity Matrix · 07-24-2017, 10:47 PM

Alright Trollheart I think I am in a position where I can participate again. Do I need to wait until Round 3 or can I join in for next weeks?

Aloysius · 07-25-2017, 03:13 AM

For my next choice I'd like to nominate:

Agustín Carbonell "Bola" (self-titled)
