I voted Tokyo Hotel by the way.

Yes, my mistake.
I read the front page with all those very small numbers on it for each band. I did not think to actually go to the voting page.

EDIT at 8PM: OK. I kind of found out about the numbers attached to the bands. I thought they were the actual number of votes. Too-quick reaction, I guess.

Actually voted!

Now I can say some official words - at least one of the bands I voted for is winning. It seems that NIN fans voting for NIN now. You have to admit that "Closer" is certainly one of the very, very few videos of The 90's that deserves it's well known status. Actually, The Downward Spiral was a major favorite car tape of the Summers of 94 and 95, visiting a cousin who shared some of my music tastes. Sometimes personal memories help out on my choices.

As for MBV, hey, I vote with my heart and thanks to Loveless, they got it. I'm still hearing the new one, but that one album that will be among one of my favorites (and it was a great album to drive with on hot Summer days in the country around 5-6 AM.). Tokyo Hotel certainly have their fans, although let's say that I'm not that into their music - agree to disagree.

Also voted for Jack White. Sadly, he's also being whomped in the votes by Linkin Park. Now THERE'S something to worry over in a very trivial kind of way.

My small contribution to Pop Culture has ended for the day...

Also 'teenybopper ****fest'. I conclude you are the one who is indeed 'mad'.

On a related note, I didn't much care for the new MBV. Perhaps it's a grower or whatnot but I already have Loveless so I don't have much desire to persevere with the new LP as many of you have effectively dubbed it Loveless 2.0 anyway.

It's the internet, dude. I'm not happy with the fact that people have the option to spam votes, shouldn't only one suffice? The fact that /mu/ is using scripts to exploit this only makes it even funnier. It comes down to whoever has the craziest fandom, and that's just retarded. Case and point, I don't like the fandom for Tokio Hotel, not so much the band.

And I'm one of the few people who view "M B V" as a separate album than a continuation from "Loveless". So good job as pegging me as some asshole "Loveless" worshiper.

Fair's fair. I give credit to Trent for continuing his musical adventures the way he wants to.

Never really was a Green Day fan, so I might want to give Deftones a vote later.

It was fun to go through and guess which artist would be winning by Mtv standards. There was about two close calls that caught me off guard.

Black Francis 03-21-2013 09:53 PM

Those are some random ass match ups

Bruce sprinsteen Vs Coheed & Cambria?

The boss man ofc!

im not voting on those weird ass match ups
i mean Blink 182 Vs Pear jam? C'mon.. >_>

djchameleon 03-21-2013 09:56 PM

I could easily tell Coheed and Blink would win those match ups. If it was like Vh1 doing the polls then the results would be the opposite way around.
