I mean, I'm cool with that. That would be my ideal Super Bowl. I can't handle seeing the stupid Patriots in another Super Bowl.

Agreed. My biggest concern is for the Texans to beat the Patriots. I hate the Patriots and I can't handle a loss to them next week if we do lose next week. However I could handle a loss to the Texans. Plus, I think our chances are better against the Texans than the Patriots.

I didn't get to post this last night but THE BALTIMORE RAVENS ARE THE GREATEST FOOTBALL TEAM EVER AND I LOVE THEM SO MUCH

Conan O'Brien's serious interview with Jack White is so totally worth watching. Very interesting discussion.

Now THAT'S the kind of Notre Dame game I like to see

Ok, so you were totally right about the Japandroids album. Very good.

That would probably be because I never got the chance to listen to that album. But I will do so soon. I have it, just never got around to it. Though based on your list, it seems I should listen to it soon.

I didn't know Asteroid Galaxy Tour were friends of Songfacts, they're great. And I'll have to check out Bobby Womack's album

We certainly do. Easily the best album of the year I think.

Ah I just realized that I forgot to put Beach House's "Bloom" in there. That'd probably go around 25ish.

No problem. Didn't get the chance to finish the results that night anyways. Will be posting soon

Hey Bluesboy, you've got two 6's. I'm doing the final tally now so I'm gonna just shift all of them down one and take out the vote for The Doors, let me know if you want something different done and I'll adjust it afterwards.

1. The Rolling Stones 2. The Ramones 3. AC/DC 4. The Beatles 5. Aerosmith 6. The Who 7. Grateful Dead 8. The Doors 9. Metallica 10. Yes

I would love to see that data. So far this whole conversation for the most part has been claims with little to no empirical data to back it up.

Ok, so I totally lied. Voting will close sometime this week, probably around like Thursday or so. Been too busy.

Also this:

Graphics for your consideration:

Alright, so it seems like everyone is done voting. I'll leave voting open through tomorrow and then I'll cast my vote, add them up and give the totals.

I haven't finished my top ten yet, but I know for a fact that Between The Buried And Me's new album will be on there

Speaking of which, here is Pitchfork's top 50 albums of the year

Haha well I figured since we're blaming whatever we can think of, might as well cover all of my bases

We can all agree on one thing
