I don’t know a lot of their stuff from the last decade or more, but I used to love Meshuggah. I think “I” is a masterpiece.

(His drumming is insane, obviously.)

Great reveal and write ups. I’m going to grab up a few of these.

Congratulations to cassette. You can slow down now, buddy.

Thanks for the reveal and for putting in the work twice and still delivering on time. I think we have definitely and conclusively proven that metal >>> Jazz.

Congrats on the win! I couldn’t tell which of your replies to songs throughout was you identifying your song. I was confused.

I’m not writing in many complete sentences today. One of those!

@pyatnitski Would Mississippi Delta Blues or Mississippi Hill Country blues have counted as folk music. Your musicologist definition of folk in your category description would suggest they would have. I didn’t want to gamble though and I’m happy with how it worked out.

I certainly don’t know enough to have disqualified them!

Continuing along, still clear daylight at the top.

(I could start posting the table with the two scores removed around now, I think, are people cool with that or do you prefer the ‘mystery’?)

I kind of like this one for jazz. I don’t think it’s great or anything but it’s better than I’d expect from a generic jazz entry. Gets kind of weird towards the end though.

My wife basically argues that I should enjoy jazz because it’s complex and difficult. I can appreciate it while not actually finding it aesthetically pleasing. This piece has something going for it but it’s also not great.

Sure thing!

I haven’t done the math but I assume this brings NBZ roaring into contention?
