. . . and as an interesting side note, this tournament is pretty entertaining, this match up in particular. I actually checked this site BEFORE Facebook or e-mail this morning.

I just registered yesterday, and it won't let me vote in the poll. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? SB gets my vote, by the way

Yes. I couldn't tell you how many people used to post here in 2005 and 2006, and haven't seen since. Some people also take extended breaks. I wasn't really here in 2007 and part of 2008.
|
Also some people haven't heard enough from these bands to make a good vote in good conscience. I've only one Spock's Beard album (X, though it is good), and I have heard snippets of GY!BE on youtube, though I have streamed the whole Lift your skinny fingers. I can't in good conscience vote having only heard that.

Just look through the Memberlist. I'd be willing to day 50% of the members haven't logged in in over a year, and most are newbies.

In the same way, no doubt, that the members of GY!BE "literally masturbated" to the likes of The Velvet Underground, Talk Talk and Tortoise in their teens

I've given a few of these "Post Rock" bands a good listen, GY!BE among them.
Also Mogwai, Sigur Ros, etc. Do they qualify? I've got loads of stuff by the latter.
What I hear (and it's just my opinion) is musicians of limited ability trying desperately to sound epic and interesting with the use of effects and (so called) soundscapes.
It's just different tastes that's all.
I was disappointed when Talk Talk went from The Colour of Spring to Spirit of Eden and prefer post-Meddle Floyd. I suspect fans of GY!BE would say the opposite.
No probs.........
