Does "post-70s" mean bands who released their first album after 1979, or bands who were not active at all before 1980?

Good call! I decided to not mention them because too small amount of material overall, but what is there is glorious.

I was debating it too, I figured 1 LP and 2 EPs should be enough to include them.

This is challenging. I'm only including bands whose entire output is post 1970s...it's still challenging. Alphabetically then:

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

Ignoring Paul’s scoring for the moment, there are a few bands showing up on more than list (and, because I’m ignoring the scoring, I have included all the honourable mentions). The results are perhaps not so surprising. If all the bands with only one mention are removed, this is what is left:
1. Porcupine Tree (8 mentions) 2=. Anekdoten (6 mentions) 2=. Big Big Train 4. IQ (5 mentions) 5=.Koenji Hyakkei (4 mentions) 5=. Present 5=. Wobbler 8=. 5uu’s (3 mentions) 8=. Änglagård 8=. Beardfish 8=. Cardiacs 8=. Dream Theater 8=. Izz 8=. Marillion 8=. Neal Morse 8=. Riverside 8=. Spock’s Beard 8=. The Tangent 8=. Thinking Plague 8=. Transatlantic 21=. After Crying (2 mentions) 21=. Cheer-Accident 21=. Deluge Grander 21=. Echolyn 21=. The Flower Kings 21=. Frost* 21=. Magenta 21=. Miriodor 21=. Pallas 21=. Solstice 21=. Talk Talk (Quick edit to take in to account the three posts following this one.) Edited by nick_h_nz - December 20 2021 at 05:23 |
