I in that case is current, not in impedance. Impedance is much closer to resistance.

Yeah, you're right. I knew that, but my brain saw 'I' and went with it. Should have just written out "V = IR" and left it at that.

Impedance is what the album generating process spat out at me!
I find the title/image more suggestive theme-wise than the band name, but the band name has points in its favor as well.

Those masks are very ambiguous. I'm tempted to send seperate Euro and Asian lists.

I'm tempted to ask why you'd be so literal.
But I really don't care.

Umm, I guess I could just throw in a bunch of random Nugent tracks and shit. But themes are fun.

Please nobody send any BIGBANG songs in (that's the Korean boy band in the photo). I took one for the team and listened to them. Nobody else has to.

Submitted! I interpreted the title as an opportunity to send in some of my favorite song covers.

I completely slacked on this one, and didn't send anything. I guess What You Are Not just didn't resonate with me.
|
Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

Sorry, I had planned to have it ready this weekend but I got derailed with Sjofn's computer problems etc. (also Mount and Blade...)
Will be ready soon!

I'm just glad that it's not just me who takes some time to process that giant fucking list of links. Did you get 20 GWAR songs too?

His list was about 20% the size of yours.

(edit) Although I guess it means there's a decent chance of something I submitted getting in this time.

Honestly if I had more songs to pick from I'd probably finish it faster. Its a little bit of thin pickings theme-wise and I'm waffling a lot on some of them.

Yeah, I can see that. I had 174 songs to weed through and I think I found about 25 that I thought were worth considering for the final cut. If I'd had fewer I'd have had to review the 70 songs or so in the "maybe" list.

It was sort of a difficult theme. I ended up selecting most of my submissions using the whole original quote, probably leaning too much towards the 'hated for what you are' part.

I would have some good ones, but it caught me at a bad time and was a pretty small submission window.

Personally, I thought it was easier than the first one. There are lots of songs about delusion, alienation, and negation that hang off the title very nicely. The problem is in finding songs that fit the theme AND don't yield another wrist-slitting emo mix.

I have a question related to this process.
Why do these albums have band names? Compilations have titles and sometimes genres but almost never a particular band they're associated with.

I was in a post-post new wave electroclash mashup mood at the time. And the picture fit. Forgive me.

As you will have it in your hands soon, I'll say a few thoughts on theme.
Basically there are 3 really obvious things that suggested themselves to me, without getting too complex or overthinking it:
1) Covers/mashups 2) electronic music (from the band name) 3) songs about lying/liars/etc
Then if you want to get more abstract with the whole what you are not thing, the option is there of course.
For some reason I got a *ton* of goth stuff. I had kind of been hoping I would have gotten enough from category #1 to make the entire thing neat/unusual covers but there just wasn't enough to work with there.
