Okay, no, I think I can safely
make it my no. #1 after all, if I want*, because quite beside it clearly having been developed over decades in secret government labs to PUNCH ME IN THE GUT UNTIL I STOP BEING ABLE TO BREATHE XD;; XD;;, it's also ridiculously impeccably put together. God, what a feat of production. *_* *_*
(Yes, I did manage to actually listen to it with my brain for long enough a moment, hahaha. I'M AS ASTOUNDED AS YOU ARE. XD XD XD XD)
*) which, admittedly: I don't think even THIS one can make me replace En haluu kuolla at the top spot, omfg. HOW IS THAT THING SO IMPLAUSIBLY HUGE?

In actually very, very related for once news: SCREW IT, I think I'll just submit my
poptimists ballot early this year. I'm not listening to much new music at this point anyway (although I really need to check up on new bass 12" releases from the last month before I start setting my personal list in stone), and iirc you can just amend it before roundup if there is mind-changing. ...Should probably ask about that. XD; The pmists list will definitely not be the same as my main one this year -- I'll be cutting out any bass that I don't feel the fervent need to rep for (well I mean, stuff is HALF of my top 20 XD; and it's not as if any of it's gonna get any other ballots), and dropping some of the moar pop stuff that I don't feel any specific personal attachment to -- which is why I'm considering submitting it already. (I will here make confession that, okay, the main reason I'm doing an abridged list for pmists is because
I REALLY REALLY WANNA REP FOR THIS ONE, and it's some 8-9 spots outside of my top 20, so. XD; XD;)
AND HONESTLY WHY AM I POSTING ABOUT MUSIC WHEN I'M SUPPOSED TO BE WRITING AGAIN. XD; XD; XD; okay, no, I do know exactly why: because that shit is currently way too porny for me not to run and hide from every now and then. XD; XD; YES, I AM PATHETIC.
