This 'game' (if you would like to put it) is fairly simple and straightforward. Basically, one person posts a link to a song (preferably using YouTube), then another person listens to said song and gives it a rating out of ten and leaves a song to be rated and the cycle repeats. Do not rate a song that was posted by you. Also, if two people rate a song at the same time, then whoever posted first is the one that has to be reviewed. This has worked very well on another forum I am a member of and has accumulated almost 500 pages and nearly 10,000 posts.

I'll get the ball rolling with:

Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown), The Beatles

Gotta say I really enjoy this. Always meant to listen to Eels, but never got around to it.
9/10


Converge - Trespasses

4/10

I don't get Converge. And I've given them PLENTY of chances.

Rotten Sound- "War"

My ears feel like they're going to bleed; and not in a good way. Too noisy for my liking. 2.0 out of 10.0.

Rock Lobster, The B-52's
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2V2h_Bd_Gg

Rock Lobster is a solid 10/10, love that song.

And for what it's worth, that Rotten Sound song was OK. Maybe a 7/10 from me. Would like it a lot more if the production was crisper. The guitars turn to static and it is kinda difficult to really figure out what's going on when they go into their machine gun riffs (this coming from a guy who enjoys his fair share of "recorded in the basement on an ancient tape deck during a hurricane" black metal).

Vocals and drums are fairly clear though, so I'll give it a plus for that. Listening to the rest of the EP, it's much better when they slow down and you can actually hear what's going on with the riffs instead of being bombarded with a wall of noise.

Either way, you get Rotten Sound, but you don't get Converge, huh? :P.

Yeahhhh, Converge are up my alley, but I just don't care for the band. And Isis is always worth a pretty good rating, this song would be about 8.5.

Fleetwood Mac- "Over My Head"

Not one of my favorite Fleetwood Mac songs, but a solid one. A little too much on the mellow side. 6/10
