Ratings key: 
10 - One of your very favorite artists of all time.
9 - Killer fucking band.  Or artist.
8 - Great sound, great songs, great albums.
7 - Very good, but not quite great.
6 - Pretty good.  More than a few songs you like.  You'd entertain the thought of seeing them live if they were in the area.  Or still alive.
5 - They're okay, but maybe not something you'll go out of your way to listen to.
4 - Meh.  There may be a song or two, or an album that you dig, but you'd rather listen to other stuff.
3 - Not very good.  You will more likely than not turn the station if they come on the radio.
2 - Not your cup of tea at all.  Some people like this, but you are not one of them.
1 - Horrible in every way.
0 - In the running for worst artist/musician of all time.  You would rather take a cheese grater to your face than listen to this.





























Current Standings:
6.83 - Journey
6.66 - Prince
6.33 - Eminem
6.09 - Weezer
6.02 - Daft Punk
5.00 - Lady Gaga
4.66 - Avenged Sevenfold
4.53 - Bruno Mars
4.33 - Linkin Park
3.66 - Babymetal
3.63 - My Chemical Romance

First of all, not my kind of music.

I was a teenager when the "one more time" video hit MTV. My reaction was more WTF than anything, as I didn't listen to anything at all like that.

However, enter Random Access Memories. There's just something that clicks about this album to me. It feels incredibly disjointed at times but it's executed and produced magnificently. I haven't listened to it in a few years, but was blown away about nearly everything about it. Again, perfect execution.

Everything else they did? Wouldn't know. I learned long ago not to view videos on NA. But harder faster stronger, in name, reminds me that I have heard that one. No opinion on that one.

No idea how to vote

Solid 8. I love their songs. So catchy. I mean they're not the BEST artists but they're up there. Probably top 20 for me.

Saw them live in 07 when they started a comeback. Really not a fan of their newer stuff, but Homework was good and their live stuff is good too

I was honestly going to put a 10 for them, but I had to go with an 8. What stopped me was the fact that when I do throw on their music I listed to them for days at a time, but they aren't my go to musical choice. I probably should have voted a 9 actually.

I could listen to this looped for quite some time.

I went 5 but should have went 7. I checked out some more of their songs and found I liked it more. I too have been getting into music like this recently.

I collect SNES, and have extras I need to rid myself of. If you have needs, worst thing you can do is ask if I have it, or view my FS thread!

Went with an 8. Really solid group. Would definitely go see them if they ever toured again.

The last four weeks I have given scores of 4-5-3-5.

Someone sure likes to project their own self-centered'ness onto how I would run these things.

I was hesitant to do this many songs, even cutting one at the 11th hour. I'm not sure what the magic number is, but it seems like 4-5 is not enouh to capture a group's "bangers", while 6+ might be too many to expect most people to sit and listen to.  I figure other people can go ahead and start linking any other songs that they think are noteworthy.

Some bangers for sure, but I wish they'd do just a little bit... MORE with their songs. Like they could take all the cool stuff they did in 2 songs and make 1 really great song with it. But I'm probably spoiled by listening to more modern groups that were likely inspired by Daft Punk, so I still think they deserve good scores. Which it looks like they're getting.

And they're still way better than Deadmau5, who spreads 1 song's worth of content over like 4.

This is pretty damn cool if you have some time to kill.  The entire movie they made about those anime characters.
