Congrars Purple7x08_24 Theme?

The actual ****.

 

[raskolnikov]

I did consider giving Ocha905 a Raygun avatar but thought better of it.

 

[Purple7x08_24]

1990-2005

the 90s were one of the most nostalgic periods for me and there were many genres in their prime particularly for Punk Rock, Metal, Hard Rock, and the emergence of electronic music fueled by bands like Daft Punk.

I decided to extend it to 2005 as there were a lot of bands that shared the same style as those in the 90s right up to the mid 2000s.

No songs post round 401, no previous 1st place songs.

 

[Purple7x08_24]

I'm back at work, so be patient. If your song fits the rules, it's accepted.

 

[Ocha905]

5. Joy Crookes - "Feet Don't Fail Me Now" An easy 5 Ulahoopski
4. Souf - "Echoué" Yay some non-English representation MWPP
3. Gillian Welsh and David Rawlings - "Hashtag" myblueroan
2. Pale Jay - "Shameful Game" Lunchlady Doris
1. Jack White - "Bombing Out" TubbsFarquhar

Billy. NF - "Let You Down" I doubt there exists another song this awful. Sorry CG.

HM's. Barry Can't Swim and Little Red Band

Playlist rating. 2/10. Lots of boring songs.

Prediction -
G. Arctic Monkeys
S. Joy Crookes
Br. Gorillaz
"Worst Song" - Britney
Grade - B+ (easy round to pick though).

No songs post round 401, no previous 1st place songs.

You actually going to enforce it this time around? I don't want to see a song from 40 rounds ago like your last theme.

That's because it was a very very late nomination and I missed it in my haste.

Bonus points for the Easter egg.
