POLL: http://www.rkursem.com/poll/view.php?id=dea86a7483e74dbae
Hello, everyone. Since the last poll was really biased because many albums weren't even listed since the beginning, this is the list with all the albums that got 1% or more in the last vote -- FEEL FREE to add any other album you want.
Let's finally decide what the majority of /mu/tants consider to be our essential, core albums.
Please remove "meddle AND DSOTM", my mistake, I didn't think I had to add them separately
this poll site is shite amigo
Also, where is hospice, bitches brew, long season, or f#a#?
>>65901505
Why do you think it's shite? It was the first one I found where answers can be added by users.
Long season, FA, Hospice all on the list.
>>65901493
All good, done.
>>65901427
We need more votes in the '10s poll since everything past the top 10 results are all tied with 5 other albums for the same spot
POLL: http://www.rkursem.com/poll/view.php?id=d739fe9d4a2bede0d
Here's the list so far
>>65901614
true
OLD BOOTS, NEW DIRT
>>65901427
Where is 0.02? Fuckin pleb
>>65901824
Literally no one has heard of this and it's from this year so you know it's not relevant
fuck off
>>65901824
0.02 is memecore
>>65901614
>6 of the top 8 albums are all death grips
Now that's fucking disgusting
>>65902092
i think it got haxed by a gripsfag
>>65901614
and look at how many ties are there in OP's poll, kek
The top albums are not surprising, mostly memes
Spiderland isn't discussed that much lately, glad to see it going strong.
>>65902486
>2 death grips albums
check again m8
I had to lock adding new options because some "funny" idiot added Government Plates 50 times, sorry friends
>>65901614
Can't find Deakin's album! fuck! a link maybe?
>>65901427
>blonde on blonde only has 6 votes
you people make me sick
>>65901775
let's bring it to the top
VOTE
>OP fails again, just like last time
>>65902500
kek
/mu/-core cannot be voted into existence
It just happens
>>65903168
>what is democracy
>>65902589
good but not /mu/core
>>65902562
meme chart
>>65903819
Not really, looks like standard /mu/-circlejerk
>>65901427
why is this up to a vote? some brexit referendum bullshit
It's good that a democratic poll has finally been made and it just goes to show how charts like this one are misleading.
In the Court of the Crimson King is here under /mu/core and it's not even in top 15 in the poll, Hospice, Funeral and Untrue which are sub-/mu/core aren't even in the top 30, Deathconsciousness is not even on the list (!), Spiderland isn't even in the sub-/mu/core and it is third in the poll etc., etc., etc.
This poll clears many things up. When there is enough votes, an official chart should be made.
>>65901614
disgusting
>a loose /mu/core canon was just tacitly agreed upon for almost a decade
>neo-/mu/ decides we need to make polls and vote for what should be included now
this is the most reddit shit I've ever seen here
>>65904992
if by "agreed upon" you mean "proponents of that album spammed it very frequently" then yes, it was 'agreed upon'
>>65901427
Well this one has results pretty similar to the old one
>>65905118
Memetic nature is exactly what has always caused albums to be considered /mu/core.
Now you want to basically vote on what our favorite memes should be, as some kind of self-appointed /mu/ "community manager." It's reddit shit, get out of here
>>65905226
>I don't agree with an idea
>it's reddit shit!
>>65905226
>>65904992
Here is reddit's list of albums kek
>>65905292
Kek, just compare what is considered to be classics on this list to what is considered to be classics on this list >>65904430
>90s are so old! those are the classics!
ahhh, reddit
>>65905278
I'm not making a bogeyman argument, I'm saying it's exactly the sort of thing that would be done by newfags who come from a place like reddit. They're not used to the decentralized, transient nature of everything here, and see a need to impose "structure", "leadership", and "order" on what they perceive as unstable. It's vain bullshit.
>>65905292
wew
>>65905409
Strawpolls appear often on /mu/ and are part of its culture, so polling is not that unusual. As for "structure" and "order" and that, that's true.
>>65905292
that's literally /mu/'s list
>>65905292
'indieheads' smdh
>>65901427
why does the current mu/core chart even need changing? this is needless. and if we are serious about 'voting' for the chart, get the mods to sticky some sort of voting thread, and keep it up for a fucking week or something.
>>65905292
This is a proof that reddit and 4chan have the same user base.
>>65905468
there are lots of impromptu strawpolls, sure, but it's cancerous to take an establish board tradition that worked on informal consensus and turn it into a formal voting system
next we should elect certain tripfags as our community leaders and give them the power to declare new /mu/core albums and intervene to resolve all arguments of taste
>>65905615
Let's do it
Here's the poll: http://www.rkursem.com/poll/view.php?id=d1654adce473acce4
>>65905512
I assume OP's used to be a redditor and wants to make an impact at his new 'home' :)
This kind of thread has become common recently, and as we all know, reddit influx is at an all time high.
>>65905654
>>65904430
>it just goes to show how charts like this one are misleading...In the Court of the Crimson King is here under /mu/core and it's not even in top 15 in the poll
Incontrovertible evidence that whoever's running this is a cancerous newfag
this shit needs to die
What the fuck is going on here
>>65905738
>this shit needs to die
it does. tyb gp spammer
We literally just did this yesterday.
>>65901614
More like recent listens core. This shit ain't /mu/core.
>>65905783
>>65905213
The chart does not match with the poll votes, what drug are you on?
>>65905654
topkek, let's do it
This desu
>>65905783
BOWIE BOWIE BOWIE BOWIE BOWIE BOWIE
>>65905807
It wasn't done using a poll. It was another thread that someone made, with a few albums on it, anons suggested what should be added/removed, and that's how the chart turned out.
>>65905292
what a bunch of /mu/ drones
>>65905783
Oh, no! How did we dare to do that?! We are bunch of reddit fags! Didn't you learn from people on this thread that doing charts of /mu/core is forbidden!
>Spiderland in 3rd place
when will this meme end?
>>65905865
back to

>making a /mu/core chart by informally asking /mu/tants what albums should be considered /mu/core
>it's just one of many unofficial /mu/core charts that have been passed around for years
vs.
>How do you do, fellow 4Channers? I made a polling system so we can decide once and for all on an Official /Mu/core Chart! :^)
yea no difference at all
>>65905292
I don't know if I should be impressed that they know some good albums, or disgusted that put those good albums alongside shit like the xx and white stripes and probably think those are on par with one and another.
>>65906016
do we not like the xx now?
>>65901427
yankee hotel foxtrot is good though guys really
>>65906016
do we not like white stripes now?
>>65905865
my sides
>>65905292
that's impressive but then you are reminded that subs like these also exist: https://www.reddit.com/r/popheads/comments/3xx5an/the_rpopheads_essentials_are_here_yuppppp/

im fucking done.
>>65906300
>>65906318
kill yourself
>>65906260
most of the classics section on that one is better than the entire other chart
Backstreet Boys though, wow
>>65906352
what's wrong, upset a poll isn't affirming your music tastes?
how petty :^)
>>65906300
what's it look like without the 2016 albums?
also to combat this >>65906340
what if you just counted the top album for each artist?
>some kind of blue
REEEEEEEE
>>65906410
my taste isn't /mu/core, and this isn't /mu/core
it's your personal internet ego project, cancerous shitstain
>>65906566
>someone makes a poll
>gets this angry
is there anything else you irrationally sperg out over?
>>65906466
literally just ignore the 2016 albums
>>65902562
No one listens to of boots new dirt so you should remove it.
Also it should not be like 10-20 albums.
>>65906566
>this isn't /mu/core
looks more like a "what's your favorite albums" poll tbqh
/mu/core charts are fucking banal anyways since half the albums suggested are held in high regards but not posted much which usually incites cries of "b-but /mu/core isn't a rankings chart you newfag" whereas the other half are posted far more often but not as acclaimed which only ever warrants "get these memes off the chart, none of these are even good"
>tl;dr
trying to make a new /mu/core chart is pointless
