that's the correct link http://rateyourmusic.com/b...=20&start=0

almost all my profile pics were specifically uploaded to make people look at them I HAVE NO SHAME. This is one of my favourite ones for a long while though, I think I might keep it for a bit.

Excellent start with grunge. Plenty more where those came from.

Try not to listen to that one too much. Playing morbid music creates morbid thoughts. I recommend 50 Foot Wave's "Golden Ocean." There's an uncommon argument whether it's indie rock or grunge. I think it's both.

what does it feel like to have made the official hip-hop board?

wouldn't you agree that there has been a renaissance in the genre since then, at least a little bit? Kanye came back stronger than ever, Kendrick debuted, cloud rap became a thing, just lots more action and new directions than in 2006 IMO.

wow man, so you created the hip-hop thread but you haven't heard good kid mAAd city!!?? Basically it seems like anything rock/indie rock has really fallen off and a lot of end-of-year critic lists will have a few hip-hop records way up top as the genre really is going in many new non-traditional ways like on Yeezus which I think is really exciting. Even though hip-hop has been around for quite some time it still has plenty of room for broad strokes to be made.

I can't post on the boards, but my 10-year RYM anniversary is coming up on October 2nd.
