Last Chance To Vote In The 2007 Gummy Awards

Well it's come down to this. It's our own private Iowa and our election day, all rolled into one: The next 24 hours are the last you'll have to nominate (i.e. vote) in this year's Gummy Awards. (Look it even has a url! So you know it's official.) We're not supposed to hint at standings 'til results day, but you know that album you thought was a lock? You know, that one? Turns out it's not! Change that. Extra spice to the sauce: One member of the electorate will be randomly selected to take home the Top 50 CDs as chosen by the voting public, courtesy of Other Music.

Polls close at 6PM EST 12/6 (tomorrow!).

Vote here.

You mean the new Seether album ISN'T going to be #1? Well I just lost a lot of money on that one...

Judging by the top 50 lists we've seen so far this year from the music rags, I can definitively say that I would have no damn clue what would be a lock for best album. (Although at least one of my nominations got stolen out of my car this morning.)

I think Boxer was "the lock." Going through my own personal favorite records of the year, I think 2007 was a better year for music than 2006 was. Sure, this year was certainly marred by some major disappointments by some of the larger, more established acts, but overall, a very good year nontheless.

I can't fucking believe Spoon is going to win album of the year. So lame.

Oh blow it out your ass Matt Berninger. You negative Nancy. I'll pick Spoon over whatever bullshit you've got in mind for #1 any day of the week.

even though i voted already, I' not finished setting up my personal top 10, Spoon's album gets better with every listen, i didn't vote for it in the top 3 but it might make it to No. 1 by the time I finish editing my list.

Band To Watch: Hospital Ships

As we pass saturation point for press coverage of Montreal, Portland, Brooklyn and et cetera, it seems Lawrence, Kansas is poised for its coming turn in the music media trend piece carousel. At least from what we're hearing; this marks...

Quit Your Day Job: Ungdomskulen

The Bergen trio Ungdomskulen play proggy post punk, mixing chops and hooks with a sense of humor. But they don't sound like Primus. When I was in Norway a couple years ago, "Ungdomskulen" seemed to be on everybody's lips (or...

Premature Evaluation: Beck - Modern Guilt

It's been some time since we learned Modern Guilt, Beck Hansen's eighth album, would be some sort of psych rock minimalist '60s trip with Danger Mouse. Since then, we've gotten a look at the old-school jazz/Blue Note-style cover art and...

Video Hangover: Papa Roach - "Getting Away With Murder"

Every week, we dig in the archives for videos that we find noteworthy, memorable, or just unbelievably stupid. And then, Jon McMillan breaks 'em down for you. This week: Papa Roach lands an uppercut on the glass jaw of big oil.

Damien Jurado - "Murderer" (Low Cover)

After hearing "Gillian Was A Horse" from Damien Jurado's forthcoming Caught In The Trees, we contacted the Seattle singer-songwriter and asked if he'd want to premiere a track at Stereogum. Lucky for us (and you), it turned out he had...
