Oh god, it's that sparingly updated list thing. I hate that.

Not very fond of any of them listed so far, but the Beastie Boys not being on here is a huge shock. They > Most.

[Bushmeister]

OUCH. If THESE guys are this low this year... Who the hell is on top?

I'd wager none of the bands I mentioned will get on the list this year either, sans Rage Against The Machine (did I even nominate them this year? Can't remember)

The Strokes are that low? Them and Ash are the only ones I like so far.

[Summers]

Yeah, but forty minutes has gone, and we so far know 4. It's fucking stupid.

I'm surprised to see Goldfrapp this low. I don't think I voted for them (Despite the fact I'm a huge fan) and if I recall they have a ton of fans here.

[Guest seattlebandfan9]

I am totally in suspense for the rest of the list.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

Mmmm I'm really worried about the list this year.

I see five bands I like making the list (probably peaking at about 30th).

I think these early results plus omissions that were on the list last year, prove that these lists are just what people on EWB are listening to when they post their nominations.

Beastie Boys being a prime example. Didn't they just release an album when the last list was done?

Yeah. And everyone here was talking about it.

No Placebo, REM, New Order, Deftones and low Ash......hmmmm....I'm not feeling it so far...

To be fair, it isn't labeled as a "greatest band of all time" thing or anything. My top five are all up there in my all time list if not at the very top, but 6-10 are more of a "what I'm into right now" thing.

And ack, the Strokes didn't do so well this year. Probably due to their lack of presence over the past year. And cripes, no spot for the Beasties. That's awful.

New Found Glory? Seriously? The rest I can deal with, I suppose. Blondie and PJ Harvey definitely deserve a spot on the list, but most of the rest are flavors of the month that won't be on the list next year.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

Good work on Blondie and PJ Harvey...Things may be starting to look up a little...

[GoGo Yubari]

New Found Glory? You sick freaks.

Blondie making it is good, though.
