ASFM: The Other Countries - VIEWING PARTY. TONIGHT at 8pm

[Tisch]

New Zealand – The Dead C – Power
@octophone is bringing the real music to the party. @ZenGiraffe found unresponsive.

For the record this would probably have got points from me in ASFM

I could do with this not sounding like it's coming from behind an airing room cupboard door and throw in a big pop chorus, otherwise it's... okay

 

[dmlaw]

Enjoying the octophone entry. Quite sorry it’s not 12 minutes long.

 

[COB]

This isn't going anywhere quick enough for my liking unfortunately

 

[octophone]

I know, I know...but I have cranked this and I am floating right now

 

[RJN]

I have to go back to work but thank you @ZenGiraffe and all the people of every nation. I’ve loved a lot of these and will catch up later

 

[ButterTart]

This reminds me a lot of the sort of music I listened to as a student when I was off my face.

It's the middle of the night!

That's standard - once, when they were recording a radio session, they put their amps in cardboard boxes to get the "right" sound. The low-fi-ness is the thing.

I’m a stripper

 

[octophone]

I now return you to your regular scheduled programmes.

 

[Tisch]

I’m a stripper

for key workers

 

[jyxz]

It's the middle of the night!

I go walkin in my sleep

Is it true that Wyclef wrote ‘Perfect Gentleman’ about you?

 

[ButterTart]

Proving the point that the Ukrainians just get it, here's @Superstylin'
Ukraine - THE HARDKISS - 7 вітрів

I'm willing to put money on @dmlaw enjoying this one.

 

[COB]

Who's this fruity young beauty

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Oh HELLO.

 

[COB]

Who's this fruity young beauty

The fruit in this case being LEMONS

GOD, yes. Lots of this please.

 

[COB]

OMG

 

[octophone]

I mean, she was riding that bike like an absilute bastard, yet it's now night time and she's still there?

The Hardkiss appeared in my national finals playlist. Ukrainians just really do understand how to make satisfyingly overproduced music.

 

[COB]

Shaking and shitting and so on

I think Ukraine is easily my favourite music country. How do they just get it!?

 

[ButterTart]

@dmlaw has found the fittest girl band since Heart and we must all salute him.
Mexico – The Warning – Choke

Even with Maneskin rightfully taking over the world, I still think Shum should have won.

 

[jyxz]

Drummer in me now

 

[octophone]

I have a thing for drummers who keep their cymbals low and have an extra, ultra deep floor tom.

I love it when you get technical. Here's me just thinking 'how does she not drop the sticks?'

 

[ButterTart]

Sisters, too.

I'm disgusted at how much hotter that makes this.

 

[jyxz]

Sisters, too.

Secret Sisters?

 

[ButterTart]

CHOKE ME

 

[octophone]

I don't like 5-string basses tho'. That's just showing off.

 

[COB]

This is incredible!

 

[ButterTart]

@ZenGiraffe bawdy Russian filth incoming.

Russia - Olga Buzova - Water
Another from my ASFM shortlist.

 

[COB]

WIG!

 

[ButterTart]

And here's that unnecessarily colossal hat I was referring to earlier.

" I always knock around Vistaprint in this"

 

[octophone]

The product placement is
