Welcome to the first annual Slackie Awards!
Hipster of the Year (fewest repeated albums in top 10)
And the Slackie goes to.......Earlobes Bookends!
Acceptance Speech:
"I would like to thank my brother for teaching me everything I know about music, being cool, and having opinions. I know people are going to ask me later, 'How did you do it, Sam??' My answer to those people is- easily. All I had to do was care about drumming more than any other musical aspect. Where are the drums, Sufjan? Where are the drums, Kendrick? Call me when you realize you need help."
Basic White Girl Award (most repeated albums in top 10)
And the Slackie goes to.......Tyty Polobro!
Acceptance Speech:
"You know all those snapchats where I looked like I was having a miserable time at a party? I wasn't really having a miserable time, I was concentrating very hard. It's important in those moments to internalize the music around you. Dubstep is cool. Justin Bieber is sexy. These are the moments most of you let slip by, but not me. I'm always lookin' for keys, always blessin' up."
Suggester of the Year (based on second question of survey)
And the Slackie goes to.......Mazzletov!
Acceptance Speech:
"I think my nuanced and revolutionary taste in music is mostly thanks to how much time I have each day to listen on the train on the way to work. There's really no secret. Just hours and hours on the train. Fuck you, trains."
Suggestion of the Year (based on first survey question)
And the Slackie goes to........IT'S A TIE!!!
Acceptance Speech:
Jk, albums can't talk, so I will. The voting for this was all over the place, which is really cool. Both of these albums got three votes, but Menomena, Taylor McFerrin, and Lady Lamb each got two votes also. It's cool that all five of the top voted albums were recommended by different people. I think that means the club is working. Thanks for being apart of it guys, here's to another year of discovery!
