Just gonna shut this down before it grows another pair of legs.

Slayer has never been on the Austin 100 list.

So I have a selection of questions, decide if any are worthy. All but one seem reasonable.

1. How many members are in the group?
2. What style of music do they play?
3. From where to the band hail?
4. Is the album/artist in the general consciousness of the forum or is their appeal a bit more niche than that?(until you announce of course)
5. Eric is wrong right? Please tell me Eric is wrong!
6. What is the album?

1. 5ish
2. glitter bomb
3. outer space, but I don't think the same outer space as GWAR. maybe they are neighbors though?
4. a bit niche
5. I changed it to Slayer cause Eric can't be wrong
6. I'm still tryna figure that out

happiest of birthdays, you goofy curmudgeon. celebrate @Joe Mac by having a tipple and listening to this!

I'm guessing Speedy Ortiz - Twerp Verse

Definitely glitter bomb. Five or so members, but the star is Sadie Dupree. Niche band, and they've been on the festival circuit for a while.

 

[cul8er]

Sadie aka Sad13 also has a new album out. Check out her webstore, complete with a cute ghost for the pointer! Sad13

 

[duke86fan]

Honestly I didn't know glitter bomb was a genre

 

[Jonathan Y]

Can I guess a second one?

Chastity Belt - S/T

They've been at hella fests but i'm working so idk if u met them but ima hope for the best
2015 Austin 100
5ish members (they have 4 females which equals 5 men bc science)
glitter bomb? hell yea, they go hard af just like glitter is...and they're bomb

3. outer space, but I don't think the same outer space as GWAR. maybe they are neighbors though?

They're from WA!

Honestly I didn't know glitter bomb was a genre

I didn't know 5 Tyrs in a Trenchcoat had already released their debut album.

 

[debianlinux]

First time I've heard of glitter bomb as a genre but I think I get what it is anyhow.

 

[bfly]

Ooooh, is that the magnetic nail polish??
You must link if you have one.

this one was not magnetic, just a regular shifter. goes from red orange to black blue to violet depending on the light.

this week's polish is color changing though

I don't love love genres although I understand their usefulness, glitter bomb is a description of their feel and style.

this group blends genres to me. I can eliminate some genres: they do not rap. they do sounds and samples, but not an electronic genre.

I’m short enough to pull it off.

And glitter bomb would be a very appropriate band name.

I don't know what genre it is. But what I know is that I will love it.

Ooooh, I think I might need a manicure....

 

[Teeeee]

I no longer remember how to gif in the forum so my entrance is far less exciting than I imagined it in my mind.

Think About Life - Family

That's my guess, @gaporter Because I saw them play at the only SXSW I've been to and I know bfly was there. And I'm quite sure we overlapped at shows but didn't know it. And I like this band and they are glitter bomb. And it can't be Paula because she is but one person and not a group.

Happy birthday, @Joe Mac !!!!!

 

[Joe Mac]

Happy birthday, @Joe Mac !!!!!

@Teeeee



Good to see you!

Thank you! I’m a lil red wine drunk!

 

[Teeeee]

OK, I did forget probably the most important factor in guessing - the album should be available on vinyl.

DETAILS!

@bfly - just whisper the album to me. Please.

 

[Tyr]

Ok so do we have a front runner on these guesses yet? There are 13 pages of pure and utter shenanigans and I have no idea what’s going on.

Also, my guess: Hawthorne Heights - The Silence in Black and White

You act like somehow 13 pages of shenanigans is a bad thing...

 

[Jonathan Y]

So, the Austin 100 is an NPR compilation of SXSW acts that started in 2009.

Here are the following years articles/lists: 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020

As you've worked SXSW between 2011 - 2016, I'd initially be inclined to check those time periods above.

I'd also be reticent to include 2020 as it was cancelled, but a list still exists so, ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I don't know where this all leads, but I am trying to help parse through the literal thousands* of possibilities

You’re calling shenanigans?
