Allright since the thread in the games section seems to be on the wane hopefully putting it here will reach a lot more fine people. Anyways this is the official 2018 beama nominations, the ballot below are all the awards that will be up this year and this thread is meant to Nominate your choices for each one, with the number in paranthesees being the minimum-maximum number of entries allowed per category. Remember, more entries=greater weight of each choice towards nominations. Again you don't have to nominate for each category, just do as much as you can cuz would prefer to get in as many ballots as possible. Anyways, have fun, keep listening and don't steal JMan's art a second time (that's sick).
Tentative Deadline: Feb 17
Again you can either post here, the thread in the games section or PM your choices to me, all count as a ballot and any changes are accepted up until the deadline.

I'm still working out the kinks for 2018. I'll report back when I have some thoughts. Also, what the hell is BEAcore? Like Arctic Monkeys somehow ending up in the top 10?

So, uh, I'm going to go ahead and try and answer some of these.
Best Album
Aviary- Julia Holter
You Won't Get What You Want- Daughters
Some Rap Songs- Earl Sweatshirt
Limpid as The Solitudes- Felicia Atkinson & Jefre Cantu Ledesma
Think: Peace- Clarence Clarity
Safe In The Hands of Love- Yves Tumor

Best Song
Satan In The Wait- Daughters
Another Dream- Julia Holter
Beverly- Low Cut Connie
Azul- Zoe
Never Fight A Man With a Perm- IDLES
This Is It- Lo Moon
Street Livin' Black Eyed Peas (This song was pretty cool, and I found myself coming back to it on more than one occasion).
Trafalgar Square- Jonathan Wilson
Roaches- Maxo Kream
Pocketknife- Burger Man
Worst Album/Song
I don't actively seek out music to shit on anymore (barring having Greta Van Fleet shoved in my face).
Biggest Letdown
Boarding House Reach- Jack White
...IDK I always keep my expectations low.
Most Underrated
Dirty Pictures Pt 2 Low Cut Connie
Someone To Watch Over Me- No Babies
Lo Moon- Lo Moon
Love Jail- Dommengang (If you want some actually good "they don't make good rock music anymore" music)
Year of The Dragon- Hatchback (This is just a fun and pleasant album with zero pretension. It also has a song on it titled "Creamwave Dreamcave" which is amazing.)
Most Overrated
The top 3 albums currently. Although I never even listened to Kids See Ghosts. Kid Cudi is such a dope, I wouldn't care if he painted another Sistine Chapel; he's released too much crap already.
Best Lyrical Line
"Shorty is a burger fan/ selling me her buns/ well i guess that means that she's a burger stand"
Worst Lyrical Line
"I refused to be ashamed of my pretty blue eyes."- Tom "Whiteboy" MacDonald
Best Album Title
A Laughing Death In Meatspace
Born Again In The Voltage
Love, Loss, and Auto-Tune
My Mother The Vent
Joy As An Act of Resistance
Most Wannabe Anthemic, Self-Important Word Vomit that reads like bad GCSE poetry
Alright gonna bump this hopefullly for more awareness, but the response seems a bit apathetic atm. Remember you can do up to 50 for albums-songs, t he more choices the more weight towards your nominations, also remember to vote for a belated 2017 awards (just best album-songs). I would love it if you made it (a ballot, that is).
Yeah I think it's time to just do a best album & best track tournament, not enough interested parties and I'm not really going to have the time to put it together (especially when it comes to setting up a voting system). I do hope to do an end-of-decade BEAMAs later this year, however, and hopefully we can get enough people to contribute then.
