...Favorites who retired in the last round, as on command:
- The Smile
- Black Country, New Road
- Black Midi
- Jockstrap
The formula that unites these projects is:
Black Country, New Road = Joy Division, New Order
In 1979, few people believed that Joy Division would become the prototype of the best band of all time....

...Admittedly, I can't think of why he'd refer to New Order as the "best band of all time" when he doesn't even have any of their albums in his All-Time Top 75 chart. (I assume he's referring to Joy Division as their "prototype" because his English skills are a bit limited and he couldn't think of the word "predecessor.")...

I really constructed this phrase incorrectly.
I should have opened the thought with an additional link.

The Smile - Skirting on the Surface
In 2021, I accidentally found out, which single RYM recognizes as the best for 1979.
Joy Division - Transmission.
I have never treated this group with much attention.
It turned out that in 1979 this single did not even enter the UK top 40.
I read the translation of the song - the group has fulfilled its transmission.
The world turned upside down on radioheads in 2000 was no coincidence.
I'm the only one who didn't even know about this conspiracy.))…

The Smile (Radiohead << New Order << Joy Division - Transmission)
Black Country, New Road (Joy Division, New Order)
black midi (black midi, new road << Black Country, New Road << Joy Division, New Order)
Jockstrap (Georgia Ellery << Black Country, New Road << Joy Division, New Order)

A late comeback by Alvvays would only prove the conspiracy theories, so I suggest we stop counting now Mr. Green

...This actually has a lot to do with recent Western adoption of Ukrainian-based transliterated spellings for Ukrainian place names in English. So whenever we spell the Ukrainian capital "Kyiv" instead of "Kiev," Russian propagandists treat that as "proof" of a "conspiracy," i.e., an attempt by Western media and politicians to "de-Russify" Ukraine — which as we all now know, they consider as rightfully belonging to Russia. During the past 8-9 years, they've conditioned their people to believe Ukrainian culture and language are all just an "illusion," or a kind of "mass psychosis." That's on top of the fact that conspiracy theorists in general are already super-into things like intentional misspellings, numerical coincidences, weird symbols, and so on. And of course Russians also use the Cyrillic alphabet, so the whole Latin character-set is foreign to them to begin with...
