I don’t get including Pandoras Box. It’s a Jim Steinman album.
I was on that wavelength but it fits the rules and I said f*** it.

first update. still a few albums to listen to even though it would be a bit too quick to judge.
Will add expeditiously
Let's not do this right now.
Editing my list and adding Slowdive right now, but not including Pandoras Box.

Pandoras Box fits into the ruleset and Slowdove does not

No it doesn’t.
No it doesn’t.
Yes it does. Steinman only has non-singing vocals on a skit. The rest is female vocalists. Slowdive singing duties are split
Asking again where the f*** do I hear Pandora's Box
This is my favorite track by a female artist

And this is my second favorite track by a female artist

This is my favorite track by a female artist

why are you being so difficult. Didn't you wanna abstain from this list? It's a difficult ruleset to even make in the first place. Leave it alone

I want to abstain from every list when they’re first announced, but over time I come around to the idea. Once I’m on board I’d rather the rules be consistent. I’m a huge fan of Pandora’s Box so there’s no reason for me to be difficult about its inclusion. I just don’t think it fits the bill.
F***in Fidelio. Didn't wanna participate a and now he's the list master.
Fella*

Ok why are you being difficult though? Did you not see the ordeal I had to go through to try to make the rules coherent in the first place. Give me a f***ing break and f*** off
It’ll just be you two voting for it then. What a waste.
So is every album in list history that gets two votes and makes the bottom half of the list "a waste of votes"? We were always going to be the only two votes since everybody memes on it itt anyways. Your argument is a waste of space
It’d be like if Brian Eno had a an album with a bunch of female guest vocalists on it and we called it an “album by a female artist.” The misogyny in here. Yikes.

No. I would have also voted for it if it made any sense to.

in turn you would have to exclude every other album not written mostly by a female artist. This would be the same. This would mean a lot would fall off. Especially earlier albums, albums by pop stars etc.. I think you should also be able to do it vice versa. (Genuine Tong's Funeral is written by Carla Bley but released as a Gary Burton album and that should fit the bill).
However, I get you because it's conceptually a Steinman album.
f*** it, idc. I'll change my list so I can include Ethel Cain. Love A House in Nebraska too much to not include it despite a few shortcomings of the album.
edit: updated

I think this is different than just writing. Steinmann is the auteur of the project.
