I've gotten a few more requests for a Plaid subforum, and my reasons in the past for not putting up a subforum have been due to Plaid having their own "official site" (although no forum), and also Plaid not being one of the artists we cover on WATMM (I know, already inserting my foot in my mouth...). Plus, I personally feel their output is a bit hit-or-miss, with their more recent output (IMO) bordering more on the 'miss' side of things for me. Granted, Plaid do have their place in electronic music history, especially if you include the Black Dog era. Although, like Joy Division/New Order, I don't really connect the two acts other than they share some bandmates that carried on after the demise of the previous incarnation.

 

But, I figure, why not - if there's demand for it, having a forum wouldn't hurt, although the Plaid-related threads I've recalled seeing are few and far between.

 

And, before any Snares fans start saying "what about a Snares subforum...", let me reiterate, there will NEVER be a Snares subforum on WATMM. Period, end of story. Ain't gonna happen, sorry. Nothing against Mr. Funk personally, I just can't stand what he produces that is mistakenly referred to as "music".

 

So, let's vote, see what WATMM in general says, and if there's sufficient demand, we'll give it a shot. Worst thing that could happen is it's a dead forum (no posts of value or activity), and the few posts generated get shifted back into General Banter.

i like plaid more than ever. i'd rate them miles above vibert and ziq.

 

While I do enjoy Plaid, and I really hate making music into a competition, that statment needs some serious qualification.

 

Anyways, I voted no.

I'd rather see Clark up than Plaid.
