It’s never too early to get planning! Last year, I posted a poll soliciting reader input for the next Deep Dive, and I liked that. I’m repeating it this year, with a slight tweak. Last year, you could only vote for one artist. This year, you can vote for as many as like. This poll is, ultimately, non-binding, but I will seriously consider the results before choosing an act.
I’ve embedded it below, but in case WordPress gets all funky on me, you can view the poll here, too.
If there’s a band/artist you’d like me to cover you don’t see here, add them to the poll! A few notes about whom I’m willing to consider.
- ELP probably has the smallest discography I’m okay covering, and they put out 10 studio albums (including Emerson, Lake & Powell). I may make considerations for other bands, but don’t expect me to cover Änglagård’s three-album repertoire.
- I’d strongly prefer the band to either be defunct (or at least no longer recording) or putting out music infrequently. I regret covering Steven Wilson while he’s still fairly prolific. I don’t like going back and updating that Deep Dive with every new album.
- I have already covered the following artists: Yes, Jethro Tull, Porcupine Tree/Steven Wilson, Rush, Pink Floyd, Magma, Van der Graaf Generator, King Crimson.
And that’s it! I don’t know when I’ll make my decision. As long as this poll is still pinned to the top of the site, I’m still considering votes!
For redundancy, here’s the poll, in case the embedding doesn’t work!
