ILM : The Top 100 Metal/Heavy Rock Tracks Of All Time - Presented By Our Host, Henry, ILM's Favourite Heavy Metal Dog! THE END IS NIGH! (FIN)

what if i scratch yr ears

I sent steak for you to your owner, didn't he give it to you? The post office said he signed for it.

No, I'm just taking offense to you awarding one human and one dog most favored contributor status in a thread, making the rest of us feel like garbage. Classy.

Ha, I'm not sure the TRU METAL DUDES would necessarily agree with your opinion, Herman. But I've been enjoying myself a lot, and listening to a bunch of stuff that I wouldn't usually do.

xposts (I'm sure he was only joking, JF)

we love johnny fever

emil.y otm

Anyway, "War Pigs" was one of the two Sabbath tracks I voted for. I have no doubt the other one will be in the top 20 at least.

xp I know. I am universally loved in ILM poll world!!! (saw your email, it's cool.)

me too!! I wonder if we're thinking of the same track...

Probably, if it starts with P and ends with a D.

I just realized it would be hilarious if Jethro Tull beat Metallica in the albums poll.

GOD BLESS ALL OF YOU!

i thought it would be too low for you

I thought Children of the Grave was way too low, this I think is appropriately placed.

Another one I voted for coming up

35.
Soundgarden - Jesus Christ Pose (1991) (455 Points, 11 votes - TWO #1's

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=umHoQBZeXJQ

Soundgarden songs are getting ranked in these results completely opposite of my own personal preference.

henry say hi to me

Let's zip out 4 more tonight so you can do the top 30 tomorrow.

OK!

Time for a Hawkwind worshipping band (again)

My favourite song by this band. God, their early run of albums was amazing. (i do like power trip and the one after too, but i can see why other old fans dont) but i love this song so much.)

Monster Magnet - Negasonic Teenage Warhead (1995) (459 Points, 13 votes)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aKj5cJ9_KSg&feature=av2e

"It's a Satanic Drug Thing, You Wouldn't Understand."

oh and to answer emil.y from earlier, i've never smoked anything or taken a recreational drug in my life (and yes i love stoner rock/metal)

Again, I find it weird that anything by Monster Magnet would be one of someone's ALL TIME favorite hard rock songs...but I guess a lot of factors go into why we like what we like.

maybe because it's a song in one of my fave genres, that i was big into when it came out. Like Rush is for the over 40s and others into 80s hair metal.
Plus i guess not everyones into the canon even in metal? (tho i am)

when i saw MM co-headling with Qotsa, i was jumping about like a maddy during this song (even more than usual)

Hey, I'm not over 40 yet! I'm only 36. :P

I'm 37, but i didn't really discover non chart rock/pop til i was 18 and nirvana broke. (like a lot of people, Nirvana was a gate way to Metal and/or Indie)

I hated the late 80s hair metal fluff one of my mates was into, but thrash & death was too heavy for me. When i heard slower doomier stuff i got sucked in.

Monster Magnet was awesome at one point - truly great, and this song is part of that era.

next song is by one of my fave bands, which came from one of my other fave bands, i voted for 3 tracks by this band, but not this one , it got cut.. What the hell do I know what will place high!

33.
Queens of the Stone Age - Avon (1998) (460 Points, 12 votes - ONE #1 vote)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bekjJoGl5k

everyone gone home?

Sorry, I just got distracted by twitter cluttering up my sidebar with yet ANOTHER socializing feature I have no use for. I'll follow who I want, okay?

But yeah, Queens. I'm not really a fan of the first record.

I'm waiting for more than one of the ten I voted for to show up. Utter crime that "Victim of Changes" was so low, especially with "Three Days" (which is such a pale shadow of it) placing higher. But such is life - I don't really care about the tracks.

it's the best one! As much influenced by can and neu as sabbath or stoner rock. Josh called it "robot rock"
xp

hey ez, was wondering where you got to! If you had voted for more than 15 (actually 10) your tastes might have been better reflected instead of johnnys!

2 more to go for tonight. Im posting the next one then Henry to finish

I should probably listen to it again, then. I haven't heard it in 9 or 10 years. xxp

your tastes might have been better reflected instead of johnnys

My tastes are being reflected? Sure, I've had some things I voted for place, but I'd hardly say this overall poll caters to my taste.

I was in New York and posting from my ipod is annoying. Plus, I was really sick which made it a pretty crappy short vacation - except for catching up with Alex, which was a blast.

JF i meant you helping him get to 15 hehe
ez sorry to hear you were ill, hope youre better soon.

The next track has organ and keyboards for emil.y, and one of the greatest metal guitarists ever. I love this song, I even voted for it.

any guesses?

I was gonna suggest Deep Purple.

(But I don't think Blackmore is really anything to rave over?)

nope..
