"jesus shooting heroin" is not the track I would've chosen from that album

dan do you like the replacements? if so "everythings exploding" might be a way in for the flaming lips.

I voted for Losing Touch With My Mind but surprised to see any of the Spacemen 3 noms getting this high.

I fucking despise The Replacements aside from "Within Your Reach"

The Replacements: Classic or Dud?
― cake-like Lady Gaga (DJP), Wednesday, 26 September 2012 16:16 (thirteen years ago)
i dig them, but you def have to be choosy because theres a lot of kitchen sink missteps between moments of greatness
xpost haha well then. replacements lost me after tim, so i get it

here are some better flaming lips tracks from hear it is, tho tbh I would rate this album as just OK and the band as eh on the whole

YES to pay to cum
listening to that atm and realizing that i should clarify my comment abt messiness wrt the bad brains - the thing thats thrilling (yes i really mean that!) abt the bad brains is that they always sound like they are on the edge of total trainwreck. its one of the few bands from the hardcore scene where you can really tell that they are playing at the very limit of their considerable abilities all the fucking time, as opposed to just claiming to do so.

At this point songs you expected to make it might not, some you didn't expect might still. So make yer predictions as we are about to enter the top #25
― Algerian Goalkeeper, Wednesday, 26 September 2012 16:26 (thirteen years ago)
I do not get "edge of a trainwreck" vibes from Bad Brains at all really; I get "massively aggressive while not forgetting about tunes"
― cake-like Lady Gaga (DJP), Wednesday, 26 September 2012 16:26 (thirteen years ago)
PAY TO CUM YES YES YES.

prefer the single version of "pay to cum" but cannot find it on youtube

Pay to Cum is great but I love Banned in DC more tbh. Probably shoulda said something when that placed
― did drake invent yolo (Drugs A. Money), Wednesday, 26 September 2012 16:34 (thirteen years ago)
the only single version of "pay to cum" I can find on youtube sounds like the uploader held a mic to his stereo speaker to record it

bon scott 4eva
I remember being appreciative but lukewarm on Joy Division until I heard "Dead Souls", which really made everything else they did click into place for me; such a great, great song
I would not have placed it any higher than this, though
― cake-like Lady Gaga (DJP), Wednesday, 26 September 2012 16:42 (thirteen years ago)
xpost Yeah Back in Black feels like a top 10 tune to me. But I didn't rank my ballot so...
― This Is Nilbog, We Do What We Like (Mr Andy M), Wednesday, 26 September 2012 16:43 (thirteen years ago)
speaking of Bon Scott stand-ins, i'm now sad that Accept's "Balls To The Wall" didn't make the top 250
― some dude, Wednesday, 26 September 2012 16:45 (thirteen years ago)
oh well not every song, even ones you expect to, will make it
― Algerian Goalkeeper, Wednesday, 26 September 2012 16:45 (thirteen years ago)
you certainly tried to fit them all!
― some dude, Wednesday, 26 September 2012 16:46 (thirteen years ago)
has there been an 80s metal tracks poll? I could def stuff a ballot w/ accept and krokus and kick axe tracks
― vincent black shadow giallo (Edward III), Wednesday, 26 September 2012 16:47 (thirteen years ago)
There was one a few years ago. Rainbow won it
― Algerian Goalkeeper, Wednesday, 26 September 2012 16:48 (thirteen years ago)
oh wait, no not an 80s one

Man I hope my top 3 makes it!
― did drake invent yolo (Drugs A. Money), Wednesday, 26 September 2012 16:51 (thirteen years ago)
"Back In Black" really should have been higher. To me it's always seemed like the definitive "hard rock" song. My #1.
― gesange der yuengling (crüt), Wednesday, 26 September 2012 16:52 (thirteen years ago)

surprised "inhuman" ended up so high but not sorry to see it
― vincent black shadow giallo (Edward III), Wednesday, 26 September 2012 16:54 (thirteen years ago)
so is the rest of the list just MBV pixies and SY tracks?
― vincent black shadow giallo (Edward III), Wednesday, 26 September 2012 16:55 (thirteen years ago)
the lols you have given me just now
btw re: "Last Caress" by The Misfits, was there a big skate punk band who covered this? I know the song but never knew it as a Misfits song; I think I thought it was Charged GBH but that appears to be wrong too
― cake-like Lady Gaga (DJP), Wednesday, 26 September 2012 16:56 (thirteen years ago)
I finally figured out--the "best rock songs of the 1980s" and "Sonic Youth album tracks" poll results are being rolled out in alternating order...
― theStalePrince, Wednesday, 26 September 2012 16:56 (thirteen years ago)
Dear crut its not a metal poll or a heavy rock poll tbf
xp metallica covered it, dan
― Algerian Goalkeeper, Wednesday, 26 September 2012 16:57 (thirteen years ago)
that may be so but "Back In Black" rocks harder than anything so it is still my #1
― gesange der yuengling (crüt), Wednesday, 26 September 2012 16:59 (thirteen years ago)
anything except "Illegal Bodies" obv
I don't think the Metallica version is the one I'm thinking of...
