yes but 493 got votes

Ah.

Thanks AG but cannot find. Gmail is almost as odd as me. Nevermind, honest. Just curious. It's not crucial.

Thanks AG that was fun!

Ha, I gave the only vote to Destruction.

Thanks to seandalai for tabulating, sund4r for the recaps and to everyone who contributed. It was fun. Hope you all discover some good music.

if you got this on a shirt ppl would think it was a variation on the "scores when he wants" football chant

another #1 for me in 1999 aged 19, but this is kind of a trip to read in general. no idea what it says about ILM or to what extent it represents it but if you met someone and they had all this on their record shelves (or the 'rock' part of them, whatever) it would send out a message 'wkiw', even the bits you didn't personally like

My ballot, ranked up until Nomeansno:

Guns N' Roses - Appetite For Destruction
Big Black - Songs About Fucking
Pixies - Surfer Rosa
Rapeman - Two Nuns and a Pack Mule
