Lifetime of ILM 2000-19 Heavy Rock,Noise, Heavy Psych, punk, emo, nu-metal & Metal (or related) Poll Nominations (All welcome to participate) Noms close 23:59 November 8th

It is weird having to deny ourselves nominating all sorts of extremely heavy/weird avant-indie stuff while the lightest and fluffiest of emo gets a pass

fluffy emo isnt getting a pass but things like hardcore derived emo, nu metal, trad metal, punk etc tend not to ever get recognised in the big ilm general polls so why not give those fans a chance to take part?

idk there's some fluffy-ish stuff in there ;)

i think i've snuck a bit of metallish indie in there anyway

there's more to music than people with synths! ;)

i let you keep thumpermonkey lj so you better quite the false whining as your choices will be the first to go! :P

I've been listening to those Menace Ruine albums lately; man, they are such gems! Not a ton of hook as you'd expect from a medieval folk/drone project but just the sound of the organ and her voice and the way it's recorded, just amazing.

I haven't thought about them in three or four years but I actually think I like them now more than I used to!

The White Stripes - Icky Thump

The White Stripes - Hello Operator

Noms list light on depressive black metal. It's a crisp sunny early autumn day. Perfect weather for it...

Nortt - Fra hæld til intet
Lifelover - Mental Central Dialog
Make a Change... Kill Yourself - Chapter Two
Xasthur - Cemetary of Shattered Masks
Xasthur - Prison of MIrrors

Realistically, the Nortt track is probably the only one that I'll vote for, but if you have the patience for the "Make a Change..." song, it really evolves into something beautiful. The whole album is worth checking out.

I like what Xasthur I've heard

I dont think much/any metalcore has been nommed (except hydrahead/deathwish inc stuff that is more the old meaning of the genre, not the actual metalcore that dominated the metal mainstream in the 00s)

If there's any fans of that stuff around please feel free to nominate/playlist it/vote for it

and, yes, screamo is allowed too

and if you dont nominate it nobody can vote for it so please nominate your fave songs and share them to the Collaborative Spotify playlist so others can enjoy them.

but please check the Nominations Spreadsheet first so you don't nominate something there already.

Make that:

Nots - Reactor

Haha, I look forward! You've saved me a couple of nominations already in Melt-Banana and Lightning Bolt. I had totally forgotten about Pretty Girls Make Graves too, so I appreciate the reminder.

I love Khanate and am listening to a lot of it right now, trying to pick out favorites. It's been a long time since I dug into their stuff. It holds up.

thx for nomming an al-namrood track tt - i had a few i was considering but couldn't really settle on one so thx for taking the decision out of my hands :p

No problem - it was either going to be that or Xenophobia off the latest album. I love not being able to comprehend the source of half the sounds in their songs. Thanks to you for nominating the best Thrice track!

We are just over 1000 nominated tracks
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/17NoptslHFIGc6QHyYiikHsYLoLQ6ZKfk6wuzCw6ivwM/edit?usp=sharing

please check that before nominating

I don't suppose I could get away with nominating Autechre?

that would open floodgates that should not be opened imo

NOT EVEN GANTZ GRAF

Everyone forgot Jute Gyte's two most pop (and also best) tracks:

Jute Gyte - The Central Fires of Secret Memory
Jute Gyte - The Hopelessness of Passing Time and the Melancholy of Unalterable Past Events

The first got me into Jute Gyte and remains my very favourite. The second is basically shoegaze.

I promise I will try to fit every nominated JG track on my ballot as penance

:D I may follow suit. Sorry I ruined ur poll etc

Nice catch with the Comets On Fire song btw tt, I even voted for it in the 00s tracks poll but forgot it here

The So So Glos - Diss Town

I've always thought Autechre's Recury would make a great doom metal cover.

hah I think Autechre would be pushing it even by ILM standards.

Autechre themselves would probably be insulted by it..

Ooh, just hit my first bit discovery on this spotify playlist: Trees Of Eternity - this is right up my alley.

Dunno that one must check it out too

1 week to go for noms, I hope nobody forgets to add their fave songs. You will get to vote for up to 100 songs so please nominate!

Anyone got any noms to come? I wonder if 3 weeks was too long

I am -- kind of wondering if the noisy surf rock revival (Raveonettes, Dum Dum Girls, Best Coast) would qualify?

no

pouring one out for Brad rn

Couch Slut - Babylon Sisters

I'll have another gagglr of songs within the hour

Succumb - Destroyer II
Couch Slut - Penalty Scar
Made Out of Babies - Bunny Boots
Yamantaka // Sonic Titan - Out of Time
Myrkur - Dybt I Skoven
