voted 2 because, come on, that's really it.

second time?

For some reason most ILM polls let me vote once before the final 24 hours, then again in the hours preceding the results. Never have been sure if I'm getting to vote twice, or just erasing/changing my previous vote... but it's fun!

maybe you are on a different comp?

i hope the old albums are well represented here since I assume most people only know the reformed line up albums.

bees for me, although i have a weird soft spot for phase 3.

i really am not sure what will win this, but i get a sneaking feeling Bees might.

It'll be 2.

i voted bees

An hour left to vote.

I want to know more about the love for Pentastar, cos I don't get it.

I think it'll be Bees just over 2, with the others trailing. Personally I voted for Phase 3, although all of these are great.

Because Pentastar was awesome, that's why.

earth 2

i love pentastar. most people can't make albums that cool or they would have done it by now. loved that last album too though. more than i thought i would even. at first, i just fell in love with the fancy deluxe vinyl package. turns out it was an album worth the fancy packaging.

The thing with "bees" is that the live versions on the radio earth lp are superior to the studio versions.

8 minutes...

bees will win this

not saying it should, just that it will, and i think by a sgnificant margin

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

Whatever.

Oh shit, I would have voted for Legacy Of Dissolution!

hahahahaaaaaa wow so much for my l33t prediction skills

.. and yay for mine!

Hex deserved better actually.

i ended up voting for Earth 2 -- even though some of the later stuff is more pleasant to listen to, Earth 2 is so monumental and amazing ... Dunno, it'd be like voting against the Grand Canyon or something.

i think i've requested this on every Earth thread ever but if any one has a digitized copy of the VHS that came with either Earth 2 or the first one, I would love to watch again please.

Is this what you are talking about?

that's it! i can't find mine... it is WILD

If you find it I am guessing it is worth $$$. Not on youtube AFAICT.

Never seen it.

only 100 copies? fuck, i wish i could find it....

that's the video that's just, like, old footage of semi-nude women with the music over it?

since i'm apparently letting ILM polls dictate what i post on my blog, I've just upped a 2006 Earth show over yonder: http://doomandgloomfromthetomb.tumblr.com/

i'm glad i wasn't the only person to vote for phase three; that album's really underrated. the opening track alone's
a masterpiece of epic concision: two guitars, three chords, totally majestic.

Hi dere!

^ epic but nothing else on the album comes close.

I like songs.

dang. missed this. would've voted pentastar. frequently use it to zone out and code stuff at work. the head-nodding repetition is key.

probably not what earth intended, but hey.

I personally think it lacks the epic quality of other Earth stuff. To me it sounds like a reasonably conventional rock band instrumental. And definitely the most interesting song on the album.

Did everyone buy the "bible" vinyl of Bees?

Extra Capsular was recorded at Smegma studio and has some Cobain on it. I still like Pentastar best though.

psyched that these dudes are coming to my neck of the woods this fall! never seen them before.

i'm seeing them tonight. first time for me too. the anticipation is setting in in a major way.

Yeah, it is really beautiful. I've only heard it a couple of times but it's a bit different while obviously still being Earth.

I'm writing badly because I don't want to spoil. I guess. Mnerg.

got the latest album yesterday.
bloody hell its good.
the band need to make a full album with rabia.
so, have now ordered, hex (and have it already via the auto rip groove), and angels of darkness pt 2.
this is perfect dark nights music.

latest album hits the ilm metal top 10 and this is the extent of love.

cannot wait to get angels of darkness pt2 (f*ckin' xmas post !) ..

2 options :

full length with the bug.
full length with rabia.

no mix-n-match, one or the other.

angels of darkness pt 2 is okay but i haven't really been down with an earth release since the bees made honey

i got part 2 just to fill the gap in the collection, i realise its not up there with the rest ..

still, a whole album of bug/earth would be fucking insane.

totally agree.

i have written to the label and told them to lock the fellas into a studio until they sort it out.

Surprised by the Big / Earth love. Found that Black Friday release sorta blah
