I thought Children Of The Grave would be higher, they basically invented stoner metal over the course of 5 minutes in that song.

And Funkadelic basically invented funk metal with that song, for better or worse (worse really).

Have you heard that song?

Yes, but still.

The Forces of light tried to quell these results but I have emerged victorious and stronger for the battle.

Also I ate some ice cubes and they were delicious.

I mostly like Danzig because he likes doggies also you can tell that he was the runt of his litter so it is inspiring to see him try so hard.

Henry Kvlt Pvp, Tuesday, 3 August 2010 19:02 (thirteen years ago) link

I have voted for a grand total of one in this poll so far. But then, I don't think I voted for any *actual* metal.

emil.y, Tuesday, 3 August 2010 19:04 (thirteen years ago) link

Oh man would have liked to see refuse/resist higher, fucking love that song. Good to be reminded of Angel Witch, a song I completely love but never listen to because uh i dont know im stupid i guess.

Sorry dudes, Henry is kind of a hardliner. A while ago he asked to get a tattoo of the Kill Em All album cover and when I said he was too young he waited until I was out of the room and pooped in my Zeppelin box set.

CHEESECAKE VOTING FRUIT HATING SCUM (jjjusten), Tuesday, 3 August 2010 19:25 (thirteen years ago) link

Does Metallica ever cover classic literature anymore? I'm not familiar with the new stuff, but I can credit them for inspiring me to pick up Johnny Got His Gun, Ernest Hemingway, the Bible, and H.P. Lovecraft. The video with all the movie clips in it is great.

This was my favorite Metallica song when I was 10. I probably related to it because it was so melancholy. I love the clean solo that Kirk does in the intro. I think it drags a bit in the main body of the song; it didn't bother me then, but listening with 2010 ears I think Hetfield's singing here may be one of the earliest direct antecedents to Nickelback. The end is a blast though. Duga-dah-duga-dah-DUN! Duga-dah-duga-dah-DUN!

Children of the Grave was my #1. Black Sabbath as Bob Dylan.

it is amazing how... SMOOTH and unaggressive "One" sounds now

okay maybe not "unaggressive" but you know what I mean

why is everything suddenly from 1998

I mean if that's what's going on I want to resubmit Atari Teenage Riot for consideration

I just went and looked at my ballot and One was #6 on my list. I didn't even remember that I voted for it. LOL @ hasty shuffling.

kkvgz, Tuesday, 3 August 2010 19:56 (thirteen years ago) link

Henry is being inconsolable and working his outrage for treats at the moment but I think I can get him back on in a sec.

I can only assume that on a vigorous day of altruism Bob Barker showed up at the practice room and personally spayed and neutered this band.

Henry Kvlt Pvp, Tuesday, 3 August 2010 20:03 (thirteen years ago) link

lol

Henry is going to get the massive gasface from my wife should his views on Boston ever be related to her

Mayor Hickenlooper and the liberal agenda (HI DERE), Tuesday, 3 August 2010 20:04 (thirteen years ago) link

wait, the city or the band?

CHEESECAKE VOTING FRUIT HATING SCUM (jjjusten), Tuesday, 3 August 2010 20:10 (thirteen years ago) link

The band, duh

Henry hating on Boston would make her give him full body hugs, regardless of the inevitable hives that would result

Mayor Hickenlooper and the liberal agenda (HI DERE), Tuesday, 3 August 2010 20:15 (thirteen years ago) link

what the hell is this monster magnet song. man, this popist attitude pervades ALL ASPECTS OF ILM! it's crazy.

basically, i am frustrated because THIS LIST NEEDS MORE BLACK METAL.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vn_j9T_DD4k

This brings back memories of how great this band once was. But then Paul Di'Anno left and they replaced him with this soft jumping and prancing man with a voice like a dog whistle. Also that dog that they keep showing in the video? I could kick that stupid crap dogs ass.

Henry Kvlt Pvp, Tuesday, 3 August 2010 20:21 (thirteen years ago) link

i guess i keep forgetting that it's the "top hardrock/metal songs," and not the "heaviest songs."

marc iv, Tuesday, 3 August 2010 20:22 (thirteen years ago) link

I've never actually heard this song and basically I do kind of need to go back and get like every old Iron Maiden album

Mayor Hickenlooper and the liberal agenda (HI DERE), Tuesday, 3 August 2010 20:23 (thirteen years ago) link

OK, I'm handing the reins of this crapwagon back over to that other guy. My dumb owner says I get to go to a place called "the vet" where he says they give away free steaks and car rides.

I will return tomorrow. Until then just remember, you are all false and weak.

Henry Kvlt Pvp, Tuesday, 3 August 2010 20:24 (thirteen years ago) link

You definitely do. You will not be disappointed. This song is just the tip of one hell of a great iceberg.

I loved Powerslave to death back in the day but never really explored anything else they did.

Mayor Hickenlooper and the liberal agenda (HI DERE), Tuesday, 3 August 2010 20:25 (thirteen years ago) link

Oh no Number of the Beast is placing terribly low. That was in my top 10 I think.

It's strange, the dog in the first picture looks so nice. Completely at odds with this attitude that's on display.

yessssssssssssssssss

I sang this song this weekend at a Rock Band 2 party at my SIL's house, it was awesome

Mayor Hickenlooper and the liberal agenda (HI DERE), Tuesday, 3 August 2010 20:41 (thirteen years ago) link

tis a great song by a great band.

pfunkboy (Herman G. Neuname), Tuesday, 3 August 2010 20:42 (thirteen years ago) link

I have to say, although as a rule I care little for either metal or dogs, I LOVE YOU HENRY.

emil.y, Tuesday, 3 August 2010 20:43 (thirteen years ago) link

I love both metal and dogs, and I think Henry's kind of a pain in the ass. Maybe his vet will be prescribing a "mood enhancer" that will save us readers from such invective.

Chicago to Philadelphia: "Suck It" (Bill Magill), Tuesday, 3 August 2010 20:46 (thirteen years ago) link

That Janes Addiction song better than Number of the Beast? Really??
