YOU TOTALLY MISSED THE ILX HEAVY ROCK/METAL ALBUM POLL COUNTDOWN, SUCKA (CLICK FOR A RECAP)

ugh stp

you know, everyone picks STP as THE grunge band to hate but they were actually kind of great; I don't know that they had a bad single

i like all the big Seattle grunge bands to some extent, but Soundgarden is the only one I voted for here, because they pretty much are for all intents and purposes metal, more than any of the others except maybe AIC

I'd agree with that, too

STP were only vaguely grunge for one album. They were lumped in for marketing convenience -- early 90s west coast hard rock = grunge.

you mean the fact they sounded like an amalgam of PJ and AIC was just marketing convenience?

"Evenflow" is a great song btw, fuiud

PJ is only vaguely grunge as well. Both they and STP are pretty much Zeppelin, though PJ veers Hendrix. Classic rock-o-rama all the same.

Never liked Soundgarden, but "Jesus Christ Pose" is one of my fave songs. Def. more metal than those other bands.

the 1st soundgarden album is grrrrrrrrrreat and i warmed to loud love(half of it is brilliant) the weakest one is down on the upside,and its still a decent album.

opening track is str8 fire

what is "fuiud"?

"fuck u if u disagree"

you mean the fact they sounded like an amalgam of PJ and AIC was just marketing convenience?

One album dude. And it still was better than Pearl Jam.

fuds say it

xp

Will there be an appearance of Naked City and/or Painkiller? Or have those bands been forgotten?

glad we have grunge because i dont know what ninth grade wouldve been like without puddle of mudd

I don't remember if any of Zorn's jazzgrind was nominated. Comes from a different tradition even if the results were comparable so I'm not sure they fit the continuum this poll was aiming for.

That's the unstated subtitle of the board, right?

no spotify due to it only having that version the evil sharon is responsible.
now everyone say
FUCK SHARON OSBOURNE : JUSTICE FOR THE BLIZZARD OF OZ 2!

yeah man, believe me i dont blame grunge for puddle of mudd

then again, i actually like some puddle of mudd singles

you know, everyone picks STP as THE grunge band to hate but they were actually kind of great; I don't know that they had a bad single

STP are secretly so much better than Soundgarden it's not even funny.

then again, i actually like some puddle of mudd singles

O_O

CAN YOU TAKE IT AAALLL AAWAAAAAAYYY
CANN YOU TAKE IT AAALLLL AAAWWAAAAAYYYYY

WEELLL YOU SHOOOVEDD IT IN MY FAAAAAAAAACCCCEEE

Where's Bill? I know he will join in. Him & shakey mo know the score.

also LOL @ markers

Puddle of Mudd sucks. Sukks?

Remastered Ozzy with original rhythm section restored - "Blizzard" and "Madman" - is returning in a few weeks.

Yeah, this only counts with the original rythm guys. If its the new version it is number 939,308,382,425 on my list.

Nirvana
Melvins
Soundgarden
Alice in Chains
Screaming Trees
Pearl Jam
Mudhoney

the bad STP sinigle ur looking for Dan is called Sex Type Thing...

(STP's fourth album is a great album, though, that I forgot to vote for (among other things like Houdini))

STP are secretly so much better than Soundgarden it's not even funny.

This statement is not funny; it's quite unfortunate actually.

Screaming Trees
Soundgarden
Mudhoney
Melvins
Nirvana
Alice in Chains
Pearl Jam

STP would slot in = Melvins

I CANT CONTROL YOU YOURE NOT THE ONE FOR ME NO

I have STP in between Alice in Chains & Screaming Trees (but I have a lot more to learn about the Trees)

Sharon may be a harpy-shrew, but if not for her that Ozzy album may never have existed in the first place.

I'm not a big solo Ozzy guy. Hell, to be honest, if Ozzy fell off the earth in 1976 I'd have been fine with it.

I didn't vote for Dirt but I remember really loving all of the singles--actually the other songs are really good too. I listened to it again a couple months ago, and was shocked to find I liked it even more.

I did vote for Bullhead, placed it pretty high iirc. That's a great album, tons off great songs: Anaconda, Zodiac, It's Shoved, the awesome way that If I Had an Exorcism ends, and Cow begins, BORIS of course. It does sound a little thin, and could use a remastered edition, but everything on it is top-flight sludge.

Also: Hating Nevermind is about the most boring thing you could do on this thread (unless your name starts with an H and you rant against false steak at the vet). Shouldn't be in the top 50 priolley but 97 is too low (as is Ace of Spades @ 99 & Sabotage @ 100)

Sharon may be a harpy-shrew, but if not for her that Ozzy album may never have existed in the first place.

Which would not be a massive loss for humanity.

wish list:

-two more High on Fire albums (Art of Self Defense & Blessed Black Wings to be precise)
-Melvins' Stag
-Boris's Flood
-Monster Magnet's Tab
-Down's NOLA
-Corrosion of Conformity's Blind
-Stooges' Fun House at #1

I don't hate Nevermind, in fact it's probably a fine album. I know most of the tunes/melodies by heart. I also haven't heard it since, oh, freshman year of college, and I've no desire to hear it again anytime soon.

xxp

-Boris's Flood

Unfortunately this will not happen. :(

i dont think anyone blames you for not wanting to listen to nevermind

xp don't dash my dreams!!!

Hating Nevermind is about the most boring thing you could do on this thread

^to quote a song on Sabotage, which Nevermind somehow beat, it may be boring but "that's my story and Im sticking to it"

I don't hate Nevermind by any means, I just think it's the least interesting Nirvana album.

I could see either of the two Masters (Puppets, Reality) at #1. You heard it here first.

^xp this I can accept...

hey Bill did you vote for NOLA???

Angel Dust much lower than I thought it would be! Not REALLY that metal, but otoh Jizzlobber is heavy as all fuck

I don't think we're going to see the Mr Bungle s/t here, which is a shame, because My Ass Is On Fire is one of the best metal songs I know

I do need to listen to more Faith No More, of this I am convinced...
