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

kinda got sick of the 1st 4

btw aldo hang around for #72 at least

man, so many Zepplin songs I only know when I hear them rather than by name

I kind of think you deserve to have your humanity revoked if you dislike "Over the Hills and Far Away"

man, so many Zepplin songs I only know when I hear them rather than by name

^ me too.

Zeppelin makes me speak in riffs.

Houses Of The Holy - horrible cover apart, I'm never quite sure if it's their best or worst album.

setting aside that i think it's their best i don't really know how you can even begin to rationalize thinking it's their worst

I couldn't decide which zep to vote for. 1st 6 are amazing

Im not a big Zep fan, but the version of Over the Hills on that How the West Was Won live set is fucking spectacular. One of the best things i ever heard them do.

you know the thing I keep forgetting about Led Zepplin is the fucking amazing drumming

pfffft you dont like zep but you like stone temple pilots???????

bill false magill

I FUCKING HATE STONE TEMPLE PILOTS!

I like Soundgarden and AIC, the rest of that mileau can go die.

^ one of my votes

ok, that's better. fucking great shit, front to back.

Why it's their worst? 'The Crunge' and 'D'Yer Maker' are silly, 'Dancing Days' isn't all that, 'No Quarter's a dirge, 'The Rain Song' I can hardly hear, and there's only three other songs on it. Arguably.

Sad Wings far, far too low. Like stupidly low. I don't like you all now.

I like No Quarter for some reason. Good song when you're blazing.

No Quarter is one of my fave zep songs!

cheer up EZ Snappin!

Jeez, I was only putting one side of the coin! I could've equally said 'No Quarter's epic, 'The Crunge' funky as get out, 'The Rain Song' the most beautiful thing they ever did, 'Over The Hills' the straight-up best thing they ever did, and who could possibly hate 'The Ocean'?

and over to japan...

2004 btw

Loudness!

one of my votes for one of my very favourite bands. Pity Hevi (vocalist) has left the band.

Is LJ still sulking btw?

Houses of the Holy -> too many songs I don't like (no thx Rain Song or No Quarter) but the mighty trifecta of Over the Hills/Dancing Days/The Ocean keeps it essential for me.

The Art of Self-Defense -> gave this album a HUGE amount of points. Just heard it for the first time last week and while BBW wz one of my favorite albums of the decade, this just blew it away! Serious awesomeness; the first three High on Fire albums should be mandatory for everyone born with ears.

I would've voted for this HoF album, perhaps, had I voted.

Seeing Corrupted was my highlight of last year (apart from seeing Head of David, but being one of my favourites ever so I am biased) I am obviously delighted but I still feel not enough people love them.

Also belated WTF you have got Godflesh and Napalm Death RONG you muppets etc.

I guess this is the place to admit that while I enjoy a bunch of Zeppelin songs (and particularly that great How the West was Won live show album from a few years ago) I find a vast amount of their stuff totally redundant and boring and I think I only voted for Physical Graffiti and couldn't bother voting for any of the other albums.

the next band up dabbled in the avant garde, one of the 1st euro metal bands to do so probably. Influenced so many styles too. This is their first album, but LJ would love their others bar one awful album we pretend never happened.

and I hand you all over to Henry for the next 4 albums, hopefully albums posted at 10 min intervals (reward for lots of posts by you all!!)

and suppertime for me

Never got into Celtic Frost. Probably totally unrelated, but I always lumped them together in my mind with Iced Earth and Hammerfall. Could not explain why (except that Frost + Ice are both cold things).

I have general dislike for Zeppelin, but I like In through the out door, mainly for the song Carouselambra. The rest of their catalogue is very spotty, in my opinion.

xp to Mordy--yeah I think a lot of people think that Zep was a bit repetitive and monochromatic sometimes, and it made listening to all their albums kind of tiresome...I ended up picking two or three (I, III, & IV) and not fuck with most of the rest....

you can be monochromatic when you are painting with the awesomest colors

no doubt, but there's a lot of awesome colors in music. even Monet gets boring

I think Zepplin monochromaticism is wildly overstated, anyway

Oh, I probably voted for them all, except maybe II. I'd've even slung Coda and The Song Remains The Same a couple of points if they'd been nommed. I haven't heard 'How The West Was Won' - why wasn't it nominated?!

I do like a bit of Zep.

Morbid Tales is (I think) my favourite. (awaits someone telling me I gave more points to To Megatherion).

I just said "a bit"!

for the 2nd or 3rd time on these polls it's people with led zep II hate. bizarre.
