Hey Henry, you think this polls #1 will get in the big poll that's currently running?

Algerian Goalkeeper, Thursday, 2 December 2010 20:48 (thirteen years ago) link

I bet markers has fixed it so enter sandman will win it

Algerian Goalkeeper, Thursday, 2 December 2010 20:50 (thirteen years ago) link

i genuinely thought when i first joined that he was the admin (ilxor), Thursday, 2 December 2010 21:59 (thirteen years ago) link

i completely ignored that other poll so oops

O_o-O_0-o_O (jjjusten), Thursday, 2 December 2010 22:16 (thirteen years ago) link

I didn't get round to it either. Not that my votes would've made much difference.

Algerian Goalkeeper, Thursday, 2 December 2010 22:23 (thirteen years ago) link

Any metal songs in that poll yet btw? I've not really looked at it until today.

Algerian Goalkeeper, Thursday, 2 December 2010 22:54 (thirteen years ago) link

ok i would have def boosted ace of spades up a shit ton of places alone

O_o-O_0-o_O (jjjusten), Thursday, 2 December 2010 22:59 (thirteen years ago) link

is that the only one in it? none in the top 100 at all? I guess my vote wouldn't have made a difference then. Surely sabbath will make it. and maiden and i suppose gnr

Algerian Goalkeeper, Thursday, 2 December 2010 23:07 (thirteen years ago) link

I had never heard of "Stargazer" before this poll, and now it's just about my favorite song ever.

Let's do our 2010s POXes

imago, Thursday, 8 February 2018 21:11 (six years ago) link

(inspired by listening once again to Blut Aus Nord's 'Epitome XIV' and thinking to myself 'it doesn't matter what else this guy does, he basically wrote the best metal track of the last ten years')

imago, Thursday, 8 February 2018 21:14 (six years ago) link

rip henry :(

Algerian Goalkeeper (Odysseus), Thursday, 8 February 2018 21:14 (six years ago) link

ah yeah that too :(

imago, Thursday, 8 February 2018 21:15 (six years ago) link

tentative MMX POX(I)

Oranssi Pazuzu - Vasemman Käden Hierarkia
Blut Aus Nord - Epitome XIV
Jute Gyte - I Am In Athens And Pericles Is Young
Liturgy - Follow II
Menace Ruine - Venus Armata
Mesarthim - The Great Filter
Thantifaxath - Gasping In Darkness
Virus - Afield
Cleric - Triskaidekaphobe
Mastery - V.A.L.I.S.V.E.S.S.E.L.
Basarabian Hills - Morning Hoarfrost

couldn't bring myself to cut poor BH from this. besides, the Virus isn't really metal. look I put a big line through it

imago, Saturday, 10 February 2018 00:39 (six years ago) link

It's been too long since the last Menace Ruine album.

Dinsdale, Saturday, 10 February 2018 12:22 (six years ago) link

yes it has

now your tracks POX please

in the cold light of day, including BH was overly sentimental and Virus can consider themselves restored

imago, Saturday, 10 February 2018 12:25 (six years ago) link

Glaciation - Les fiancées sont froides
Primordial - The Mouth of Judas
Yob - that one track at the end of one of their albums
Yakuza - a long one with sax

I don't pay enough attention to tracks for this exercise

Dinsdale, Saturday, 10 February 2018 13:13 (six years ago) link

Oh I like that Glaciation track!

imago, Saturday, 10 February 2018 21:58 (six years ago) link

I've made a playlist out of my top ten tracks. It is 2h 10m long ffs

imago, Saturday, 10 February 2018 22:11 (six years ago) link

That's like TWO Dopesmokers

imago, Saturday, 10 February 2018 22:12 (six years ago) link

was that Glaciation track from the album i championed strongly and won loads of voters over with it?

Algerian Goalkeeper (Odysseus), Saturday, 10 February 2018 22:19 (six years ago) link

AFAICT no one compiled the original list into a Spotify playlist so here you go

Whoops, just made it public

I don't remember anyone other than me championing this album but kudos to you if you did!

Dinsdale, Saturday, 10 February 2018 23:08 (six years ago) link

the album even made this rollout

Algerian Goalkeeper (Odysseus), Saturday, 10 February 2018 23:09 (six years ago) link

TOO LOW!

Dinsdale, Saturday, 10 February 2018 23:15 (six years ago) link

Doing this was a headache:

Deathspell Omega - Devouring Famine
Krallice - Telluric Rings
Torche - Kicking
Gris - Igneus
Spectral Lore - The Cold March Towards Eternal Brightness
Dispirit - Odyllic Void
Vektor - Recharging the Void
Yellow Eyes - Light has Fallen
Gorguts - Pleides' Dust
Pyramids - Consilience

obnoxious pun (ultros ultros-ghali), Sunday, 11 February 2018 16:53 (six years ago) link

It could be worse, they could have all been Krallice.

obnoxious pun (ultros ultros-ghali), Sunday, 11 February 2018 16:58 (six years ago) link

Did we not do a tracks version of lifetime of ILM metal poll?

Algerian Goalkeeper (Odysseus), Sunday, 11 February 2018 17:10 (six years ago) link

If simon and seandalai are up for it then I'd be up for it

Algerian Goalkeeper (Odysseus), Sunday, 11 February 2018 17:11 (six years ago) link

I don't think there's that much enthusiasm for that unfortunately. I usually find it hard to pick out/remember individual tracks personally, probably a result of listening to too much album-based introverted prog gubbins. I'd be interested in what someone with a more populist taste in metal could come up with, there's got to be some bangers from the last few years.

obnoxious pun (ultros ultros-ghali), Sunday, 11 February 2018 17:18 (six years ago) link

I made my ten into a Spotify playlist, if anyone's interested. Looking forward to all of yours! :D

Will check out ultros' in painstaking non-playlisted fashion though

imago, Sunday, 11 February 2018 18:28 (six years ago) link

Ha, mine's very dissatisfactory to me but I tried to get an even-ish spread of years. It's basically all long bm tracks and a power-pop song in sludge clothing. Will check out the things on yours I haven't heard but the rest already has my approval, mostly.

obnoxious pun (ultros ultros-ghali), Sunday, 11 February 2018 18:51 (six years ago) link

fyi The Black Stone juuuust missed the cut. Kayo Dot would definitely be in a post-2000 POX! ___on limpid form, obv

imago, Sunday, 11 February 2018 19:01 (six years ago) link

well, we could have a month long noms period where we listen to things we like and then nominate the tracks we like best.

Perhaps we could allow a sort of unlimited nominations in that we can nominate as much as we want BUT each person can only nominate 1 song per album. If you ask others to nominate another thats fine though, lol

put it all on spotify then have a month long voting period to allow listening to tracks . The longer period i think would benefit a tracks poll unlike albums.

Maybe forks would help out with spotify as he's really good with that?

Algerian Goalkeeper (Odysseus), Sunday, 11 February 2018 19:39 (six years ago) link

I don't think it should be a poll, I think it should be in a shared playlist format

imago, Sunday, 11 February 2018 19:42 (six years ago) link

If something isn't on Spotify then the playlists could be made in Garageband and uploaded to Sendspace or w/e

imago, Sunday, 11 February 2018 19:43 (six years ago) link

omg Basarabian Hills are adorable

obnoxious pun (ultros ultros-ghali), Monday, 12 February 2018 20:16 (six years ago) link

ikr! :3

imago, Monday, 12 February 2018 20:31 (six years ago) link

The guy's protests when they wouldn't let him onto one of those big awful metal databases were about as endearing as you'd hope

imago, Monday, 12 February 2018 20:32 (six years ago) link

lol yeah I found them when I looked him up. metal-archives is a very good resource in many ways but what they allow on the site or not is quite petty. Lustre counts but BH doesn't?

This guy's stuff is quite low in content but it's so warm and calming that I don't mind
