In honor, I have changed my display name.

so my takeaways re: this poll

1. ppl are way better at disassociating horrible ppl from music they like than I am
2. ppl like Boris
3. ppl LOVE Black Sabbath

Fantastic job Herm. Finished fucking strong!

Head over to ILX HEAVY ROCK/METAL ALBUM POLL STATS BINGE & POST-MORTEM we will roll out stats and you can post your ballots there once we're done with stats

Damn it - knowing that was coming, I should have posted this as #1:

http://www.metalkingdom.net/album/img/d12/12311.jpg

Thanks all, and don't take my grumbling personally. I type with much more venom than I hold in my heart.

can someone please post a recap for posterity?

yeah, don't make a liar out of that thread title

loving the slagging of SGM when in actuality when they want to be they are HARD AS FUCK but yknow you have to actually uh listen to them to know that

Yay for Sabbath. Been an interesting poll, although not so easy to follow as a metal novice as the tracks one.

you are all false lame posers and should be filled with shame

tooo troo

oh, but we are. we most certainly are. u_u

I want Henry's opinion on Caninus

i want the recap!

serious lolz. i'll pass, thanks.

I'll pass until I figure out what SGM stands for.

Schenker group michael

Sodium Glutamate Mono

Shitty Grebo Music?

Vol. 4 wasn't my top choice, but it was up there. People like how they change things up for that one. That, or they really, really love their first power ballad, "Changes." I wonder if they'll come out with a double-deluxe version like the first three albums?

So my top Thin Lizzy pick didn't even make it. Worth checking out - Thin Lizzy - Black Rose: A Rock Legend. Also surprised at no Blackwater Park or Blood Mountain.

that list makes me so goddamn happy

hurrah

ENTIRE RESULTS CAN BE FOUND HERE all 727 albums!

Use menu on the left for other stats, including results for genre by genre (ie the BM list, Doom list,Death,Hair Metal, Heavy metal, False metal and many more)

Pretty damn cool overall.

The proggy side of things definitely got the short end. Not complaining, just think it's interesting. I wonder if partly it's because some are newer from the past few years and don't tend to make the polls yet. Maybe backlash against the popularity of the likes of Opeth and Mastodon? Nachtmystium's last two (not counting their current one, which should be quite popular in the end of year poll) did make it though.

Opeth - Blackwater Park (2001)
Sigh - Imaginary Soundscape (2001)
Enslaved - Isa (2005)
Enslaved - Ruun (2006)
Mastodon - Blood Mountain (2006)
Sigh - Hangman's Hymn: Musikalische Exequien (2007)
Enslaved - Vertebrae (2008)
Gojira - The Way Of All Flesh (2008)
Opeth - Watershed (2008)
Mastodon - Crack The Skye (2009)

where's johnny? Is he looking through all the ballots tabulating the results himself to check they tally?

At some point usually someone will pop in and say they didn't know about this poll so they missed out on voting.
