~~~ 15 YEARS OF ILM POLL!!! ~~~ (Metal & Heavy Rock [+ related sub-genres] Edition) RESULTS & DISCUSSION THREAD

No chance of going down to 191?

Comets on Fire in my top 10 somewhere. Had hoped to see it creeping into the top 200

maybe later but I dont feel too good just now. Maybe in 30 mins after i have something to eat? I didnt have any lunch today as i got up late after being in plug.dj/ilxors til 6am

i expect you will be pleased at #229?

wtf just happened

I was looking forward to a long rollout

fair enough, à ta santé

I'll have a shower then eat supper then post some more cuz you asked so nicely imago.
That should give some time for everyone to discuss 300-201!

might give that domains album a bash seeing as devilock and dominique think it is great

Was expecting WITTR to poll higher. Or is that just me projecting?

Whatever: I'm amazed Lynx didn't bring out a 'Vastness and Sorrow' range.

the deodorant people? lol

A few from my ballot in this batch:

291 Glaciation - Sur les falaises de marbre 75.47826087 3 0
275 Zu - Carboniferous 79.33333333 4 0
263 Inquisition - Ominous Doctrines of the Perpetual Mystical Macrocosm 82.625 4 0
253 Deathspell Omega - Paracletus 88.625 3 0
251 Ne Obliviscaris - The Aurora Veil 89 3 0
243 Primordial - Redemption At The Puritan's Hand 92.625 3 0
236 Sarpanitum - Blessed Be My Brothers 95.625 3 0
210 Krallice - Years Past Matter 110.625 3 0

All of them being much too low obviously.

I've never been able to figure out the point when the poll changes from being too low to too high

New Bermuda at 254! :D

i voted for 14 of these btw, it doesn't matter

who knew there was 4 people in the world who likes Thumpermonkey

ok lets start the top 200, I had some soup and I've a freshly made pot of Yorkshire Gold.

200 Yob - Atma 115.9 Points, 4 Votes

feel like most of my ballot was covered in 201-300

lots say that, part of the reason I do a long rollout so voters dont feel they are wasting their time.

I've tried my best to encourage more death metal, trad metal etc voters to participate but what else can I do?

I feel that the vast majority of Addicted's 98.625 points were a BradNelson/imago joint effort

what else can I do?
Not dumb shit like this

Kerr I can appreciate your insecurities but this was quite the depressing development. You might as well just dump the whole fucking thing...

I wasnt feeling well! I thought it best to post 300-201 to give ppl something to discuss

199 Darkspace - Dark Space II 116 Points, 4 Votes

tbf we still have 199, sorry 198 albums to discuss, and they're not ALL going to be stoner doom and nu-thrash thank god

this album is ok iirc, i kind of ignored it after III came out

Ok ok Im sorry. I didnt know you were sick. I figured you got really anxious bcz imago was the only one posting and he was making fun of the long rollout. Its just now theres a bunch of my albums that might as well not have made it

Though I think posting them all at once us a surefire of inhibiting most discussion

:( they did make it though! But with me not feeling well and starting so late the longer rollout wouldnt have finished on friday. I thought it was for the best

I promise longer rollouts in future!

Great last track on that Yob album.

Holy shit, Years Past Matter only made #210? That was my #2! I played the shit out of it while temping that year.

XP: Well Im not trying to bust your chops about being sick. But Im not honna try to force conversation about Valonielu or Tad Times Xpress either.

Glad you dig the Comets on Fire album too, tt

sund4r: I am definitely sooner or later gonna push towards getting into Krallice

Major push, I mean. Totally Krallic-ing out.

i chucked Years Past Matter a load of points. and Valonielu! (altho their new album is better)

yeah Krallice's placement is nuts

one thing that concerns me is that there was a maximum ballot of 100, but there are albums with less than 100 points with a first place vote. so how many points does first place get?

Unweighted ballot?

seandalai would need to answer that

but most likely an unweighted ballot

xp

Which one, Kayo Dot?

Unweighted shouldnt have a #1

The whole shit is rigged

you can have an unweighted ballot AND a first place? lol

oh yeah what DAM said

198 Liturgy - The Ark Work 116.75 Points, 4 Votes

my #13

it's a gestamkunstwerk, y'know

Totally misread the band name on the Yob album cover

Which one, Kayo Dot?

Happened with Blut Aus Nord: 95 points but a #1 vote. Are #1 votes on mixed ballots (or ballots with <100 albums) counted for less than #1 votes on unmixed ballots?

I dont know

I'm pretty sure Liturgy was my number #13 too! I still can't get on board with Darkspace though.

197 Zombi - Spirit Animal 117.3333333 Points, 4 Votes

I'm sorry I came down so hard, Kerr. It will in fact be that much cooler if any of my fringe-psych or noise nominations crack the Top 200.
