Astronoid RULES

I hope we got enough votes for a top 100. The 100-51 tends to be where I discover new to me things. Will be a pity if good albums are outside of the top 100 though.

would be happy with a top 50 and a slow-paced rollout tbh, give us all time to listen

top 100 is fine too though

The Astronoid is Name yr price: https://blood-music.bandcamp.com/album/air

was there a bandcamp metal list this year?

lol I'm sure there's more than enough fodder for a top 100

Is it too late to change my ballot? I want to write in Lustmord - Dark Matter.

voting closed hours ago

Is that a yes or a no?

I assume when seandalai closed the voting he was starting the tabulation

1 Vektor
2 Oranssi Pazuzu
3 Sumac
4 Jute Gyte
5 Khemmis
6 Sub Rosa
7 Metallica
8 Inter Arma
9 Schammasch
10 Aluk Todolo
11 Darkthrone
12 Furia
13 Hammers of Misfortune
14 Nails
15 Gojira
16 Ulcerate
17 Thy Catafalque
18 Virus
19 Neurosis
20 Hail Spirit Noir

Tough to figure out the last few, as Zao, Cult of Luna/Julie Xmas, The Body, Cobalt, Deftones, Goat, Kvelertak, Gorguts, Asphyx, Moon Tooth and more are possibilities.

Out of curiosity, how is accuracy being judged here? Does order matter?

I would have thought that was the point

guess the order of the top 20 and the closest guess gets the prize

astronoid are basically deafheaven x devin townsend. not sure about the songwriting but the sound is pretty intense

lol I haven't thought of the criteria too hard, probably whoever gets the most slots correct, then accuracy in case of a tiebreaker

1. Vektor

surely its gotta be in order as you said guess the top 20

yeah I might have to get fancy cause these lists are mostly pretty damn similar lol

^ xxp That was my guess, if it wasn't obvious.

Astronoid are just some amazing emo afaict

Moon Tooth sound exactly like I'd expect a Tom pick to sound

I remember how excited he was that time I told him to check out Chiodos

moon tooth is some nifty prog-thrash-pop-sludge hyperactivity

That was Dan who loved Chiodos. Still does.

I'm excited to see people getting behind Moon Tooth, it's really fun. My #1 (spoilers)

no spoilers! (tho im sure everyone guessed anyway)

there's no difference between you and dan (I think dan may have posted once or twice here like a dozen years ago)

I stick by my description of Astronoid as Mew gone death metal

You've just won sund4r over by saying mew

it was inside my top 10 (more spoilers) xxp

now wondering why i didn't put it in my prediction. oh well

mew is def the vocal approach here. astronoid yet to record anything as monstrously kickass as 'rows' on this evidence but i'm reasonably impressed tbh

oi

sorry ;_;

I guess its proof that campaigning/boosting really works. Maybe you could get it into the 77 if you campaign on that thread?

Which reminds me seandalai does the tabulation on that poll too so please go nominate lots of metal from this poll and campaign for it. We got uncle acid in the top 10 one year
ILM's 2016 End of Year Albums & Tracks Poll / NOMINATIONS THREAD

this is going to sound v false & vnkvlt but only my top 5 metal albums are scheduled to be in my 25 ballot positions for the main show this year, sorry everyone. it's just been such a good year all-around

fuuuuck I forgot Hail Spirit Noir on my list. i weep.

this is why RYM exists, folks

i'd love to say "no way do deftones not place in the top 20" but i've never successfully predicted a metal poll. psyched to see deafheaven at no. 1

I feel like maybe I should have campaigned for Skuggsjá, it came out early in the year so now I'm worried it'll be forgotten.

the closest points of comparison i can think of for moon tooth are faith no more and shudder to think. but harder and faster

"what if shudder to think were a metal band" is a question i didn't know i needed answered

I didn't forget Skuggsjá! (At least I don't think so...) I've had the song Skuggeslåtten on repeat all year.

"what if shudder to think were a metal band" is a question i didn't know i needed answered

Haven't got around to listening to the Moon Tooth yet but I am very much interested in the answer to this!

Oathbreaker sound nothing like deafheaven (listening on Spotify) . Presumably people say this because they are on the same record label?

Just been given the results, not even looked at them yet. Anyone still around? I can post a few to get us started/give you something to listen to

DON'T TALK ABOUT

ALL YOU GOTTA DO IS

DO IT

DO IT

Just post up through Moon Tooth (which is #1)

Top 101 like previous years

heh something big was #103 if only their biggest boosters had voted, eh?

does it end in 'llica'?

Bring on the main act!
