it is obviously a huge step up from qliphoth which i thought was incredible

I preferred qliphoth for its greater ratio of dreamy moments, but still think Pollinator is brilliant.

Much as I adore the PUP and Microwave albums, I cannot vote for them in good conscience in this poll.

Oor Neechy / pomenitul - very sorry - I re-submitted - Imprecation and Xoth had just been getting so many spins lately, I couldn't NOT re-submit! Hope that's cool.

Lol Brad I fuckin love oozing wound and almost listed them upthread

Sadly there's a lot less interest in the poll now.

xp

Oor Neechy, Friday, 21 February 2020 22:34 (four years ago) link

Not that surprising considering how heavy and/or dark music did in the main polls. I expect Lingua Ignota and Liturgy to do well. I'm fine with the smaller number, though in a way I think the sheer amount of nominations dilutes the end result a little bit.

Submitted my weighted ballot of 50! It's not the most perfect order, but it will do. This poll always makes me wonder why I'm not listening to metal constantly.

tangenttangent, Friday, 21 February 2020 23:18 (four years ago) link

tt has gotten 90 down to 50. I have gotten 16 up to 21 with some last-minute scrambling. A couple of things have been given a lot of points based on a very brief impression. Let's hope the whole Ifernach and Akasha records are as kickass as my brief impressions make them out to be...

imago, Friday, 21 February 2020 23:21 (four years ago) link

Lingua might just top this sucker.

bold caucasian eroticism (Simon H.), Friday, 21 February 2020 23:47 (four years ago) link

yes, and i reckon my top 5 will all make the top 10

imago, Saturday, 22 February 2020 00:06 (four years ago) link

Anyone else planning to vote?

As long at the voting form is open you can still vote. I think seandalai will post here when he's closing it so post in here if you intend to vote.

You will have another 8 or 9 hours to vote for sure.

Oor Neechy, Saturday, 22 February 2020 00:07 (four years ago) link

Still working out my ballot, thanks!

Just finished Ausmuteants--instantly a total classic--and now listening to Car Bomb, which is a bit more traditional than I'd hoped but there seems to be a lot of interesting passages for one to trip over :D

I think it will be a shame if nobody else has voted for the best Boris album in a decade.

Oor Neechy, Saturday, 22 February 2020 00:54 (four years ago) link

Voted but my ballot was slim. Metal just wasn't my focus last year.

With considerable charm, you still have made a choice (Sund4r), Saturday, 22 February 2020 00:57 (four years ago) link

Seems to be a common theme this/these past year(s) :(

Oor Neechy, Saturday, 22 February 2020 01:02 (four years ago) link

I will def vote for that Boris album

hooper (Drugs A. Money), Saturday, 22 February 2020 01:05 (four years ago) link

Finding seven albums I thoroughly enjoy in one genre in one year doesn't seem that bad to me, honestly.

With considerable charm, you still have made a choice (Sund4r), Saturday, 22 February 2020 01:06 (four years ago) link

fell asleep, looks like i’m gonna miss the deadline oh well

american bradass (BradNelson), Saturday, 22 February 2020 07:58 (four years ago) link

Deadline still not quite here! Hope you managed to scrape together a ballot of your favourites

tangenttangent, Saturday, 22 February 2020 09:51 (four years ago) link

It's not over 'till seandalai says it's over.

romanesque architect (pomenitul), Saturday, 22 February 2020 11:06 (four years ago) link

Hey seandalai give me a 5 minute warning plz🙏, my ballot is about half-dozen in another window

hooper (Drugs A. Money), Saturday, 22 February 2020 11:33 (four years ago) link

Godspeed!

romanesque architect (pomenitul), Saturday, 22 February 2020 11:35 (four years ago) link

Ok voted

hooper (Drugs A. Money), Saturday, 22 February 2020 12:14 (four years ago) link

romanesque architect (pomenitul), Saturday, 22 February 2020 13:10 (four years ago) link

american bradass (BradNelson), Saturday, 22 February 2020 14:51 (four years ago) link

romanesque architect (pomenitul), Saturday, 22 February 2020 14:56 (four years ago) link

Until seandalai says so the voting is open

Oor Neechy, Saturday, 22 February 2020 16:04 (four years ago) link

the disentomb record is all i ever want out of metal

american bradass (BradNelson), Saturday, 22 February 2020 16:18 (four years ago) link

i've said that before but it was worth saying again

american bradass (BradNelson), Saturday, 22 February 2020 16:18 (four years ago) link

Voting still open if anyone wants to avoid the "oh I didn't know this poll was happening" dog latin type post

Oor Neechy, Saturday, 22 February 2020 17:12 (four years ago) link

VOTING IS CLOSED.

We might start shortly with the traditional weekend bonus.
