Deez POLLABLE Heroes - THE ILM //METALLICA\\ POLL RESULTS

xxxxxxxxposts holy shit pp i want to stitch that shark-jumping timeline together and share it with the world

constantly jumping the shark, like some 400m hurdle race of shark-jumping

staying true to their roots man

Been scouring around for a copy of " ...And Justice for Jason," and so far ... no dice.

"Of Wolf and Man" was my #1, fuck everybody

Puppets was my number 1 album, though I was torn between that and Lightning so pleased with the winner.

EotB is my only track so far. Someone said upthread that they think it's a weird choice for a single, but I don't think so at all! The 'do you x what I x' hook is so catchy!

But the incredibly tricksy tempo/groove shift between the verses and the chorus might be a bit much for the radio, granted.

Been revisiting (or re-revisiting, if you will) the Justice songs since we started running this poll. It was the first new Metallica record I ever bought, and honestly, the whole thing just ran together. There was the do you do what I do song, the one that started off like the wizard of oz, "one", etc. Funny how a few years later, one of my favorite bands would be Pavement, and I don't know half of their song titles either.

Ha, roger. Feel free to stitch away. The only reason I cut up that timeline was to make it fit ILX formatting. Otherwise, it would've looked like one big skinny thumbnail.

I see Europe is well into its day already. Is lunchtime in the States ok for the next batch, or would earlier or later better accommodate everyone?

Could watch that all day long.

Relistening Puppets, I only now realised how much Battery is the blueprint for the Justice album.

But I can hear bass in "Battery"?

;-)

Q: What's the difference between me watching and posting these, and my dad losing his shit laughing so hard because Lou Piniella stuck Icy Hot in someone's jock?

A: There is no difference.

Clip's pretty good, but I'm just posting this one for the screengrab.

I'd go ahead and start, but since Metallica's from the Bay Area, may as well let them get to work first.

Though they start Monday Night Football in the middle of the damn day, they're probably used to it.

I'D HATE FOR METALLICA TO MISS OUT ON NOS. 20-11 TODAY.

WAKE UP LARS

It's like there's nothing else on youtube but dudes showing up Kirk Hammett.

What if we did these polls as a podcast? How fucking annoying would that be?

"OK, ILX - I Love Music - it's, um, the Metallica poll, so yeah. Um. Thanks for your votes. Um. Here's an 11-minute song from Death Magnetic. Who knew it would chart so high, right?"

All right.

Nice how we got things started with the intro riff to Sandman? Day 2, let's flip the poll over and see what's next.

my favorite MoP deep cut.

man, i don't sing or play guitar, but i can't imagine singing and playing some of those riffs like JH does.

I was at that Bridge show!

A bunch of fans walked out after Brothers in Arms because they didnt know any of the covers. Weiners.

So they missed Disposable! haha sucks to be you

and on Sunday they did Veteran of the Psychic War which was :D :D :D

Used to get deep into CoK, actually me and my friends would sometimes have mammoth sessions of the Call of Cthulhu RPG with it playing on repeat in the background.

Nowadays I find it a bit overlong and clunky in parts. The build-up is still classic though.

i regret not voting for Some Kind of Monster as some kind of peak, it has brought so much joy to my life.

Wow, was 'Kirk's Birthday' cut from the film? So good!

"If some fucker would tell me when I'm supposed to wear a fucking Hawaiian shirt".

"I'm permanently ambushed by this fucking shit with these shirts"

stfu, lars.

I love Bob's "But it's the day after Christmas!"

Call of Ktulu an awesome track. Great extra step of an ending too.

I keep forgetting to repost the Spotify link.

one of the perks of running a poll is seeing how things shake out ahead of time and seeing cool coincidences like this:
