~~~ 15 YEARS OF ILM POLL!!! ~~~ (Metal & Heavy Rock [+ related sub-genres] Edition) VOTING & DISCUSSION THREAD. ALL ILXORS WELCOME TO PARTICPATE!! Voting Ends 11.59pm UK Time September 9 2016 .

has anyone voted yet? If so please say here so seandalai can check

Gavin: Drudkh "Autumn Aurora", Hate Forest "Purity", Nyktalgia s/t, Abyssic Hate "Suicidal Emotions", Antaeus "Cut Your Flesh And Worship Satan".

Also, Megiddo "The Devil And The Whore".

Thanks Siegbran, will check those out.

I've already voted but I'm not the most adequate voter for this poll. Still there's some weird things:

* Limp Bizkit on the nominees and no Deftones? Wouldn't vote for either but still...
* Marnie Stern is in there too which is weird as it doesn't fit anything else I think? Still I voted for it because why not?
* No Om... Pilgrimage, conference of the birds, variations on a theme... they're stoner metal but they're still metal no?
* Other artists besides Om I would've voted for but weren't on the list: Mastery, Ehnahre, Chthe'ilist, Khanate

I can add them. Om and Khanate should be on there, yes

added to spreadsheet but will need to wait for seandalai to add to pastebin.

ps pretty sure limp bizkit was troll nominated along with disturbed etc. Why? check a certain persons post upthread

Use this just now until pastebin is updated

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/104IXKSHN1uWxe3MRFy4R5tHEOxLriKoBRKcjCNu_zus/edit#gid=1956354072

if there's any doubles please let me know

oh and the deftones were added the other day BUT again pastebin wasnt updated as i cant do that.

I can repost all the noms here though if anyone cant access googledocs at work or whatever

There's a poster who hated nominations constantly being posted as it mucked up searches so If a mod could instead update my OP with the full noms or even just remove them and add the google docs link along with the pastebin link in its place that would be tremendously helpful but I dont know if any mod will do that as they dont like me and jjj doesnt seem to be around to help :(

Chthe'ilist

would vote, but their debut LP is excluded on grounds of being a 2016 release, and alls they've got prior is a 3-track ep

demo ep, i meant to say

om's first three definitely oughtta be on there tho

they are on the googledocs list

Put in a Mod request

* Marnie Stern is in there too which is weird as it doesn't fit anything else I think? Still I voted for it because why not?

Moka

She made a previous EOY poll and since the likes of Zombi and non-metal Ulver are on it why not indeed.

I did fix the darkspace so all 4 are listed as intended but i have no access to pastebin so the fixes and added nominations wont appear on it until seandalai fixes it.

Thanks! Urging everyone to vote for and/or check out the all the Stargazer records, particularly if left-of-center death metal is your thing. Other weird/underground metal to check out:

Domains - Spanish OSDM; queasy, downward spiraling chords and great songs
Khthoniik Cerviiks - from 2015, for those who liked the new Cadaveric Fumes or Wakedead Gathering records (or above Domains)
Morko - Finnish black metal that is pretty all over the place. Great musicians, thankfully not too Catholic about the genre (related to fellow Fins Jumalhamara)
Murmuure - ambient/sound collage black metal. One of a kind record, and I think the only thing he did
Cadaver Inc - black/death/thrash hybrid for fans of Dodheimsgard and Aura Noir

love that domains lp

while we're listing stuff that won't get many votes:

Furze - UTD: Beneath the Odd-Edge Sounds of the Twilight Contract of the Black Fascist / The Wealth of the Penetration in the Abstract Paradigms of Satan
Merrimack - Of Entropy and Life Denial
Stara Rzeka - Cień Chmury Nad Ukrytym Polem
Hordes of the Lunar Eclipse - Dancing Demons in the Grey-Lit Glade
Wyrd - Heathen
Wyrd - Huldrafolk
Vreid - I Krig
Vreid - V

The Murmuure is amazing. I have it on CD. I somehow missed the vinyl being issued at some point and now its about 200 euros to buy

and the weakling LP is even more so again I make do with my cd

but those 2 should be checked out.

Everyone should have a wee read at

Previous Metal Poll EOY Results Thread

If anything there is missing fron the nominations tell me here and I will add to the google docs.
Adding the Harvey Milk just now!

btw a kindly mod has added the googledocs link top of thread.

going to have to redo my shortlist as I forgot Yob. Now added to the google docs

Khthoniik Cerviiks - SeroLogiikal Scars (Vertex of Dementiia)
Stargazer - The Scream That Tore the Sky
Stargazer - A Great Work of Ages
Stargazer - A Merging to the Boundless

Yeah a lack of Yob would be surprising as they did well in the all-time metal poll (xpost).

christ almighty nobody nominated carcass - surgical steel

I also added turisas for jeff even though he couldnt be arsed nominating

I strongly suggest all of you look through Previous Metal Poll EOY Results Thread

so we can add what was missed

Added!

if the goal is simply to include every album anyone might possibly vote for, then why not treat the internet as the nominations list, and just let people put whatever they want on their ballots?

meanwhile...

Conan - Monnos
Conan - Blood Eagle

Circle - Sunrise
Circle - Tulikoira

because the spellings have to be correct otherwise seandalai's software wont pick it up properly. He's doing us a great favour doing the poll tabulating and I want to make it as easy as possible for him.

plus everyone needs a list to look through otherwise they forget to vote for stuff. The fact we are still taking nominations now is proof!!!

makes sense

Hammers of Misfortune - The August Engine
Hammers of Misfortune - The Locust Years

High Spirits - High Spirits
High Spirits - Another Night

It's so hard deciding which Yob and Harvey Milk albums are the best. I could easily vote for them all. I may end up doing so.
