I won't dismiss an entire genre based on one terrible song by a band with a stupid name, but it's not looking good.

I'm now reminded out loud why I pretty much abandoned metal in the '90s. It got extreme just for the sake of itself. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I like the Mayhem track quite a bit but didn't vote for it. The Darkthrone I can appreciate for it's significance but is so not my thing.

Okay, are you fucking kidding me? Three QOTSA tracks from the same album w/in seven spaces? Settle on a favorite, people, and then vote THAT ONE up. You're crowding out shit I LIKE.

I know it's only been 8 minutes, but let's get to the next one. We obviously (as a whole) don't care about QOTSA placements. DA.M had a little birthday celebration (yay!), but let's get back to business.

Okay, no offense to Scott or his friend Liz, but this is the 26th greatest metal tune of all time? FUCK, I'M OUT.

it gets more JF friendly, after all theres still about 20 sabbath tracks to come..
― pfunkboy (Herman G. Neuname), Thursday, 5 August 2010 14:46 (thirteen years ago) link
but JF is right, Funeralopolis should be much higher! Shame on you ILM!
― pfunkboy (Herman G. Neuname), Thursday, 5 August 2010 14:47 (thirteen years ago) link
I'm serious, that is HORRIBLE. I'm thinking of all the dozens of songs that were robbed of the opportunity to place at #26 but couldn't because this gobbledygook crowded it out. I think great portions of the electorate here might be slightly retarded.
― Johnelle Fevráe (Johnny Fever), Thursday, 5 August 2010 14:48 (thirteen years ago) link
Well, Liz hadn't joined at that point so don't hold it against her. I like "Funeralopolis" quite a bit but only in the context of the album. I've never played it outside of listening to the whole record.
― EZ Snappin, Thursday, 5 August 2010 14:49 (thirteen years ago) link
this is a brilliant song by a brilliant band.
― pfunkboy (Herman G. Neuname), Thursday, 5 August 2010 14:49 (thirteen years ago) link
^agree. I will stick around, but this is a weird placing.
― Chicago to Philadelphia: "Suck It" (Bill Magill), Thursday, 5 August 2010 14:49 (thirteen years ago) link
there's been hardly anything from the 00s. chill out dudes!
― pfunkboy (Herman G. Neuname), Thursday, 5 August 2010 14:51 (thirteen years ago) link
Quite enjoy the Darkthrone and the Mayhem tracks. Both got a feverish quality about them which I find quite seductive. More blurred, dreamlike stuff please (sorry if that makes me a hipster).
― Chaim Poutine (NickB), Thursday, 5 August 2010 14:51 (thirteen years ago) link

remember, this is ILM voting, not Kerrang, Rolling Stone or Classic Rock voting (though im not sure about the latter actually).You didn't want a same old bands/songs boring canonical list did you?
― pfunkboy (Herman G. Neuname), Thursday, 5 August 2010 14:52 (thirteen years ago) link
so actually four of my votes have made it (Unsung/Children/War Pigs/Avon) and I predict maybe two or three more will make it, but this poll is jampacked with surprises, so you never know...
Birthday wish-list:
-another High on Fire song (not necessarily the song I voted for)-Tourette's-maaaaybe Night Goat by the Melvins (pretty tall order I know)-no G'n'R or AC/DC in the top 5

johnny youre my on thread stats recape dude. tell us how many songs from the 60s,70s,80s,90s,00s we've had so far.
― pfunkboy (Herman G. Neuname), Thursday, 5 August 2010 14:53 (thirteen years ago) link
I don't read Kerrang, Rolling Stone or Classic Rock (is that an actual magazine?), so I'm really not familiar with their canons. I mean, I peeped at them when you posted a link before, but I don't remember anything really. All I know is that we're 75 songs into this thing and there's still no Van Halen, no Scorpions, no Megadeth, and no Anthrax.
