[no country for old wainds]

finally, took you long enough

I have to commend TB for not taking a month to tally up results and keep these things rolling. It's how it should be so people don't lose interest.

Yeah, plus i already tagged a bunch of people a few pages back so i'm not about to sit here and beg people to participate.

This is his first one. Old Wainds and I were similarly enthusiastic and punctual to begin with! We shall see if it lasts.

TechBarb clearly has a lot of mental illnesses, but being a depressed faggot isn't one of them.

 

[Phylactery]

Who are you accusing of being depressed? As if that was ever the reason for being late with the results.

dont mind him. He's just once again showcasing his retardation, nothing new. We all know you were just having trouble adding up dem numberz.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

"similarly enthusiastic and punctual to begin with" sounds like some kind of bipolar shit to me. Everything new and exciting at first. Travel the world. Have casual sex with many attractive strangers. Create a new U-M game thread. But it always gets old and you're left feeling empty at the end of it all.

I'll have you know that my parents regularly left plastic bags and toys with small parts in my bedroom from the age of 2. They were so proud of my self-control even as an infant that it'd bring tears to their eyes.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

oh i don't for one second doubt that you brought tears to their eyes.

 

[CiG]

And a similarly salty substance to his daddy's penis.

Don't you abos have like a 50% child molestation rate or something?

 

[CiG]

Probably, I'd have to look it up.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

i'd be shedding tears all day too if i had a son like HBB. Poor man, and he has such good taste in music too.

[The Ozzman]

7. Van Halen - Women and Children First

Not metal

 

[HamburgerBoy]

It has a couple metal songs iirc

EDIT:

Tora! Tora!/Loss of Control - 4/5 (first part is pretty much a doom metal intro, the second is uber fast and tight flashy metallic stuff)
In A Simple Rhyme - 3.5/5
Take Your Whiskey Home - 3.5/5 (lots of groove and a bit more blues than usual)
Could This Be Magic? - 3.5/5 (catchy acoustic blues song)
Everybody Wants Some!! - 3.5/5 (lots of drive, a bit of a surf-rock feel in the chorus)
Romeo Delight - 3.5/5 (metallic riffage, melodic bridge)
Fools - 2.5/5
And the Cradle Will Rock... - 2/5 (boring)

 

[Sirjack]

very metal especially in 1980. Heavy Metal power from Rock and Roll
crushing tone, metal riffs fills and a shred as fuck solo...not metal?

you guys can list any album you want, if others dont think its not metal/metal enough it wont get enough votes to get in.

Serious question, is Back in Black allowed here?

I personally don't think its metal but you can list it if you want.

ACDC have been included in many of the GNMD Poll rounds, so no I don't think so.

but were ranking albums here not bands

 

[CiG]

I don't think ACDC released a single metal album, so in this case it's a distinction without a difference but I agree with this anyway:

if others dont think its not metal/metal enough it wont get enough votes to get in
