... dammit, YI, where's the fun in being snarky about the list if you're going to do it first?

I'll stop it then.

[Turbo Yannis]

My fingers remain crossed for Idlewild to pop up.

I don't imagine they will but since I didn't read anyone else's list, I don't have a clue.

[Summers]

Rob Zombie > YI & Ace.

[The Hardcore Canuck]

Not a fan of any of the bands, minus Rob Zombie. Though I don't like Bad Religion I thought they might be higher. Also Zombie's best album is Hellbilly Deluxe, featuring such songs as Dragula and Living Dead Girl.

BTW, how does the song go that you always hear? I'm just curious to see which one it is.

[GoGo Yubari]

I'll stop it then.

My suggestion, as someone who has watched and mocked the list with interest, is that it's totally cool to mock the results because they're usually very silly, but maybe the mockery should be done in a separate post than the actual result? Like, "AND THIS IS 95 - 91" or whatever in one post and then after that you could do another one with yours and Ace's or whomever's thoughts on them. Or something. Just constructive criticism, is all.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

I cry at the lack of The Clash.

[Chris the Human]

The Postal Service missing out makes me a sad panda. But I didn't vote, so I have nobody to blame but myself <_

[YI]

Because I sodding hate waiting about.

-95-. SUPERGRASS (20pt: 7-3)

-94-. PROTEST THE HERO (20pt: 9-1)

-93-. COLDPLAY (21pt: 4-2-1)

-91-. CLUTCH (22pt: 7-4)

-91-. BLACK SABBATH (22pt: 7-4)

PROTEST THE HERO!!! Supergrass... I haven't listened to them in years.

[GA!]

Supergrass only reached #95?!

[Liam]

Good to see Clutch represented. Would have liked them higher, but its all good.

[Evil Chase K]

Wow for once I'll have more than one of my choices on the list since Clutch made it. Sweet.

[GoGo Yubari]

Sabbath should be, like. Decidedly higher but I don't have any major qualms with this five otherwise. I don't care for Coldplay but a spot in the 90s isn't the end of the world.

[Pesci]

Yay, Fratellis and Kaiser Chiefs. Would've liked to see The Fratellis higher, but whatever. I'll accept joint 99th for Kaiser Chiefs, I'm just shocked they managed to get on at all.

[probablyoliver]

who on earth are Clutch? I'm shocked to see Sabbath and Coldplay so low, altho it doesn't really affect me. I didn't vote, so the likelihood of seeing Pixies, Reuben, Million Dead and yourcodenameis:milo represented are pretty much nil. >_> Maybe we'll see Pixies, and if rockbox, dragsy, benji and liam all voted, maybe we'll see Reuben too.

[Turbo Yannis]

I think I gave some Reuben love aswell.
