Time for me to finally listen to the Metallica playlist I made! Here's the playlist I was referring to, if anyone wants to listen. Was thinking of organizing a Metallica rankdown, but I don't know when I'll start it. But I figured this playlist could help in your top 10s list.

sent, listened to every album like i plan to do with all of these. if anyone's curious, here was how i rated the albums Kill 'Em All: 4/5 Ride the Lightning: 4.5/5 Master of Puppets: 4.5/5 ...And Justice for All: 3.5/5 Metallica: 3.5/5 Load: 3/5 Reload: 2.5/5 St. Anger: 1/5 Death Magnetic: 3/5 Hardwired... to Self-Destruct: 3/5
and for my top 10, here was the breakdown Kill 'Em All: 1 Ride the Lightning: 4 Master of Puppets: 4 ...And Justice for All: 1
never got a chance to dig much into Metallica's discography, but RtL and MoP will definitely be mainstays in my playlists, as well as a few songs from their other albums

I mainly stuck with the first three albums. That's when I liked his vocals the best, the guitars wee the most heavy metal. I tried my hardest with "Enter Sandman" but it came just outside the top 10. Sorry. Only two Metal Ballads made my list. Guess which ones?

I'm lazy and haven't tagged in a while. 11 of you have submitted so far, however, and I thank you all for your participation. There was one week left until the deadline...but a situation arose, and I may not be able to work on this fully until at least next Saturday. Therefore, as with the Killers top 10, I'll be adding a few more days to the deadline - you now have until Monday, June 25, 8:00 PM EDT to submit.

That additional time should be plenty for me to dive into Metallica. Challenge accepted!

Okay, we've reached the deadline...but I may not calculate results until like midnight, so I'll be giving an unofficial extension until midnight for anyone doing this last-minute. I think everyone who I'd expect to submit has submitted by now (except for House Lannister), but I could be wrong....

Unfortunately, I'm out. I won't be able to give this a fair go, sadly.

You've been waiting on it for weeks, and here's the final results! Every album except for Lulu had at least one song get a vote. A lower turnout of 17 submitters this time, but I expected it. (# Subs = number of submitters who picked the song; High Rk = highest rank the song received) Here's a link to everyone's ballots:

The right song came in at #1. Now why can't I do this great on the Active rankdowns?

Also, lol @ a third of the unique picks being mine.

This is interesting...we had a three-way tie on who to rank next. Three different bands received nine votes each...so the tie had to be broken by the number of ballots spent. As a result, another veteran band finally gets their due - after being on the ballot 13 times, we're finally ranking The Cure! The losers of the tiebreaker were Rage Against the Machine and Korn, who've both been on the ballot six times. Meanwhile, Arcade Fire drop off the ballot with only two votes, and receive three replacements - one returning artist in 311, and two newcomers in Modest Mouse and the Cocteau Twins (which I'm personally pretty stoked about, even if I know they'll never get enough votes to make it)! (if anyone's curious to see the individual votes, I've added who everyone voted for on the ballot back to the Metallica responses sheet) Here's a link to The Cure's ballot!Anyways, ballots for The Cure will be due Sunday, July 15th at midnight. Happy listening!

I know a lot of songs by The Cure, but I have no idea which ones are my favorites. It'll be interesting trying to figure out my top ten.

One would be my number one as well. But Master of Puppets would be number two, so I'm fine.

whoa, The Cure finally gets their turn!!! they have a HUGE discography, not as huge as David Bowie, but then nobody does...it's going to be tough to narrow it down to only 10

This one hell of a dicography. Don't forget the nonsingles.
one of my all times favs. Jumping Someone Else's Train
The Cure - The Walk #12 peak in U.K. There best attempt at Club Disco music.
Surely be in my top 10.

One week already? Why did we have nearly a month for Metallica but not even three weeks for The Cure?

One week already? Why did we have nearly a month for Metallica but not even three weeks for The Cure? Metallica only got extended because of other commitments. It was supposed to be three weeks, just like this. ...wait, I only gave two weeks and five days for this. Let's add an extra two days to the deadline just to make it an even three weeks since announcement. Deadline is now July 17th at midnight ET, so you have a week (and slightly over 9 additional hours) to submit. (I promise I won't make any more changes to the deadline. Maybe I'll actually commit to a deadline the whole time for our next Top 10. )

Sent. This was hard. I could easily compile a list of 10 different songs from them that I equally like.

i hope people put more effort into this than just listening to KM,KM,KM, Disintegration & Wish...there are many great songs on those 3, but some of the best gems come in their early career

I have 7 pre-KM KM KM songs, and one each from KM KM KM, Disintegration and Wish and my #1 is a non-single.
