And so we begin the countdown. You've all nominated and rated and now it' time to reveal the results. Starting as always with the lowest scores first.
Pos - Artist-Title-Points-Average Score 283 - Enter Shikari -- When A Jealous Man Finds A Gun - 12pts - 3 282 - Bring Me The Horizon -- Shadow Moses - 28 - 4 281 - Spineshank -- New Disease - 17 - 4.25 280 - Enter Shikari -- Sorry, You're Not A Winner - 30 - 4.285 279 - Marilyn Manson -- Heart Shaped Glasses - 26 - 4.333 278 - Slayer -- Raining Blood - 27 - 4.5 277 - Hoobastank -- Crawling In The Dark - 19 - 4.75 276 - Deftones -- Back To School (Mini Maggit) - 24 - 4.8 275 - A Perfect Circle - Judith - 29 - 4.833 274 - Puddle Of Mudd -- Psycho - 20 - 5 273 - Skunk Anansie -- Hedonism (Just Because You Feel Good) - 25 - 5 272 - Daughtry -- It's Not Over - 35 - 5 271 - Puddle Of Mudd -- She Hates Me - 26 - 5.2 The first batch tells us a couple of things. Enter Shikari may be liked enough by at least one person to get nominations but that love is clearly not shared by the majority. The same is also true for Puddle Of Mudd with both bands having 2 tracks in the bottom pile. Bring Me The Horizon's Shadow Moses was the unlucky recipient of a big old -15 rom Chez Wombat when it might have been expected to perform much better otherwise. As did Slayer's Thrash Metal classic Raining Blood, although it did pick up a top mark as well. Whilst it's probably the only track in the list with any kind of reputation amongst Rock fans it's clearly not popular here. My top picks (just because I can) |

I didn't vote for it but Raining Blood clearly doesn't deserve to be down there. And I still bloody love Shadow Moses.

Aww I love Sorry You're Not A Winner even though it terrified me when I first heard it haha. The average score is going up very fast though so I suspect big casualties regularly.

Pos - Artist-Title-Points-Average Score
260 - Mars Volta -- Inertiatic ESP - 28 - 5.6 261 - Breaking Benjamin -- Breath - 28 - 5.6 262 - Limp Bizkit -- Eat You Alive - 28 - 5.6 263 - Deftones -- My Own Summer - 28 - 5.6 264 - Fuel -- Haemorhage In My Hands - 22 - 5.5 265 - P.O.D. -- Youth Of The Nation - 33 - 5.5 266 - Alestorm -- Captain Morgan's Revenge - 22 - 5.5 267 - Slipknot -- Left Behind - 27 - 5.4 268 - Staind -- So Far Away - 27 - 5.4 269 - TV On The Radio -- Dancing Choose - 27 - 5.4 270 - Thirteen Senses -- Thru' the Glass - 21- 5.35 Another 10 for you now and nothing really surprising here to my mind with no genuine classics falling away. Equal scores are seperated by highest scores and despite 2 10 point rates Slipknot falter with a zero score from Chez Wombat again. Lots of Nu Metal and Post Grunge in this section and TV On The Radio stand out as a distinctly Indie sounding track. My picks |

Poor Alestorm.
 It really is just a lot of fun, as all self-respecting PIRATE METAL should be. *.*

Massive apologies for not getting around to posting my scores! I was about two thirds of the way through and then completely forgot.
 Some fab songs dropping out already though! 'Youth Of The Nation' was such an anthem!

My scores not that popular so far then
 I can't stand Slipknot and that Bring Me The Horizon song lost out because it was playing on Radio 1 when my radio alarm clock went off VERY EARLY. 'Twas not the most pleasant awakening.

Left Behind is brilliant but I have a feeling the next few groups of ten are going to be bunches of songs that we can't believe we rated higher than Raining Blood.

Pos - Artist-Title-Points-Average Score
240 - AC/DC -- Highway To Hell - 54 - 6 241 - Lenny Kravitz -- Fly - 48 - 6 242 - Alterbridge -- Open Your Eyes - 24 - 6 243 - Heart - Crazy on You - 42 - 6 244 - Marilyn Manson -- Tourniquet - 30 - 6 245 - Placebo -- The Bitter End - 42 - 6 246 - Alterbridge -- Broken Wings - 24 - 6 247 - P.O.D -- Alive - 36 - 6 248 - Papa Roach -- Between Angels And Insects - 24 -6 249 - Rammstein -- Speluhr - 24 - 6 250 - 3 Doors Down -- Kryptonite - 47 - 5.875 251 - Metallica -- St Anger - 41 - 5.857 252 - Focus -- Hocus Pocus - 29 - 5.8 253 - Seether -- Broken - 29 - 5.8 254 - Deftones -- Change (In The House Of Flies) - 29 - 5.8 255 - The Offspring -- Pay The Man - 29 - 5.8 256 - Slipknot -- (Sic) 23 - 5.75 257 - AC/DC -- TNT- 51 - 5.667 258 - Bon Jovi -- Always - 51 - 5.667 259 - Puddle Of Mudd -- Blurry - 51 - 5.667 The next batch sees something of a theme developing here as Deftones, Slipknot, Alterbridge and Puddle Of Mudd all feature again or on multiple occasions. As do AC/DC in what could raise an eyebrow or two with their recognised classic and recent biggest hit Highway To Hell. In all of Rock their can't be many more bands as highly regarded and it is probably their definitave song. It's lowly position largely down to Eyes utter dislike of the track with a big -15. Without Eyes vote down it would have been in much higher position. They will feature again however. Among other acs to make a first appearance but which will feature again include Bon Jovi, The Offspring, Rammstein, Papa Roach, Lenny Kravitz and Metallica whose largely derided St Anger album has its title track appear. Lastly. and somewhat surprisingly Seether's Broken comes fairly low despite the presence of Ms Amy Lee on the track. A feature which I wrongly thought would put it much higher given her bands popularity among some members here. My pick of the bunch is really only Highway To Hell but have some others too - |

Pos - Artist-Title-Points-Average Score
220 - Evanescence -- Call Me When You're Sober - 46 - 6.571 221 - Kiss -- Crazy Crazy Nights - 46 - 6.571 222 - Good Charlotte -- Girls And Boys - 46 - 6.571 223 - Sonic Boom Six -- Bigger Than Punk Rock - 39 - 6.5 224 - Pixies -- Planet Of Sound - 26 - 6.5 225 - Nirvana -- Rape Me - 52 - 6.5 226 - Slipknot -- Dead Memories - 26 - 6.5 227 - Buckcherry -- Crazy Bitch - 32 - 6.4 228 - Stone Sour -- Through Glass - 32 - 6.4 229 - Queen -- The Show Must Go On - 51 - 6.375 230 - 30 Seconds To Mars -- Beautiful Lie - 44 - 6.285 231 - At The Drive-In -- One Armed Scissor - 25 - 6.2 232 - Shinedown -- Burning Bright - 25 - 6.2 233 - Pantera -- Walk - 25 - 6.2 234 - Korn -- Thoughtless - 25 - 6.25 235 - Rage Against The Machine -- Killing In The Name - 6.222 236 - Theory Of A Dead Man -- Bad Girlfriend - 31 - 6.2 237 - Rise Against - Injection - 31 - 6.2 238 - Wolfmother -- The Joker And The Thief - 37 - 6.166 239 - The Offspring -- Original Prankster - 43 - 6.142 And on to the next batch. A return again for The Offspring and it won't be the last we see of them bu it will be for Slipknot who appear here with the most mellow of all their entries. Perhaps that says something about them and the site. Also Corey Taylor's other band Stone Sour feature too so I can only assume that the man's work just isn't that popular here despite a few lovers. Notable others include Rage Against The Machine who certainly won't be getting a surprise number one on this chart. Buckcherry and Korn also make first appearances but will both feature again as will 30 Seconds To Mars, Evanescence and Nirvana. All of whom have a fair number of songs in the countdown to come. Queen too, limp in with what for me is a surprising choice from their extensive catalogue of perennial favourites. Aside from the obvious track there are plenty I would've expected to out perform The Show Must Go On but somehow never got nominated. My picks |

Bigger Than Punk Rock
 Deserved better, although it's very far from a conventional rock song so I didn't think it'd do too well. Beautiful Lie is also quite brilliant. |

Pos - Artist-Title-Points-Average Score
201 - Wolfmother -- Woman - 41 - 6.833 202 - Jeff Buckley -- So Real - 41 - 6.833 203 - Within Temptation -- What Have You Done? - 34 - 6.8 204 - Nightwish -- Sleepwalker - 34 - 6.8 205 - Buckcherry -- Next 2 You - 34 - 6.8 206 - System Of A Down -- Aerials - 34 - 6.8 207 - Soundgarden -- Black Hole Sun - 61 - 6.777 208 - Evanescence -- Lithium - 54 - 6.75 209 - White Stripes -- Blue Orchid - 54 - 6.75 210 - Shinedown -- I Dare You - 27 - 6.75 211 - Nine Inch Nails -- March Of The Pigs - 27 - 6.75 212 - Buckcherry -- Everything - 27 - 6.75 213 - Placebo -- Pure Morning - 47 - 6.714 214 - Within Temptation -- Shot In The Dark - 40 - 6.666 215 - Linkin Park -- Pts Of Athrty - 40 - 6.666 216 - Iron Maiden -- The Number Of The Beast - 53 - 6.625 217 - Red Hot Chili Peppers -- Otherside - 53 - 6.625 218 - L7 -- Pretend We're Dead - 33 - 6.6 219 - Jet -- Look What You've Done - 33 - 6.6 The next group seems to up the ante somewhat in terms of big names - Most notably one of the defining names in Rock, Iron Maiden, make their debut and only appearance in the countdown with a recognised classic. Site favourites Nightwish and Within Temptation also appear and big names like Red Hot Chili Peppers, System Of A Down, Linkin Park, White Stripes and Nine Inch Nails make their entrance too. All will feature later. Wolfmother, Buckcherry and Placebo end their participation in the list. Soundgarden and L7 fly the flag for 90s Grunge with two minor classics. After this we enter the top 200 and we can expect more and more big names to feature. My picks from a quality group :- |

Perhaps Evanescence's popularity on Buzzjack was overestimated?
Some brilliant tracks in that section but on second glance I suppose none are glaring omissions from the top 200. 'Otherside' was my introduction to RHCP so it's a personal fave

QUOTE(Riser @ Feb 9 2014, 09:12 PM) Perhaps Evanescence's popularity on Buzzjack was overestimated? Yeah perhaps. There's always been 2 tracks that seem very popular and I just figured the rest would be too. I don't disagree with the placings at all but I was a little surprised. |

Pos - Artist-Title-Points-Average Score
181 - Metallica -- Nothing Else Matters - 64 - 7.111 182 - Blink 182 -- I Miss You - 63 - 7 183 - 30 Seconds To Mars -- Closer To The Edge - 49 - 7 184 - Chris Cornell -- You Know My Name - 42 - 7 185 - MC5 -- Kick Out The Jams - 28 - 7 186 - Paramore -- All We Know - 42 - 7 187 - Japandroids -- The House That Heaven Built -28 - 7 188 - AC/DC -- Thunderstruck - 63 - 7 189 - Jet -- Cold Hard Bitch - 35 -7 190 - Nightwish -- Nemo - 35 - 7 191 - Rammstein -- Sonne - 35 - 7 192 - Dream Theater -- Pull Me Under - 42 - 7 193 - Hole -- Doll Parts - 35 - 7 194 - Heart -- Barracuda - 62 - 6.888 195 - Smashing Pumpkins -- Bullet With Butterfly Wings - 55 - 6.875 196 - Marilyn Manson -- The Beautiful People - 48 - 6.871 197 - Led Zeppelin -- Babe, I'm Gonna Leave You - 48 - 6.871 198 - Pearl Jam -- Go - 48 - 6.871 199 - Dead Kennedys -- Holiday In Cambodia - 41 - 6.833 200 - Yellow Card -- Ocean Avenue - 41 - 6.833 Next group and the BIG names begin to become more frequent. Led Zeppelin being the most obvious. Not their most famous track (more later) but a highlight of their classic debut. AC/DC return with a popular later track and Parmore, Marilyn Manson and Metallica pop up (the latter with my wedding song). Other notable bands to show up are Pearl Jam, Hole, Heart (before they went hair metal), Rammstein, 30 Seconds To Mars and Nightwish. Punk legends Dead Kennedys sneak in just, and a surprisingly high position for 60s Garage and Proto-Punk legends the MC5 who you may recognise from a KLF sampled snippet. A choice few - |

Both surprisingly low down. Sum 41 have both their nominated songs score similarly and Foo Fighters who also have 2 make their debut. Evanescence return once more proving that they are consistent if nothing else. BFMV, Twisted Sister, Def Leppard, Twin Atlantic, Deep Purple, Pat Benatar, Velvet Revolver, Amaranthe and Kasabian all begin and end their involvement here. A few for you - |
