This is over. Next Round: This I How It Goes Vs. Viking Death March Chasing the Sun Vs. Devil In a Midnight Mass
This Is How It Goes (This was fairly difficult for me - I'd consider both songs to be top tier Billy Talent) Devil In a Midnight Mass (I really like Chasing the Sun a lot, but Devil In a Midnight Mass is an all-timer)
Viking Death March Devil in a Midnight Mass (I totally understand, and am cool with This Is How It Goes winning the first matchup but VDM is the song that got me back into Billy Talent after I lost a bit of interest in them from III being a disappointment so I wanted to make sure this song got some love.)
Final scores: This Is How It Goes - 4 Viking Death March - 1 Chasing The Sun - 0 Devil in a Midnight Mass - 5 THIS IS IT! THE FINAL BATTLE! WHO WILL EMERGE VICTORIOUS? YOU DECIDE! This Is How It Goes Vs. Devil in a Midnight Mass
Devil in a Midnight Mass Thanks for running this @Micool1! This has been fun going through their discography. They aren’t a band that is in my regular rotation, but I’ll have to change that. This bracket helped me revisit some old favorites and check out some of their stuff for the first time!
This is an extremely difficult choice because both songs are incredible but in the end I’m going to go with Devil in a Midnight Mass Thanks @Micool1 for running this! It wasn’t a massive turnout but it was still a lot of fun.
And yeah props to @Micool1, this has been really great. I got to revisit a lot of music that I love and finally got up to speed with everything else.
You really gonna make me tie break the final round? Fine. Both of those are very worthy winners. I think we can agree that this band knows how to open albums with bangers. Can I declare them both winners? Holy hell, this is tough. Alright, I have made a decision and I hereby declare This Is How It Goes the winner of the Billy Talent bracket! Thank you all for participating and see you in the upcoming Green Day bracket! I might do a bracket for Palms/Deeper Wells in the old Thrice bracket thread before since it would only take 3-4 days.
Yesssss! Very rarely does my favorite song by a band actually win the whole thing. This is a defining moment for me in my bracketing career haha See you all in the Green Day bracket!
