Dismantle. Repair.

Well, well, well what do we have here

Dismantle. Repair.: 8
(*Fin): 7

Closing in on the final votes.

 

... you motherfuckers are going to break me.

 

Hehehe it's not a bracket without an upset that makes me happy but infuriates everyone else.

 

If Fin doesn’t win there’s no point in continuing on here.

 

It was always going to be down to these two. This is a good nail-biter to end the bracket on. Looking forward to the next brackets where I don't care way too much.

 

Fin

Glad I got my vote in! Did not expect this so close

 

Wouldn't Fin losing mean the opposite? If Fin wins Cities, it's more than likely going to take the whole championship. If it loses, there still may be some surprises.

 

Who said I wanted surprises?

 

I believe it was @Craig Manning who originally said this in the Jimmy Eat World bracket regarding 23, but I am gonna borrow it for this. The idea that a band has to have 1 song that must win the whole bracket or it invalidates that bracket is honestly a little silly. Anberlin is a band that has a lot of great songs, and Cities is an overall great album. Fin is a fantastic song, but the band has a lot of fantastic songs and that is what made them such a great band. If Dismantle.Repair. dethroned it, that would be fine with me because it is also a song that I feel is just about on par with Fin. In fact there are several songs that I feel come really close to Fin on here. It's not this untouchable song that must win or we aren't true Anberlin fans. Quite the opposite actually.

 

Yea, this should go just like the JEW bracket.

 

This guy though.

 

We’re tied at 8 apiece! Need our 17th voter to break it.

Also ima reiterate what i said a few pages ago to build off what @DesolateEarth earth said: closers have an advantage for how different and heavy they usually are. The thought of a closer winning the overall bracket is actually kinda disappointing to me. I wanna see how the songs they dominated do against others.

 

You should break it!

 

FTFY

 

Fin

 

Dismantle. Repair.

 

OHHHHH snap!

 

It’s been 24 hours! Break this tie @js977 and let’s move on!

 

Lol fair enough

 

dismantle. repair.

 

10-9 to Dismantle. Repair.! The mighty (*fin) is taken down in dramatic, record vote breaking fashion. Stay tuned for New Surrender.

 

*wipes brow*

 

NEVER TAKE BRACKETS PERSONAL: THE ANBERLIN BRACKET TOURNAMENT

Good evening everyone and welcome to Chorus's next iteration of the discography bracket challenges. It is my pleasure to host a bracket for yet another of my all time favorite bands and I’m excited to see how this shakes out. Quick review: these are randomly generated brackets (no seeding!) to determine a winner for each album, which will then face off in a Champions bracket to decide the best overall Anberlin song!

Rules:
1. Voting over a 10-24 hour period, depending on closeness and how busy i am that day lolz.
2. You must vote on every match in a round; ill only vote in the event of a tie. I am, however, generous with giving my opinions.
3. Please discuss your choices; don’t give the anti-bracketers ammo!
4. Byes may be necessary. These are randomly generated; I do not pick them.
5. Counted votes are signified by me 'liking' your post; no vote changes. Choose wisely!

A word from the wise: People change in the brackets. Oh find the best song if you can. But be very wary, you might just lose yourself along the way.
