Blame it on Bad Brackets (Bayside Bracket) Bracket • Page 47

I like both of these, but I’ll go with Mary because it’s more unique and I’ve found it stuck in my head some the past couple of days.

@333 GANG I'm not super familiar with Bayside's b-sides & bonus tracks...what songs will/should be part of that round? Are we covering anything prior to Sirens & Condolences?

 

I’m not sure if it’s necessary to include anything pre-S&C. Those songs aren’t very good, and there’s no way any of them make it out of the extras round anyway. I’ll have to go through and compile a list tonight, but there’s Winter, It Don’t Exist, a couple bonus tracks from Cult and Killing Time, etc.

 

Two Letters - 4
Mary - 10

This round is probably already over, but I’m going to be pretty busy for a few hours with work. We’ll start the next round this afternoon sometime.

 

Two Letters

 

We normally don't include solo stuff for band brackets, but any interest in throwing Anthony's solo stuff into the B-side bracket?

 

I personally wouldn’t, just in the interest of trying to determine the best Bayside song, but if the majority wanted to I would be fine with it.

 

FINE. FORGET I MENTIONED IT.

 

To avoid Gone winning the whole thing let's just do Bayside only.

Don't forget "This Could Be Our Lives" from the Vacancy 7" as it may just take the whole thing.

also I'll vote for Mary

 

Let’s work on a master list here, no covers. So far I’ve got:

Winter
It Don’t Exist
Dancing Like an Idiot
Indiana
Call Me
You’ve Already Been
This Could Be Our Lives
Don’t Come Easy
Monster

Are any of these actually covers that I’m unaware of? What else am I missing?

 

Do you need EPs?

Long Stories Short EP

In terms of songs...

Paternal Reversal
Count the Score
Battle Scars

 

What are people’s thoughts on including pre-S&C material? I don’t think any of it has a fighting chance, and there’s a good chance a number of people may not have heard it anyway.

Good call on Paternal Raversal. I don’t believe I’ve ever heard the others. What are they from?

 

Cold and Blue and Lifeless is super catchy, even though it is before S&C. Lyrics are (obviously) rough, but I could see myself voting for it a few times due to the nostalgia factor for me.

 

We can include the EP songs if people want. I’m up for whatever, I just want to get a master list of everything together by this evening so I can get the bracket sorted.

Also, I just remembered “Call Me” is a Blondie cover, so that one is cut.

 

Call Me is a cover

Battle Scars is missing

 

Haha, I just remembered that. Good catch.

Where is Battle Scars from? I don’t think I’ve ever actually heard it.

 

It's from Take Action Vol 10 comp

Here's a trash quality link:

Once get home I can upload it to a share link for anyone interested, looks like it's not readily available anymore...

 

Very cool! I’d like that. Definitely never heard this one before. Fake fan, apparently haha

 

Also don't forget

[ignore me I missed dancing like an idiot]

 

Ik it’s futile but my vote’s for two letters

 

It means everything in my heart.

(Top 6-7 Bayside song for me)

 

Winter
It Don’t Exist
Dancing Like an Idiot
Indiana
You’ve Already Been
This Could Be Our Lives
Don’t Come Easy
Monster
Paternal Reversal
Battle Scars
Count the Score

This is what we’ve got for the miscellaneous round so far. Anything else?

I feel like including the early EPs will make for a super long round that will take forever haha

 

Prediction: You've Already Been wins.
