Welcome to the bracket thread for THE MAINE In this tournament, all songs from the band’s studio releases will battle NCAA style for the title of champion. Rules: All users can vote only once per round. Every round will last up to 24 hours, depending on how close the matches are. If it’s a tie after 24 hours, I will have to break it with a final vote. Your vote is verified by me liking your post, after that you can’t change your vote. If you haven’t heard all of the songs, please give them a listen before choosing. We’ll do this chronologically, and it will all end in an ultimate bracket consisting of the winning songs from the first ten matches. The match ups are randomly generated by an external site to make this fair. Rounds: Can't Stop Won't Stop Black & White Pioneer (& The Good Love) Forever Halloween American Candy Covers (Side A-B + "Punk Goes..." covers) Lovely Little Lonely Various EP songs (Old & New) Possible Wild Card round (runner-ups from previous rounds) FINAL ROUND Tracks NOT included in the bracket: Acoustic and/or live versions Remixes and radio edits Demos and unreleased tracks Feel free to discuss your choices, it’s okay to disagree as long as we keep it friendly. The bracket will begin once enough users are ready to participate, so share this thread, spread the word, and let’s do this!
I know the whole point is there's no clever title, but this could've been "A Bracket Thread for A Band Called The Maine" and I apologize but I feel a bit disappointed.
Is it okay to participate if it will be the first time I've heard any of the albums that aren't B&W, AC, and LLL? I'll obviously listen to the stuff before voting still lmao.
Yep I’m in. I’ll be dipping in and out of this thread though as I know some albums better than others.
Can't Stop Won't Stop ROUND 1: 1a) We All Roll Along vs. Count 'em One, Two, Three 1b) This Is the End vs. Time to Go 1c) You Left Me vs. I Must Be Dreaming 1d) Everything I Ask For vs. Girls Do What They Want Upcoming ROUND 2: 2a) Winner of 1a vs. Whoever She Is 2b) Winner of 1b vs. We'll All Be... 2c) Winner of 1c vs. Into Your Arms 2d) Winner of 1d vs. Kiss and Sell Gonna keep this one open for a full 24 hours, to get as many users' votes as possible. Happy voting!
Confession time: I put I Must Be Dreaming on a Mixtape (cd) for my gf senior year. Still my favorite song on that album, but always want to cringe when I hear it.
