I wish I had known about this thread earlier. Oh well. It seems as if every album has went with the predictable choice. I suppose my votes wouldn't have mattered.
I would like turnpike divides to win this round. I’d even be okay with it winning the whole thing tbh
Fuck all of this matchup, but honestly the only song v song that wouldn’t be hard in this round is millimeter up against any other song. No Answers Open Quotes (I fucking love this song) Past and Future( this match up was hard. Both songs are perf) Stay True( one of their best closers)
Goddamn I’m spinning this rn and it’s been a while but this is still easily my favorite album of theirs
While technically still my "least favorite" album from them outside of Waiting, that just goes more to show how strong their discog is. Just a really cool inventive and fantastic album all around.
