Legs Don’t matter They’re just softening, I’m limping Bugs Don’t matter No death is suffering So squish it
I can say with all honesty that I don't even really like either of these finalists enough to vote. Bring on the 'Ship!
Final Totals: On The Run - 4 Death Of A Strawberry - 9 ----------------- That does it for the Instant Gratification bracket! Mothership will be starting up here in a few minutes.
Round One: 1) Exposed vs. Here Comes The Winner 2) Chocolate Jackalope vs. Deception 3) Philosopher King vs. Betrayed By The Game 4) Young Robot vs. Chucky Vs. The Giant Tortoise 5) Inspire The Liars vs. Man Of The Year --------------- Round Two: 1) Match 1 Winner vs. Frozen One 2) Match 2 Winner vs. Match 3 Winner 3) Match 4 Winner vs. Petting Zoo Justice 4) Match 5 Winner vs. Flossie Dickey Bounce Round One will begin now and run until Monday morning! Afterburner comes out in 13 days and we'll need to stretch a couple rounds out a little more and also do the b-sides round prior to Afterburner so that we don't have to pause the bracket. In hindsight I probably should have mapped out the bracket a little better and started it a few days later than I did. I hope everyone is ok with this!
Here Comes The Winner Deception Philosopher King Young Robot Inspire The Liars Young Robot, Philosopher King, Deception, and Inspire the Liars are my 4 favorites here. Hope to see them all to the next round too.
Agreed with both of your posts. This is the best Tilian album, and these are the best two songs. I also love Man of the Year.
Current Totals: Exposed - 4 Here Comes The Winner - 4 Chocolate Jackalope - 0 Deception - 8 Philosopher King - 3 Betrayed By The Game - 5 Young Robot - 4 Chucky Vs. The Giant Tortoise - 4 Inspire The Liars - 7 Man Of The Year - 1
Here Comes The Winner Deception Betrayed By The Game Chucky Vs. The Giant Tortoise Inspire The Liars this album is pretty fucking stacked huh?
Exposed - This is one of the few lyrically great DGD songs. That chorus is ballad perfection. Chocolate Jackalope - Jon's silly lyrics, Tilian's great melodies, Will's infectious riffing and rapping show what make DGD great. Betrayed By The Game - This is pop perfection, the chorus makes me feel like I can fly. Chucky Vs. The Giant Tortoise - I love both of these songs, but Chucky is just a bit faster and more unique. That "Rhino Pico De Gallo" line always makes me smile. And that "dress code, cocktails" line is so brilliant and badass. Inspire The Liars - This is unequivocally the band's biggest & most important work. This showcases everything thag makes them brilliant in a fun and accessible package.
Yeah, these 4 are all among the best of the Tilian era for me, and most are gonna lose. This thread's quickly making me realize the majority prefer fun, lighthearted DGD over super weird and melodic DGD, where I'm the opposite.
Current Totals: Exposed - 6 Here Comes The Winner - 6 Chocolate Jackalope - 1 Deception - 11 Philosopher King - 4 Betrayed By The Game - 8 Young Robot - 4 Chucky Vs. The Giant Tortoise - 8 Inspire The Liars - 11 Man Of The Year - 1 ----------------- As I said yesterday, this round will run until Monday morning! I hope everyone is having a safe, enjoyable weekend.
