It’s cool, people seem to be enjoying them on the whole and I know it’s unheralded work to be running one of these. It’s actually kind of fun to come in and see how things shake out when I’m away and just vote in the middle of an album.
Not trying to rush you! There's still a few people out there that probably need to get votes in anyway. I just like seeing the brackets come out to see what's matched up against what.
Okay everyone. Time to close out From Parts Unknown with Moor moving into the Championship position. FROM PARTS UNKNOWN FINAL ROUND: Moor - 12 Decayin' With The Boys - 6 <--- ETiDiscography Tournament ---> Before this tournament of voting for the best songs from one of the greatest heavy bands to ever grace the earth kicks off, we have to cover some of the typical ground rules ladies and gents. I will repost the following and keep up with score updates as often as possible until we have narrowed it down to one. As always, all participants should be respectful and considerate of opposing opinions/votes. These tournament brackets are meant to be inclusive and fun for everyone. Open discussion on all rounds and votes is encouraged! In order for your votes to count, you must vote on every match-up in the round. Also, to make it fair across the board, no changing votes once yours are posted. Round lengths will range from a minimum of 10hrs to 24hrs, pending run rules and average voters each round of course. I will be keeping score daily and confirming votes via likes. We will work our way backwards through their discography, starting with Low Teens through to a round of Bonus Tracks released by the band, and then ending with a Championship round. (We will skip over Burial Plot Bidding War EP as the band would probably encourage us to do so anyways.) In order to avoid an uneven Championship round, as well as to keep things interesting, we'll have a Wild Card round between the 8 LP runner-ups for a spot in the finals. Byes are unfortunately necessary in some cases, but all brackets are randomly generated and I will sit out voting unless a tie breaker is required. Championship Round Choices: (Low Teens) Petal (From Parts Unknown) Moor (Ex Lives) (New Junk Aesthetic) (The Big Dirty) (Gutter Phenomenon) (Hot Damn!) (Last Night In Town) (Bonus Tracks) (Wild Card) <---------------------------------> @okayibelieveyou @DeRRek @StormAndTheSun @aoftbsten @Sean Murphy Next up is Ex Lives (2012) everyone. Here are your brackets for Round 1 as well as the matches you'll see for Round 2. Enjoy. EX LIVES ROUND 1: A Wild, Shameless Pain VS I Suck (Blood) The Low Road Has No Exits VS Typical Miracle Underwater Bimbos From Outer Space VS Partying Is Such A Sweet Sorrow EX LIVES ROUND 2: Touch Yourself VS Match 1 Winner Indian Giver VS Revival Mode Drag King VS Match 2 Winner Holy Book Of Dilemma VS Match 3 Winner
I Suck (Blood) Typical Miracle Partying Is Such A Sweet Sorrow (The best two tracks on the album for me, wtf.)
@bachna84 @BTDandFeelingThis In the same respect of when I visit Cleveland, if you both ever make it to upstate NY, let's go to an ETID hometown show in Buffalo together.
I Suck (Blood) Low Road Has No Exits Underwater Bimbos From Outer Space God dammit, this is only the 1st round and there's already a tough matchup. Bimbo vs Partying was way too hard. Partying has the kick ass banjo intro and one of my favorite ETID choruses. But Bimbo's just comes and hits you in the face and has one of my favorite ETID lyrics at the end ("I refuse to be the only man put to rest in a mass grave..."). Damn you for making me have to choose! Low Road vs Typical Miracle was tough too, but Low Road just does a little more for me.
I WANT TO BE DEAD WITH CHORUS.FM MEMBERS I don't know Ex-lives well enough to appropriately vote, but will be revisiting this album today!
EX LIVES ROUND 1 SO FAR: A Wild, Shameless Pain - 1 I Suck (Blood) - 9 The Low Road Has No Exits - 3 Typical Miracle - 7 Underwater Bimbos From Outer Space - 8 Partying Is Such A Sweet Sorrow - 2
