I’m almost done listening! Won’t forget to vote

 

As expected, I’m killing it this round

 

It was suuuuch a tough round to pick for, but I liked the playlist. Since all but one voter are in I’ll say that Press Club was one of the three I had narrowed down to and was surprised to see taken! This was the song I was going to submit - an anthemic rocker and one of my favorite songs of the decade so far

 

my alternates were this song, which someone on this site reccomended so I thought it may be an known entity:

and this one, which was produced and co-written by Butch Walker, and we certainly have talked about her and the EP on this site / in that thread

 

James Ivy was the last pick I weeded out before getting to just three haha. Woulda gotten points from me for sure

 

First song on this album was my other choice

 

This is really good!

 

Yoooo my first 1st place round! If you like that Combat song make sure to check out that whole album, sounds like Jeff Rosenstock writing The Monitor.

 

I thought I had a chance at beating Aaron this season, but surprise spooky round feels like a lock for the Chorus crowned king of horror!!

 

I feel like I know what Aaron picked.

 

You are more confident than I am lmao

I don't even know what I picked!

 

hmm it says you submitted already

 

I forgor

 

Oops I forgot to vote, but glad y’all liked Marigold!

@Gianni the new album is good, but doesn’t quite hit the same level for me. It brings in more of the 90s pop-rock sound and is a bit more polished.

@Aaron Mook per the above, the vocals are improved, from a technical standpoint, on the newer album and the rougher edges are sanded off but I kind of missed them.

 

gotcha - I still added it to a playlist to check out. Appreciate the find - and bummer that you didn’t get votes in!

 

Damn, a rare appearance on the podium. Glad everyone like Mabe Fratti

 

No ink and dagger on Apple Music.
Go-Getter Greg was a good pull.
Can’t believe I could’ve picked Alkaline Trio, thought for sure someone else would.

 

The Chelsea Wolf song from the walk out song week a few seasons ago was creepy as fuck

 

Music League knows spooky season doesn’t end just because October is over!! Excited to dig into this one.

 

It was hard for me to pick something this round since it's been so warm here and I haven't been in a spooky fall music mood. But I just went with the first thing that came to mind because I totally bungled the last 2 rounds and have no chance to win anyway.

 

I figured it was still Halloween weekend so let's rock

 

Squirrel Nut Zippers!

I used that tune in the “getting horny” round a few seasons back.i dunno about spooky but classic for sure

 

My runner up pick was A Forest by The Cure. Love that song and it always makes me feel a little bit anxious.

 

Any song by the cure would have gotten all of my votes.

 

This was my backup pick:
