    A (Cancelled) Dork Prestigious

    It’s because most people only listened to the first song and then changed to something else, we’re the real fans who listened to the whole album.

    Petition to name OLG’s cover the best in the scene

    also, it feels wrong to change the bracket rules this late in the game but one idea could be giving the wild card to the song with the most votes through the album bracket? In either a particular round or overall?

  10. Big true, OLG is their best cover art no question. Love the font they used on the band name here too, would absolutely grab a tee shirt with that printed on the heart. Funny how after this record they stopped including text on their covers at all

    I'm going to listen to these songs again right now and cast the tiebreaking vote :verysad: Sorry in advance to 13 of you.

    If anyone wants to break the tie in the next 10 or so minutes that would be cool!

    That's an interesting idea, but I'm going to stick with this way for now - something to consider though for future brackets! I'm about 99% certain what I'd like to do next by the way

    At the end of this bracket (if I remember) I'll go back through the previous rounds and will figure out what would have been the wild cards for the albums had we gone with the method you mentioned and we'll see if those would've made for better wild cards.

    Man, this is brutal. I don't like that I'm in this position, but I should've known it would come down to this...

    Living Together is a perfect opening track and Your Friends Are Gone is a perfect closing track.

    Living together is a very immediate song and skewers toward their more aggressive side, while Your Friends Are Gone is more subtle.

    With these songs being about dead even for me, I am going to give the slightest edge to Living Together based on nostalgia. I connected to that song more earlier in my life and it probably does have something to do with its order in the tracklist. Again, my apologies go out to 13 of you!
