Jacobs Run - Hold on a Minute (Pipa, #4) vs. Nothing but Thieves - Live Like Animals (3Cheers, #5) (can't say Pipa's choice is too surprising based on the music, but it's tough for me to vote against NBT, and that song in particular)
Freeweights - Nothing To Burn (Dr. Indie, #4) vs. The Dear Hunter - Shake Me [Awake] (Green Baron, #5) (believe it or not, I'm torn...TDH is normally an instant vote, but that Freeweights song might as well be from 1984...tough call, but I can't resist voting for TDH, when applicable)
A Perfect Circle - The Doomed (Lordeftones #4) vs. Ariel Pink - Feels Like Heaven (peacebone, #5) (tough matchup for Ariel Pink)
Within Reason - Invictus (janinho, #4) vs. The War on Drugs - Strangest Thing (Red, #5)
Franz Ferdinand - Always Ascending (peacebone, #4) vs. White Moth, Black Butterfly - The Serpent (Octopuff in Kumquat, #5) (I contemplated voting for "The Serpent", honestly...a pretty damn good first listen)
Chromatics - Shadow (bangwave, #4) vs. Pale Waves - New Years Eve (Dr. Indie, #5) (I imagine Doc had a conniption over this matchup...wasn't an easy matchup for me, either)
Avatar - A Statue of the King (Red, #4) vs. Queens of the Stone Age - Feet Don't Fail Me (Lordeftones #5) (you planned this, didn't you, wheat :kii: ; now that I know that Avatar is going to lose, I'm switching my vote...believe me, I will be supporting QOTSA in the future)

Great group of songs. I didn't really dislike any.Jacobs Run - Hold on a Minute (Pipa, #4) vs. Nothing but Thieves - Live Like Animals (3Cheers, #5) Pipa sometimes picks those songs I will choose within the first three guitar strums. Freeweights - Nothing To Burn (Dr. Indie, #4) vs. The Dear Hunter - Shake Me [Awake] (Green Baron, #5) This band has such a perfect 80's vibe. You can pretty much pick any song of there and slot nicely in that era
A Perfect Circle - The Doomed (Lordeftones #4) vs. Ariel Pink - Feels Like Heaven (peacebone, #5) Did not expect that vibe from a band called Ariel Pink. That was hot. Got some; Psychedelic Furs ,vibes too. Download? check.Within Reason - Invictus (janinho, #4) vs. The War on Drugs - Strangest Thing (Red, #5) Franz Ferdinand - Always Ascending (peacebone, #4) vs. White Moth, Black Butterfly - The Serpent (Octopuff in Kumquat, #5) that "Serpent" chick did have nice vocals, and it was a nice pleasant song. , but its kind of hard for me to vote against Franz Ferdinand.Chromatics - Shadow (bangwave, #4) vs. Pale Waves - New Years Eve (Dr. Indie, #5) "Shadow" always sounded great to me. If you like The 1975 with female vocals check out more song by Pale Waves. Avatar - A Statue of the King (Red, #4) vs. Queens of the Stone Age - Feet Don't Fail Me (Lordeftones #5) This one was hard. I like both songs. I'll choose what i think might be the underdog?

Jacobs Run - Hold on a Minute (Pipa, #4) vs. Nothing but Thieves - Live Like Animals (3Cheers, #5) Although ONE of my least favorite Broken Machine tracks
Freeweights - Nothing To Burn (Dr. Indie, #4) vs. The Dear Hunter - Shake Me [Awake] (Green Baron, #5)
A Perfect Circle - The Doomed (Lordeftones #4) vs. Ariel Pink - Feels Like Heaven (peacebone, #5) This is the only song I like off of Ariel's album.
Within Reason - Invictus (janinho, #4) vs. The War on Drugs - Strangest Thing (Red, #5) While I've always liked The War on Drugs, I've thought they're way overhyped especially on here. But THIS IS THE BEST WAR ON DRUGS SONG I'VE EVER HEARD. I'm gonna have to listen to their full album now.
Franz Ferdinand - Always Ascending (peacebone, #4) vs. White Moth, Black Butterfly - The Serpent (Octopuff in Kumquat, #5) For some reason this song didn't hit me until this listen. Maybe I'm at the perfect level of high to absorb the music but I'm really into this now. Good job, Franz.

don't do both Nickelback songs dirty this time around
both are some of their best tracks in a long time (specifically "The Betrayal (Act III)" – a career highlight).

Remo Drive - Yer Killin Me (3Cheers, Extra #4) vs. Manolo Panic - Runaway (Octopuff in Kumquat, Extra #5) Remo Drive is okay, sounds like something I should like more than I do.
The Quiet Hollers - Broken Guitar (Octopuff in Kumquat, Extra #4) vs. Wolf Alice - Heavenward (Red, Extra #5) Eh, the Wolf Alice song was a bit dull.
Grizzly Bear - Mourning Sound (humanshazam, Extra #4) vs. The Killers - Tyson vs. Douglas (dm2081, Extra #5) Mourning Sound is very pleasant and I like it decently, but I like this Killers song a lot.
Nickelback - The Betrayal (Act III) (dm2081, Extra #4) vs. Citizen - Jet (Green Baron, Extra #5) Okay yeah fine, this Nickelback song is good, I like it a lot and will probably end up charting it, but Jet was a top 40 song on my chart, it gets the vote.
Nickelback - Home (James, Extra #4) vs. K. Flay - Black Wave (Lordeftones Extra #5) Home was pretty alright, Black Wave is really good though (would've been a good followup Active hit for K Flay)
Algiers - Death March (Red, Extra #4) vs. Pinkshinyultrablast - Find Your Saint (peacebone, Extra #5) Both were just okay. As much as I like The Underside of Power, I haven't heard too much from this Algiers album that's really clicked with me in the same way, though this song is good. Find Your Saint was pleasant and I liked some of the instrumentation, but not too memorable.
Graveyard Club - Diamond City (bangwave, Extra #4) vs. Partner - Play the Field (Pipa, Extra #5) Hmm close one I liked both a lot. While I do usually lean towards the more new wave-y picks, I think I liked Play the Field a bit more

Remo Drive - Yer Killin Me (3Cheers, Extra #4) vs. Manolo Panic - Runaway (Octopuff in Kumquat, Extra #5)...Remo Drive sounds like Fidlar, it's fun...but Runaway is slightly better
The Quiet Hollers - Broken Guitar (Octopuff in Kumquat, Extra #4) vs. Wolf Alice - Heavenward (Red, Extra #5)...nice piano, reminds me a bit of The National
Grizzly Bear - Mourning Sound (humanshazam, Extra #4) vs. The Killers - Tyson vs. Douglas (dm2081, Extra #5)...dammit, two of the best songs of the round & they have to be pitted against each other, sorry Shazam but I gotta go w/ the song that's spent the past 2 months in my personal Top 10 (2 weeks of which were at #1)
Nickelback - The Betrayal (Act III) (dm2081, Extra #4) vs. Citizen - Jet (Green Baron, Extra #5)...does Jet have a song called Citizen?
Nickelback - Home (James, Extra #4) vs. K. Flay - Black Wave (Lordeftones Extra #5)
Algiers - Death March (Red, Extra #4) vs. Pinkshinyultrablast - Find Your Saint (peacebone, Extra #5)
Graveyard Club - Diamond City (bangwave, Extra #4) vs. Partner - Play the Field (Pipa, Extra #5)

Remo Drive - Yer Killin Me (3Cheers, Extra #4) vs. Manolo Panic - Runaway (Octopuff in Kumquat, Extra #5) - I have a friend that really likes Remo Drive, but I can't get into them at all. "Yer Killin' Me" was not for me in the slightest. "Runaway" was pretty decent. It had a nice sound to it. Not something I would go back to, but a decent listen.
The Quiet Hollers - Broken Guitar (Octopuff in Kumquat, Extra #4) vs. Wolf Alice - Heavenward (Red, Extra #5) - "Broken Guitar" was nice, but it doesn't go anywhere for me. Another decent listen, but nothing I would come back to. Honestly, Wolf Alice doesn't really do it for me. I like "Bros" a lot, but the rest of their music has had no hold on me. I'll admit I do like this one though. It's not as great as "Bros" was, but it's pretty solid.
Grizzly Bear - Mourning Sound (humanshazam, Extra #4) vs. The Killers - Tyson vs. Douglas (dm2081, Extra #5) - I don't like "Mourning Sound" as much as y'all do, but it's still decent. "Tyson vs. Douglas" was probably my favorite album track from Wonderful Wonderful.
Nickelback - The Betrayal (Act III) (dm2081, Extra #4) vs. Citizen - Jet (Green Baron, Extra #5) - "The Betrayal (Act III)" is a career best for Nickelback – I see some people voted against them, probably just by looking at Nickelback and going "nope!". "Jet" was really solid though. I would have voted it in any of the other above matchups.
Nickelback - Home (James, Extra #4) vs. K. Flay - Black Wave (Lordeftones Extra #5) - I honestly didn't even know K. Flay had an album out. She's another that does absolutely nothing for me. I thought "Black Wave" kind of sucked. "Home" is another I really liked from Nickelback's album, and it was the most immediate to me. It sounds like it could have been a big hit during their peak.
Algiers - Death March (Red, Extra #4) vs. Pinkshinyultrablast - Find Your Saint (peacebone, Extra #5) - Something about the lead singer's voice in Algiers reminds me of The Heavy – same kind of tone. I didn't like "Death March" as much as "The Underside of Power", but it was still solid. I've been liking more dreampop lately, but "Find Your Saint" was just okay to me.
Gravey ard Club - Diamond City (bangwave, Extra #4) vs. Partner - Play the Field (Pipa, Extra #5) - "Diamond City" was pretty cool for the first minute or so, but I sort of found myself tuning in and out for the rest of the song. It was decent. "Play the Field"'s verses were annoying, but the chorus was nice.

These Nickelback songs kick ass, so no excuses this time Remo Drive - Yer Killin Me (3Cheers, Extra #4) vs. Manolo Panic - Runaway (Octopuff in Kumquat, Extra #5) Both have pretty cool guitar vibes, but I just have to choose the wilder sounding one.The Quiet Hollers - Broken Guitar (Octopuff in Kumquat, Extra #4) vs. Wolf Alice - Heavenward (Red, Extra #5) Grizzly Bear - Mourning Sound (humanshazam, Extra #4) vs. The Killers - Tyson vs. Douglas (dm2081, Extra #5) These are both great songs, but I really loved "Mourning Sound" to the point of charting it.Nickelback - The Betrayal (Act III) (dm2081, Extra #4) vs. Citizen - Jet (Green Baron, Extra #5) "Jet" was good too, but I love me some Nickelback music.Nickelback - Home (James, Extra #4) vs. K. Flay - Black Wave (Lordeftones Extra #5) One of my favorites when I first heard the album. Thinking of charting this one next.Algiers - Death March (Red, Extra #4) vs. Pinkshinyultrablast - Find Your Saint (peacebone, Extra #5) I wish "Find Your Saint" had more NRG, but I liked the vocalworks.Graveyard Club - Diamond City (bangwave, Extra #4) vs. Partner - Play the Field (Pipa, Extra #5) Partner has that good 90's sound. deliciouss guitar solo, but ...here is where I jump into the time machine. for those interested? Clan Of Xymox also have new music. www.youtube.com/watch?v=KpgwH67jb9A

I think I would like those Nickelback songs better if Royal Blood did them..
Remo Drive - Yer Killin Me (3Cheers, Extra #4) vs. Manolo Panic - Runaway (Octopuff in Kumquat, Extra #5)
The Quiet Hollers - Broken Guitar (Octopuff in Kumquat, Extra #4) vs. Wolf Alice - Heavenward (Red, Extra #5)
Grizzly Bear - Mourning Sound (humanshazam, Extra #4) vs. The Killers - Tyson vs. Douglas (dm2081, Extra #5)
Nickelback - The Betrayal (Act III) (dm2081, Extra #4) vs. Citizen - Jet (Green Baron, Extra #5)
Nickelback - Home (James, Extra #4) vs. K. Flay - Black Wave (Lordeftones Extra #5) I should've picked Slow March as my K Flay song, it probably would've done better with the Alt crowd.
Algiers - Death March (Red, Extra #4) vs. Pinkshinyultrablast - Find Your Saint (peacebone, Extra #5)
Graveyard Club - Diamond City (bangwave, Extra #4) vs. Partner - Play the Field (Pipa, Extra #5)

Remo Drive - Yer Killin Me (3Cheers, Extra #4) vs. Manolo Panic - Runaway (Octopuff in Kumquat, Extra #5) Yer Killin Me is just the right amount of lyrically over-the-top and earnestly played to get my stamp of approval
The Quiet Hollers - Broken Guitar (Octopuff in Kumquat, Extra #4) vs. Wolf Alice - Heavenward (Red, Extra #5) Whoa, I'm going to have to check out Wolf Alice's album. Best song in this set (Mourning Sound is 2nd)
Grizzly Bear - Mourning Sound (humanshazam, Extra #4) vs. The Killers - Tyson vs. Douglas (dm2081, Extra #5)
Nickelback - The Betrayal (Act III) (dm2081, Extra #4) vs. Citizen - Jet (Green Baron, Extra #5)
Nickelback - Home (James, Extra #4) vs. K. Flay - Black Wave (Lordeftones Extra #5) Nickelback did nothing in these two songs to earn any generosity, sorrynotsorry. Though, I will say, dm picked the better one.
Algiers - Death March (Red, Extra #4) vs. Pinkshinyultrablast - Find Your Saint (peacebone, Extra #5) I love Algiers' whole sound--it's so unlike anything else I've heard (I guess the closest would be some of Foetus's bluesier stuff)
Graveyard Club - Diamond City (bangwave, Extra #4) vs. Partner - Play the Field (Pipa, Extra #5) Diamond City's a decent little indie new wave thing. I wanted to like Play The Field more but something about the stew of instrumental textures and the twee-ish vocal styling didn't mesh

I guess I should finish this while I have some free time...
Remo Drive - Yer Killin Me (3Cheers, Extra #4) vs. Manolo Panic - Runaway (Octopuff in Kumquat, Extra #5) (wanted to like that Remo Drive song more...has some elements that I like and normally appreciate a lot more)
The Quiet Hollers - Broken Guitar (Octopuff in Kumquat, Extra #4) vs. Wolf Alice - Heavenward (Red, Extra #5) ("Broken Guitar" didn't do much for me, honestly...which is surprising, because it's normally the kind of song I get into)
Grizzly Bear - Mourning Sound (humanshazam, Extra #4) vs. The Killers - Tyson vs. Douglas (dm2081, Extra #5) (And I 100% feel like I should like "Tyson vs. Douglas" more than I should; not a bad song at all, just doesn't grab me immediately...then again, "The Man" didn't grab me immediately, either)
Nickelback - The Betrayal (Act III) (dm2081, Extra #4) vs. Citizen - Jet (Green Baron, Extra #5) (I swear, I don't have any personal vendetta against Nickelback, they are plenty capable of making a good song...it's just that "Photograph" is hard to forgive; case in point, this was a tough vote)
Nickelback - Home (James, Extra #4) vs. K. Flay - Black Wave (Lordeftones Extra #5) ("Home" isn't too shabby, either, but "Black Wave" is probably my second favorite K.Flay song)
Algiers - Death March (Red, Extra #4) vs. Pinkshinyultrablast - Find Your Saint (peacebone, Extra #5) (peacebone, man, you're not making this easy...)
Graveyard Club - Diamond City (bangwave, Extra #4) vs. Partner - Play the Field (Pipa, Extra #5) (yep, "Diamond City" definitely sounds like something Tom would pick)

Pretty Boy Floyd - We Got The Power (Dr. Indie, Extra #4) vs. Seether - Count Me Out (janinho, Extra #5) Not the best Seether song out there, but I really wasn't digging the vocals on We Got the Power. I may have given that song the vote if I liked the singer's voice more though.
Japanese Breakfast - Boyish (peacebone, Extra #4) vs. Au Revoir Simone - Violent Yet Flammable World (bangwave, Extra #5) Both of these were kind of boring.
Grizzly Bear - Cut-Out (Daryl, Extra #4) vs. DIAMANTE - Sleepwalking (Dr. Indie, Extra, #5) Sleepwalking sounds like Flyleaf trying to make a Halestorm song and I wasn't super big on it, but at least it didn't put me to sleep like this Grizzly Bear song did (although I did like the bass on that one).
Bear's Den - Red Earth & Pouring Rain (Lordeftones Extra #4) vs. Vinyl Theatre - 30 Seconds (3Cheers, Extra #5) Breaking Up My Bones was one of my favorite songs from 2015, was never too big on 30 Seconds though. This Bear's Den song is great (though it already did pretty well in some other tournament), especially enjoying it on re-listen.
Rise Against - Welcome to the Breakdown (janinho, Extra #4) vs. DJ Shadow - Nobody Speak (humanshazam, Extra #5) Man randomizer did not make this one easy ;_;
Jet & the Bloody Beetroots - My Name is Thunder (Pipa, Extra #4) vs. Lissie - Blood and Muscle (James, Extra #5) Default vote for Lissie, I just really can't stand MNIT. I've heard better from Lissie, but this is okay.
Sorority Noise - A Portrait Of (Green Baron, Extra #4) vs. Brand New - Out of Mana (Daryl, Extra #5) Brand New's always hard to vote against. Feel like I should've liked the Sorority Noise song more than I did.

Hey is it too late to change my vote to Tyson vs. Douglas? That song has seeeeeriously grown on me recently.
