Creeper - Black Rain (3Cheers, #3) vs. Little India - Backseat (Dr. Indie, #6) "Black Rain" was really cool, but Little India has that Dreamcar vibe I love. That perfect Alt vibe to my ears. One of my favorite discoveries on youtube. Gang of Youths - The Heart is a Muscle (Green Baron, #3) vs. Wolf Alice - Don't Delete The Kisses (Lordeftones #6) Those vocals at the beginning of that Gang Of Youth, song, tuned me out big time. Wolf Alice sounds great. Why didn't I chart this? St. Vincent - Los Ageless (Daryl, #3) vs. Bay Ledges - Safe (Pipa, #6) Daryl the Beryl submitting female vocals. Got to vote for it just for that. :kii: 10 Years - Novacaine (janinho, #3) vs. A Silent Film - Lightning Strike (James, #6) Once again, a perfect Alternative vibe to my ears.
St Vincent - New York (bangwave, #3) vs. Slowdive - Everyone Knows (dm2081, #6) Guess I'll vote Slowdrive here. Mastodon - Steambreather (humanshazam, #3) vs. Leprous - Mirage (Red, #6) "Mirage" was interesting but not my cup of tea. Fazerdaze - Lucky Girl (peacebone, #3) vs. Death From Above 1979 - Freeze Me (humanshazam, #6) "Freeze Me" was one of the most underrated songs of 2017. Lucky Girl" had that vibe tho.. Very close.

Destroyer - Tinseltown Swimming in Blood (Daryl, Extra #3) vs. Somos - Strangers on the Train (Octopuff in Kumquat, Extra #6) Tinseltown Swimming in Blood was a good first listen too though.
Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes - Modern Ruin (Red, Extra #3) vs. In This Moment - Roots (dm2081, Extra #6) Hmmm I don't know, I think Roots would lose to a lot of Frank Carter songs, but not this one.
Makthaverskan - In My Dreams (peacebone, Extra #3) vs. Glassjaw - Closer (Red, Extra #6) Both decent first listens, more partial to the Mathkonversion song though.
Nothing More - Fadein/Fadeout (janinho, Extra #3) vs. Arcane Roots - Off the Floor (Green Baron, Extra #6) Fadein/Fadeout is pretty good, not sure why they didn't send that as second single instead of the shitshow that's charting now. I feel like I've heard some Arcane Roots song before that I like decently? (I think it's Curtains). This one is pretty good too. I like both, it's close.
The National - Nobody Else Will Be There (humanshazam, Extra #3) vs. Joywave - Shutdown (Lordeftones Extra #6) I feel like every song from the new National album has been in one of these tournaments except Turtleneck (which is probably the only one I'd vote for more often than not). But yeah I mean nothing I can say about this one I haven't already said about the National before. Really liking Shutdown though, I need to listen to their new album.
Phoebe Bridgers - Motion Sickness (Green Baron, Extra #3) vs. Beach Fossils - Tangerine (peacebone, Extra #6) I like Motion Sickness a lot. Tangerine was a pretty pleasant first listen though.
Rina Sawayama - Alterlife (Octopuff in Kumquat, Extra #3) vs. DMA'S - Dawning (Pipa, Extra #6) Dawning was a good first listen, but still nothing on Rina

Updated my picks. Some great first listens from Drindie and Pipa that unfortunately got shafted .

Makthaverskan - In My Dreams (peacebone, Extra #3) vs. Glassjaw - Closer (Red, Extra #6) (well, "In My Dreams" definitely sounds like something peacebone would submit...doesn't make this vote easier, for sure)
Nothing More - Fadein/Fadeout (janinho, Extra #3) vs. Arcane Roots - Off the Floor (Green Baron, Extra #6)
The National - Nobody Else Will Be There (humanshazam, Extra #3) vs. Joywave - Shutdown (Lordeftones Extra #6)

Destroyer - Tinseltown Swimming in Blood (Daryl, Extra #3) vs. Somos - Strangers on the Train (Octopuff in Kumquat, Extra #6)(I remember Spectrum Pulse raving about Ken and I don’t really get the hype. I prefer the other song) Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes - Modern Ruin (Red, Extra #3) vs. In This Moment - Roots (dm2081, Extra #6) (This was a tough one but I’m starting to not like Roots as much as I used to and I really enjoy most of what I’ve heard from Frank Carter) Makthaverskan - In My Dreams (peacebone, Extra #3) vs. Glassjaw - Closer (Red, Extra #6) (These we’re both great first listens but I actually saved In My Dreams to my Spotify) Nothing More - Fadein/Fadeout (janinho, Extra #3) vs. Arcane Roots - Off the Floor (Green Baron, Extra #6)(These are both pretty good and both I feel go in too long but I’m giving the upper hand to Arcane Roots) The National - Nobody Else Will Be There (humanshazam, Extra #3) vs. Joywave - Shutdown (Lordeftones Extra #6)(I’m going against the grain here. This is not one of my favorites on Sleep Well Beast And it’s sounds like The National On auto-pilot imo. Shutdown on the other hand it’s one of the best cuts from this new Joywave album, great song) Phoebe Bridgers - Motion Sickness (Green Baron, Extra #3) vs. Beach Fossils - Tangerine (peacebone, Extra #6) (These both sounded pretty pleasant. Motion Sickness is really growing on me a lot and i think I might check out Phoebe Bridgers other stuff. This is my second time hearing Tangerine and I enjoy it.) Rina Sawayama - Alterlife (Octopuff in Kumquat, Extra #3) vs. DMA'S - Dawning (Pipa, Extra #6) (Between this and Take Me As I Am, I can safely say that wheatsquares33 has fueled my new obsession. This was love at first listen and I’m currently spinning her album. This exactly my cup of tea. Dawning was alright but it didn’t stand much of a chance against Afterlife)

It's one of my favorite pick hits of 2017 Not even by one vote as my vote included makes it a tie broken by seed. Soon as I heard those guitars I was hooked.

Destroyer - Tinseltown Swimming in Blood (Daryl, Extra #3) vs. Somos - Strangers on the Train (Octopuff in Kumquat, Extra #6) I really enjoyed the music from Destroyer's song. Music seemed a bit too 80's for Daryl the Beryl , but still a good pick. Somos' was a good song too. If you combine band's name with song title, you got "We are Strangers on the train". Somos is the Spanish conjunction for "we are" Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes - Modern Ruin (Red, Extra #3) vs. In This Moment - Roots (dm2081, Extra #6) Makthaverskan - In My Dreams (peacebone, Extra #3) vs. Glassjaw - Closer (Red, Extra #6) Great sound. This is the Alt guitar vibe I love. Even more with female vocals. Strange name for a band.. Any story behind that name? Nothing More - Fadein/Fadeout (janinho, Extra #3) vs. Arcane Roots - Off the Floor (Green Baron, Extra #6) This is the track I thought would have made a better single #2? The National - Nobody Else Will Be There (humanshazam, Extra #3) vs. Joywave - Shutdown (Lordeftones Extra #6) You guys really like this National band don't you? "Shutdown" sounds like a Joywave song I would end up charting? I think it's better than "Doubt" Phoebe Bridgers - Motion Sickness (Green Baron, Extra #3) vs. Beach Fossils - Tangerine (peacebone, Extra #6) If I did a AAA chart, that song would be in my top 10. Sounds like the Wall Flowers. That other song sounds a bit too "Earthy" for me. Like a AAA beach vibe? Rina Sawayama - Alterlife (Octopuff in Kumquat, Extra #3) vs. DMA'S - Dawning (Pipa, Extra #6) Electropop done right. The guitars give it the kick I need. DMA's very cool Adult Alternative from the 90's.

Makthaverskan - In My Dreams (peacebone, Extra #3) vs. Glassjaw - Closer (Red, Extra #6)
Nothing More - Fadein/Fadeout (janinho, Extra #3) vs. Arcane Roots - Off the Floor (Green Baron, Extra #6)...don't like having to cast the deciding vote on a matchup of similar level 1st listens, but to break the tie I ask WW Induldge Do?

Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes - Modern Ruin (Red, Extra #3) vs. In This Moment - Roots (dm2081, Extra #6) I might have chosen Frank & The Rattlesnakes, cuz some of thier songs rock. Leave it to Red to choose a one minute ballad from this band. ...in what universe is "Modern Ruin" a ballad? There's two songs on the album a minute long or under. The title track isn't one of them.

JR JR - Control (Secretly Sorry) (Pipa, Extra #3) vs. Royal Blood - How Did We Get So Dark? (janinho, Extra #6) Didn't really like the JR JR song (cool synthlines, but the vocals were annoying), but the Royal Blood was really good...probably would burn on me fast like the rest of the songs I've heard from their new album have though.
Broken Social Scene - Skyline (dm2081, Extra #3) vs. Trentemoller - Complicated (bangwave, Extra #6) I do like Skyline a good bit, but Complicated was a really good first listen and is more my type of music, so I'll give it the vote.
Marmozets - Play (Dr. Indie, Extra, #3) vs. Gang of Youths - What Can I Do If the Fire Goes Out? (Daryl, Extra #6) Didn't care for Play very much, but the Gang of Youths song was just as good as everything else I've heard from them.
LCD Soundsystem - tonite (3Cheers, Extra #3) vs. Angel Nation - Burn The Witch (Dr. Indie, Extra, #6) I feel like I like Tonite more this time around than the first. Burn the Witch is okay instrumentally, the vocals don't do too much for me though, just sound too much like typical female power metal.
Night Riots - Don't Kill The Messenger (bangwave, Extra #3) vs. Father John Misty - Total Entertainment Forever (humanshazam, Extra #6) I do like Don't Kill the Messenger a good bit, but I feel like it's already been in one of these tournaments a couple times, and it's up against FJM.
Pond - Paint Me Silver (Lordeftones Extra #3) vs. Red - Still Alive (James, Extra #6) Paint Me Silver was a pretty pleasant first listen though.
Acceptance - Haunted (James, Extra #3) vs. Temples - Mystery Of Pop (3Cheers, Extra #6) Both decent first listens

JR JR - Control (Secretly Sorry) (Pipa, Extra #3) vs. Royal Blood - How Did We Get So Dark? (janinho, Extra #6)...prefer RB but I'll give a pity vote here
Broken Social Scene - Skyline (dm2081, Extra #3) vs. Trentemoller - Complicated (bangwave, Extra #6)...any band that sounds like The Cure is right up my alley
Marmozets - Play (Dr. Indie, Extra, #3) vs. Gang of Youths - What Can I Do If the Fire Goes Out? (Daryl, Extra #6)...both good 1st listens
LCD Soundsystem - tonite (3Cheers, Extra #3) vs. Angel Nation - Burn The Witch (Dr. Indie, Extra, #6)...would've submitted this one if 3Cheers hadn't
Night Riots - Don't Kill The Messenger (bangwave, Extra #3) vs. Father John Misty - Total Entertainment Forever (humanshazam, Extra #6)...any song that sounds like Depeche Mode is right up my alley
Pond - Paint Me Silver (Lordeftones Extra #3) vs. Red - Still Alive (James, Extra #6)...meh
Acceptance - Haunted (James, Extra #3) vs. Temples - Mystery Of Pop (3Cheers, Extra #6)...I think I should be listening to more Temples
