Ghost - Faith (Red, #1) vs. Sleep - Marijuanaut's Theme (humanshazam, #8) Faith is good. I'm always good with Ghost. I've tried getting into Sleep but just can't. The guitar solo on this track was pretty good though.
Grayson Erhard – Driving in the Rain (wheatsquares33, #1) vs. Unknown Mortal Orchestra - Hunnybee (Lordeftones #8) I never got on board the Unknown Mortal Orchestra hype train.
Jungle - Happy Man (Daryl, #1) vs. The 1975 - Give Yourself A Try (BlurryFaceKyle, #8) Happy Man is kind of a weak Jungle song, but I really dislike GYAT.
tricot - potage (disassociative, #1) vs. LUC - Glow (Pipa, #8) Ooh I didn't know Tricot had a new single out. I like Tricot a good bit, but I've heard better from them. I liked Glow a lot on first listen, so it's close here. I kind of want to support Tricot because I like the band and don't feel like they will pull out a win, but I really liked Glow so it gets my vote.
Albert Hammond Jr - Far Away Truths (bangwave, #1) vs. Lingua Nada - Hypertension (disassociative, #8) Love Far Away Truths. Hypertension was an interesting first listen, I liked it once it picked up about halfway through, but the vocals were rough throughout.
Ghost - Rats (Dr. Indie, #1) vs. nêhiyawak - somnambulist (lyhom, #8) Somnambulist was a very good first listen. Too bad it's up against Rats.
Fiddlehead - Lay Low (lyhom, #1) vs. Big Something - Waves (jamesflame, #8) Both good first listens, I'd say my favorites of this round.

Preliminary Round 1I'm going to try to keep preliminaries to 24 hours, but not sure how that's going to work. I finally have a job over here, so I have a little less free time than usual, so it really depends on how my schedule works out. If one day for each round is not long enough I can extend it to two, just let me know. Please keep it to two days. At least until we're done with prelims for Az' tourney.

A great first showing. Not one song that I didn't dig in one way or another. Ghost - Faith (Red, #1) vs. Sleep - Marijuanaut's Theme (humanshazam, #8) I wasn't expecting this match to be much of a challenge, but damn Sleep gives Ghost a run for their money with that fierce Guitar solo. Both jams have a strong Heavy Metal vibe, but I prefer Papa Ghost's vocals. Grayson Erhard – Driving in the Rain (wheatsquares33, #1) vs. Unknown Mortal Orchestra - Hunnybee (Lordeftones #8) Melody reminded me of Drive" from Incubus. Hunnybee has ,what I still consider; cool Indiepop ,vibe. There is till plenty of guitars and 80's vibe for me to prefer this song. Jungle - Happy Man (Daryl, #1) vs. The 1975 - Give Yourself A Try (BlurryFaceKyle, #8) previewed this one months back on Weekly adds thread. It's a good song, but it's up against one of my favorite Indiepoprock bands out now. "Give Yourself A Try" might not be the strongest ; The 1975, songs, and it looks like they abused every drug known to man, in the music video, but it still wins my heart with the melodic guitars. tricot - potage (disassociative, #1) vs. LUC - Glow (Pipa, #8) All female indierock band, already winning points with me. Even more points for being foreign indierock. More female vocals. Hot damn, this one is even better. Don't know much about LUC, but I know I love the bass and guitar action in this. Sounds like something I would expect from Prince. Albert Hammond Jr - Far Away Truths (bangwave, #1) vs. Lingua Nada - Hypertension (disassociative, #8) This is that song that has the Strokes vibe. Geez, I wonder why? Ghost - Rats (Dr. Indie, #1) vs. nêhiyawak - somnambulist (lyhom, #8) Not many songs will get me to go against my Favorite Rock song of the year. Two very different vibes here, but I think I'm going with Fierce 80's Metal style. Fiddlehead - Lay Low (lyhom, #1) vs. Big Something - Waves (jamesflame, #8) "Lay Low" is a cool song. The secret here is waiting for the intro of "Waves" to pass. That's when the 80's vibe take over. Parts of this song, sounds like it could be a Police: song off 'Synchronicity". Guitar solo sealed the deal.

Alright, so I'm back. Ghost - Faith (Red, #1) vs. Sleep - Marijuanaut's Theme (humanshazam, #8) (just had to put my #1 up against a shazam pick, eh, randomizer? Sigh...and even better, it's Sleep...randomizer, you're not very fun) Grayson Erhard – Driving in the Rain (wheatsquares33, #1) vs. Unknown Mortal Orchestra - Hunnybee (Lordeftones #8) ("Driving in the Rain" has a quite nice groove going for it...and so does "Hunnybee"! Okay, so you're basically making me choose between two tight grooves...randomizer continues to do the most with these matchups) Jungle - Happy Man (Daryl, #1) vs. The 1975 - Give Yourself A Try (BlurryFaceKyle, #8) (the only matchup where I was 100% familiar with both songs before the tournament, and it was a pretty easy choice, honestly) tricot - potage (disassociative, #1) vs. LUC - Glow (Pipa, #8) (a lot to take in with "potage", admittedly, does some really interesting things instrumentally...there have been a lot of fun little grooves in this round, and "Glow" is yet another fun groove...tough one, honestly, but I'll give a "pity" vote to tricot) Albert Hammond Jr - Far Away Truths (bangwave, #1) vs. Lingua Nada - Hypertension (disassociative, #8) ("Far Away Truths" somehow sounded more like a Strokes song than I expected, it's quite catchy...I also liked "Hypertension" and liked its twist and turns, though not quite as much) Ghost - Rats (Dr. Indie, #1) vs. nêhiyawak - somnambulist (lyhom, #8) (randomizer, stahp) Fiddlehead - Lay Low (lyhom, #1) vs. Big Something - Waves (jamesflame, #8) (two solid discoveries, though I will readily admit that "Waves" interested me more)

CHVRCHES - My Enemy (American Idiot, #1) vs. Poppy – Metal (wheatsquares33, #8) (there's a reason I chose My Enemy for March Madness...I had kind of forgotten about it a bit, admittedly, but I still love it..."Metal" is alright, but this is quite the tough matchup for it)
A Perfect Circle - Disillusioned (Lordeftones #1) vs. Idles - Colossus (Red, #8) (not a #1 I wanted to go up against, though I suppose it could have still been worse...make sure to listen to all of "Colossus", by the way)
Bastille - Quarter Past Midnight (BlurryFaceKyle, #1) vs. Remo Drive - Yer Killin' Me (American Idiot, #8) ("Quarter Past Midnight" is better than "World Gone Mad", at least...kind of a bore, though, they've done better..."Yer Killin' Me" is fine, not great, but worthy of a listen, to be sure)
W3apons - Off the Top of My Heart (Pipa, #1) vs. Kobra and The Lotus - Velvet Roses (Dr. Indie, #8) (I imagine Doc might have a tough time with this matchup...I did not have as tough of a time)
Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Anthem for No State (humanshazam, #1) vs. Greta Van Fleet - When The Curtain Falls (janinho, #8) (I was hoping for a little more growth from Greta Van Fleet than what they've given us on "When the Curtain Falls"...they entrenched themselves as a Zeppelin tribute band, rather than aspire to be something more...not like it would have had much of a shot against "Anthem for No State" for me, anyway)
Ghost - Dance Macabre (janinho, #1) vs. Father John Misty - Mr. Tillman (Daryl, #8) (I said in STM that "Dance Macabre" is one of my least favorite songs on Prequelle, but I do still like it..."Mr. Tillman" is also good, one of my favorites of FJM...I might change this vote, for the record)
The Tangent - Two Rope Swings (jamesflame, #1) vs. US Girls - Pearly Gates (bangwave, #8) ("Two Rope Swings" is great...but this matchup is quite unfortunate)

CHVRCHES - My Enemy (American Idiot, #1) vs. Poppy – Metal (wheatsquares33, #8) Real tough round, Metal was a great first listen.
A Perfect Circle - Disillusioned (Lordeftones #1) vs. Idles - Colossus (Red, #8) Are we not getting another single from APC?
Bastille - Quarter Past Midnight (BlurryFaceKyle, #1) vs. Remo Drive - Yer Killin' Me (American Idiot, #8)
W3apons - Off the Top of My Heart (Pipa, #1) vs. Kobra and The Lotus - Velvet Roses (Dr. Indie, #8)
Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Anthem for No State (humanshazam, #1) vs. Greta Van Fleet - When The Curtain Falls (janinho, #8) Nothing really happens in Anthem for No State, I was expecting something epic to begin but it never did.
Ghost - Dance Macabre (janinho, #1) vs. Father John Misty - Mr. Tillman (Daryl, #8) I imagine this will be a #1 on Active charts very soon
The Tangent - Two Rope Swings (jamesflame, #1) vs. US Girls - Pearly Gates (bangwave, #8)

Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Anthem for No State (humanshazam, #1) vs. Greta Van Fleet - When The Curtain Falls (janinho, #8) I was expecting Anthem to either get really bad or really good but it did neither. 15 minutes long and it didn't really go anywhere. Also up against Greta, though.

I had completed my votes and not yet submitted when Chrome crashed :'D
CHVRCHES - My Enemy (American Idiot, #1) vs. Poppy – Metal (wheatsquares33, #8) I love My Enemy, but it's going to win anyway so I'm voting for my own song. Noble loss on my part though.
A Perfect Circle - Disillusioned (Lordeftones #1) vs. Idles - Colossus (Red, #8) Colossus was generally a good first listen too, but I wasn't a big fan of the hook.
Bastille - Quarter Past Midnight (BlurryFaceKyle, #1) vs. Remo Drive - Yer Killin' Me (American Idiot, #8) I liked the Remo Drive song decently, can't stand Quarter Past Midnight.
W3apons - Off the Top of My Heart (Pipa, #1) vs. Kobra and The Lotus - Velvet Roses (Dr. Indie, #8) This is tough (and I know it probably will be for Indie too), very good first listens both. I liked the early 80s arena rock sound of Off the Top of My Heart, but that chorus on Velvet Roses!
Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Anthem for No State (humanshazam, #1) vs. Greta Van Fleet - When The Curtain Falls (janinho, #8) Never been much of a Godspeed guy, but also not too hot on the new Greta single.
Ghost - Dance Macabre (janinho, #1) vs. Father John Misty - Mr. Tillman (Daryl, #8) I love both of these songs and artists, as well as their most recent albums. I think I like Mr. Tillman slightly more than Dance Macabre though.
The Tangent - Two Rope Swings (jamesflame, #1) vs. US Girls - Pearly Gates (bangwave, #8) Expected this to be a runaway for Pearly Gates since I love that song, but Two Rope Swings is probably my favorite first listen of the round.

CHVRCHES - My Enemy (American Idiot, #1) vs. Poppy – Metal (wheatsquares33, #8) Poppy's song sounded a lot like Devo with female vocals. "My Enemy" didn't work for me at all.
A Perfect Circle - Disillusioned (Lordeftones #1) vs. Idles - Colossus (Red, #8) "Disillusioned" was a decent listen.. "Colossus" is way too advanced for my style.
Bastille - Quarter Past Midnight (BlurryFaceKyle, #1) vs. Remo Drive - Yer Killin' Me (American Idiot, #8) I burnt out on that Bastille song way too fast. "Yer Killin' Me" is quite uptempo.
W3apons - Off the Top of My Heart (Pipa, #1) vs. Kobra and The Lotus - Velvet Roses (Dr. Indie, #8)
"Off the Top of My Head" was a very ;Bryan Adams sounding, awesome first listen. Download? check. Few songs can make me go against fierce ,Female, Metal vibes.
Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Anthem for No State (humanshazam, #1) vs. Greta Van Fleet - When The Curtain Falls (janinho, #8) This is a monster #1 song just waiting to happen.
Ghost - Dance Macabre (janinho, #1) vs. Father John Misty - Mr. Tillman (Daryl, #8) Not even a prayer can save Father John Misty from Papa Ghost. At least not for me
The Tangent - Two Rope Swings (jamesflame, #1) vs. US Girls - Pearly Gates (bangwave, #8) The music video for "Pearly Gates" had some disturbing religious images. I'd rather music videos stay away from religious images all together, but the song is way more up my alley.
