Oh damn, only doing two waves of results? Yeah because the album is only 10 tracks long.

Oh wow, I completely forgot to do North Corridor, shoot. Doubt I would've changed much though, Joyride and Punchline would be my top 2 most likely.
May or may not do Black Mile. As much as I like Manchester Orchestra, this album's just super bland to me and The Gold and The Moth are the only songs from it that have actually held up on repeated listens, but I don't know I might revisit it again to see if it grows on me as a whole.

Last chance to vote for How to be a Human Being due to the 78-week rule! Manchester Orchestra will be another first time listen for me. Who's that "How To Be Human" album from? as for the Chevelle rankings. I didn't care for "Punchline" one bit, but "Warhol's Showbiz" was really interesting. "Joyride" was the most radio friendly song on the alum tho. Good choice for #1. *I keep forgetting Franz Ferdinand's album is out. I'll vote for that one next time.

This album may not have done that well longevity-wise, but it's proven it has it's fans, as we rank A Black Mile to the Surface next. Eliminated from the ballot are albums from Converge, Leprous and Spoon. ...those better be returning right away.

Shit I didn't see that I *really* should've done the North Corridor one then, I would've voted for Leprous and Spoon definitely.

I listened to Manchester Orchestra's album twice, but just couldn't get into it. Just seemed to sleepy compared to their previous releases. I'll give it another try for this rankdown though.

Hey, I actually submitted for this one! This is my first album RD here since One More Light, lol.
Insanely solid album. I even like my #11 here. My top 4 or 5 are phenomenal, while the rest is still really good. Underrated album.

I'm going to have to sit this one out. I figured maybe a third listen would help like this album better. Unfortunately, besides a couple of songs, I just can't get into it which makes it super difficult to rank.

The album is so seamless I can never tell when the next song begins so this was hard to rank. Not a bad song on the record though.

There are a songs here; I did enjoy. The current single has it's moments. I like the way "The Moth" starts off and keeps a steady guitar vibe all the way through. His vocals sound good here. "Lead SD" is also quite upbeat. "The Sunshine" wasn't so bad, cuz it was short. These types of songs should be short. "The Wolf" had interesting percussion. I was hoping it would pick up, but it never did. The rest was kind of a task to get through. It sounds folky. Even tho someone will say it's not folk.
Hopefully we can do something like DREAMCAR, MGMT or Franz Ferdinand next? Or something fierce like Nickelback or Royal Blood. I'm tired of these "slow jobs"

FYI, we're ranking The National after this before we do our next retro album rankdown. The National tied with The War on Drugs with 9 votes but the former has more cumulative votes. MGMT got 8 votes, a very strong result considering a lack of hit single and the fact that it is only it's first ballot.

My last song appearing early. Not bad considering I don't know what is thought of as "cool" from this band, but that song bored me into a slight coma. BTW, what's with the red colors on Greenbaron's album submission? Can I invite some of my friends to submit albums too.
