That Walkman song is horrible; it reminds me of all the crappy songs I imagined myself writing when I was 14 after listening to the Strokes. I'm disappointed with you dear BEA community.

Yeah gotta go The Walkmen, not just because of the "oh wow" nostalgia moment all the way back in '04.

Goddamnit. I love both songs as much as anything in this tournament. I've interviewed The Walkmen, booked them once, and I've seen them perform The Rat live maybe 7 times. It's importance to me is simply too much to overcome.

Drums on The Rat are fantastic, dropping a vote for Walkmen

Both very good but I think I'll narrowly go with the Rat as it's probably a better stand alone track. My fav of the post-punk type tracks we've had so far.

BOTH great! Latter day Stereolab is really underrated. Saw them this summer and they were awesome!
