Ya, it's a really weird mix. Antlers are a bit more folk, and the Byrds are a bit more country, but they both have rock aspecs. And as you said, it's comparing a legend to a little known band 😕

Voting for Antlers though, cause Hospice is better than any Byrd album. But it's a really close call.

Quite a lot of bands "influenced" Led Zeppelin... :wink:

That is true.

But the Antlers were not one of them 😎

Shankly, As I stated in a previous thread before we even started the game, the only fair way for me to group the teams was to randomise it. As i state here -

Brand new single. Completely different direction but equally awesome.

Hospice is a very good album, and the lyrics and storytelling are top-notch. But I need more than one good album before I can put them over The Byrds, who achieved an iconic status.

I'm really pushing for The Antlers' continued success over the next years though.

The Antlers, because Hospice is THE most moving album ever recorded. For the many who haven't heard it, please take the time to listen in its entirety.
