Cat Empire has the cooler name, but Grouper has the cooler tune.

I'll go with Chariot. That was a fun track. Grouper didn't really hit me on a first listen.

i'm probably missing something. i would walk out of the club if they started playing that cat empire track. not really vibing on this "fun" track at all.

grouper puts on a great show and is one of the few ambient artists i've seen pack a theater to capacity. that's not a feat to take lightly.

Grouper, with a degree of reluctance. Neither are obvious karaoke choices.

That Cat Empire track might be my least favourite thing in this tournament.

Am I the only one who's surprised the ska escaped from the 20th century. I had no idea.

"Heavy Water/I'd Rather Be Sleeping" is ethereal bliss. The choice is obvious.

And with each wave it gets worse! (with the big exception being Op Ivy. God I love them.)

I'm usually not a lyrical guy, but this is one of the better metaphors about love I think I've heard.

Oh, and the music is incredible too.
