I LOVE the albums that Saoirse fielded, but GOOD GOD ALMIGHTY, Norman, I'm fucking speechless.

1980. There's no way in hell I'm voting against The Cure, Magazine, Swell Maps & the Monochrome Set. That's the stuff dreams are made of, people! Very Happy

Fuck, I saw Saoirse's picks and thought my vote was definitely going that way, then I scrolled down to Norman's which are equally good if not better...

Leaning towards Norman and 1980 but very very tight, need to do some listening.

Gonna be hard to vote against Radio Dept. and Unicorns, but I feel like Norm's team is probably more consistently good.

Leaning 03 just because Who Will Cut Our Hair is one of my absolute favorite albums ever, but gonna take some time to decide.

I'm surprised 2003 is losing here (by so much). It has some of the finest selections of the tourney thus far including Califone's Quicksand/Cradlesnakes which is easily one of the best albums ever released. That's also not to forget other brilliant choices like Shins, Unicorns, etc. I was listening to both Unicorns and Islands the other day.

Hm, 80's pretty great, but it's a bit more of a one note team than 03 this time. Plus Unicorns is great, and I love to see The Rapture on the singles team. Leaning towards 03 (which isn't totally shocking, wouldn't mind 03 winning the whole thing, frankly, just a great great year)

C'mon Saoirse, you didn't even play You Are Free against me?

Voting for myself then.

(joking, nice team, still voting for myself because I've never heard about fair play)

1980 because the 2003 selection didn't have a single good album or song. Shocked 1980 does have things I like

I may have to flip a coin. Saoirse found away to my heart with those Califone and Radio Dept albums, but Norman's team is ridiculous and consistently stuff I love.
