Ex:Re was the best find for me from this whole tournament. Romance isn't even the best song on this album, but it's still an easy vote for me.

Now this one is really tough. Not that it matters. Voidz is dealing with with being associated with a band that is way past its expiration date even though its take on indie rock is fresh and innovative and not quite anything I've heard on a Strokes album before. One of my favorite albums from last year.

Meanwhile, Ex:Re is harnassing the power of peak 90s Cat Power. That's pretty awesome too. I worship Cat Power far more than The Strokes who I thought only had one essential album.

Anyways, both great. Will probably vote vor The Voidz since I played that album a shitload in my car last year.

I should also point out that Pyramid of Bones is one of the weaker songs on this album imo. - it kind of sounds like The Arctic Monkeys which isn't a compliment.

Ex:Re it is.


Nevermind. I love this song. lol. Context changes every thing.

Difficult choice between two great songs. I'm going with Romance.

I like Pyramid of Bones but yes... in a 2002-kind of way. Despite the allusions to early Cat Power and the almost Trentemoller-style minimalist-melancholy-electronic beats, "Romance" is timeless. And just a truly beautiful song no matter when (or where) you turn in.

Do I exist? That's a good question. Do any of us actually exist?

Toughie here... like 'em both. In the end, it's a narrow lean toward romance.
