I’ve never heard The Necks, but everyone’s positive comments about them make me hesitate so I’m not more conflicted in all this |

mostly easy this round, although screw The Field vs Stereolab when match-up 8 exists, still an easy choice there with Burial. Sorry Can, but Portishead are a true love and we only recently fell for each other
overall a decent selection and guess I'll just wait and see what comes next as I didn't understand the 5 artist elimination thing |

I would've voted for Can over the majority of the artists here, they just got the worst possible draw. The Cure are fine, even though I've actually voted against them twice so far (no, not R.E.M, Nina & Miles obviously). They shouldn't have made it this far. I just don't know MF Doom well at all, but their list of conquests is impressive, hmm.
yeah voting for Pig Destroyer is just as insane as voting for Slipknot here, for me. Slipknot are worse, but then Tobin > Burial and it's not close |
