Bracket Of The Year (Story Of The Year Bracket) Bracket • Page 38

The Eternal Battle for Mike Cronin’s Soul (this hurt)
A Part of Me (sorry Bang Bang, but a good number two cannot beat a great number one)
Wolves / How Can We Go On (Ryan's guitar solo alone could crush almost any other song on here)
Youth / I Swear, I’m Okay (Praying for Rain just ain't that epic as an extremely hyped up epic closer)

 

Miracle Bang Wolves Youth

 

Miracle
A Part of me (this song still gets better with every listen)
How can we go on (the song itself is pretty standard SOTY, but the solo is one of Ryan's best)
Youth/I swear (PFR is great, so this was a hard one. I just love Youth too much)

 

Wow, this bracket has some big upsets.

The rain sounds leading into another slow burn verse? All but three songs on the album have the slowed down low energy verses so it's really just more of the same in this song. Part of Me and Miracle does the soft verses better IMO.

 

Correct and correct. The ending of Praying for Rain from the guitar solo on shows what the song could have been though.

 

Noooo That slow guitar and fans first lines “I found an angel near the edge...” and so on. I love that opening

 

Praying For Rain is still their best album closer.

 

FTFY

 

I'll always agree Dan sounds great and his lyrics are awesome. I still think its just more of the same. If they didn't slow down the song for every verse on this album, this one might stick out more but it just doesn't

 

There is no way that is correct. If this were their first album I'd agree with you though

 

QFT

REPORTED

 

Double reported

 

I'm good with it, I stand by PFR being a GOAT closer.

 

From best to worst closer:

Praying For Rain
Welcome to Our New War
Razorblades(10 Year PA version)
Falling Down
Is This My Fate
Eye For An Eye

 

Current Totals:

The Eternal Battle For Mike Cronin’s Soul - 4
Miracle - 9

A Part Of Me - 6
Bang Bang - 7

My Home - 2
Wolves/How Can We Go On - 11

Youth/I Swear, I’m Okay - 10
Praying For Rain - 3

 

We'll have to see here PFR ranks on the album, but Fate and New War won their brackets right?

 

No, The Antidote won the bracket for The Black Swan I believe

 

Reptilian is the best closer of any album(imo)

Praying for Rain leaves something to be desired.

 

Oh that's right! It was super close though right? Anyway, PRF is going to get knocked out by Swear so that settles it

 

Yeah, it was pretty close!
