Taking Back Sunday Band • Page 71

So far last two album rounds have surprised me on how they went, it's safe to say you can't really call anything lol

 

Alright everyone it's time to close this round and thd Self Titled bracket. Two great songs, but we have a clear winner. Here are your final scores:

This Is All Now-17
Call Me In The Morning-11

This will see This Is All Now move on to the Champions Bracket, and Call Me In The Morning have to duke it out with Call Come Running, Flicker Fade, and the rest of the runner ups to come in the Wild Card bracket. The divisive New Again is up next as we reach the pre reunion era. It will be up in a moment

 

Alright everyone, welcome to the TAKING BACK SUNDAY FACE OFF. This will be NCAA style matches, with randomly generated brackets for each album facing off to decide which is the winner of each album. At the end of all of the albums, we'll do a finale Champions Bracket to decide the best overall TBS song. We will start off with Tidal Wave and work our way backwards. Here are the rules:

1. Voting will take place over 10-24 hour period, depending on How close the matches are(if there's a wide margin too far to beat the round may be run ruled to not waste time).
2. You must vote on every match in a round. If you don't your other votes don't count. Jut reply to this thread with your choices. I will not vote unless there is a tie needed to be broken.
3. Feel free to discuss why you chose one song over the other and why you like that song. It's what helps keeps these fun!
4. I avoid byes into rounds if I can, but sometimes it's necessary. These are randomly generated I do not pick them.

And with that, let's begin.

Hi all,
New to the site, buuut since TBS is one of my favorite bands and this bracket is a cool idea, I figured I'd get in on the fun. I'd like to see this done for Brand New if it hasn't been already.
Anyway, fwiw, I'd like to weigh in on the last 3 albums-

(TW) YCLB is a great song, but Fences or CCR are miles better and I Felt It Too deserved more love (that build-up at the end tho)
(HI) I would've gone with BHAG as well. That song gets me every time still.
(S/T) This could've gone to This Is All Now or Best Places and I would've been satisfied. CMITM is a great song, but it gets too much credit IMO.

For this round:
Carpathia (This was tough but that last chorus of Carpathia steals it)
Long Time Comin'
Lonely Lonely (again, tough because I like that CK is in 7/4 and I saw the current line-up play it in 2013 and John killed it, but Mark's drumming on Lonely Lonely is fucking great)
Swing
Sink Into Me

 

welcome to the madness!
