Empty House
Man

 

Hey guys. Don't mean to interrupt this awesome game,

You all may know @BTDandFeelingThis our resident nice guy and the original bracket game runner. He is developing plans to run another bracket game for Linkin Park in RIP Chester in a sort of charity for suicide prevention in the hardly used Linkin Park thread. If anyone here is interested in playing, let the man know.

 

Empty House

Flower

 

This is getting very difficult.

Empty House
Man

 

Marigold
Man

 

Empty House and Flower for me.

Both sets of lyrics have a tragic and fragile beauty underlining them.

 

Early results thus far...

Empty house (4)
Marigold (2)

Man (3)
Flower (3)

 

Empty House
Man

Probably my two favourite songs on the album.

 

Planning to close this tonight and start the finals and will stay open until tomorrow evening where we will start Collapsible Lung.

I'm currently prepping the rest of the starting brackets.

 

Calling it now, Don't Blink and Collapsible Lung will be the final two.

 

Luckily the bracket generated in a way that does allow that. Remember, it's random. They could have faced off in the first round. But, spoiler alert, that out come is possible.

 

Empty House
Man

Too many threads to keep up with, and now we are starting Linkin Park too aghhh

 

Seeing Matt play Empty House live is an experience I will forever remember and love

 

Aren't there only 3 currently?

 

3 is a lot for me! Thankfully with Relient K and TBS, I've listened to all of their albums so much that I can vote without revisiting. Linkin Park will be a little more difficult except for the first 3 albums

 

Empty House
Man

 

Current results.....

Empty house (7)
Marigold (2)

Man (6)
Flower (3)

Looking at closing polls in the next couple hours to kick off the finals.

 

This is turning out very nicely. Proud of this thread's taste.

 

Empty House and Man are two Kenny favorites. Though I think Local Construction is my favorite.

 

And this is the final score.

This moves Empty House and Man to the finals. What will win? What will be set aside for the runner up bracket?

Empty House vs. Man

Go

 

This round will be open until tomorrow afternoon. When I get off work I will call it and begin Collapsible Lung.

 

Oh shit. I don't know if I can do this

Even though I think Man is a significantly better written song technically and is one of my favorites

The impact Empty House has on me every single time I've listened to it is too big to ignore.

Empty House for me

 

Empty House

 

The first time I heard Man, I received the news that my cousin had passed away from an aggressive form of brain cancer. I know the song is not about dying, but just the idea of time speeding up and not being a kid anymore really resonated with me in that moment. I think of him and his brave fight very fondly whenever I hear the song.

So ya it's Man for me.

 

Dang I missed the third round.. oh well Marigold had no chance.

Empty House vs. Man
-Man
I would be happy Man winning even though it's not my favorite. That song brings a great representation of what I love about Relient K/AFF.
