Blame it on Bad Brackets (Bayside Bracket) Bracket • Page 58

Boy vs. Landing Feet First
It's ironic because Landing Feet First literally just came up on shuffle on my phone, but I have to go with Boy. It has everything I want in a Bayside song. Emotional lyrics, a fast pace, and that Bayside tone we all know and love.

Blame it on Bad Luck vs. Killing Time
I mean, they're both amazing. Time just sits with me longer, especially the song's final line.

We have one close matchup here in the semifinal. It’s in your hands.

 

Winner of the bracket has to enter a final boss round with Prayers.

 

Boy
Blame it on bad luck

 

Side note. I am listening through TWW for the first time in full and holy shit that must have been some break up.

 

Self-titled break-up was worse, at least no one ended up with their head on a stake (just a plate)

 

The best Landing Feet First can do is tie now based on the remaining voters, and Blame It has officially been eliminated.

The next vote will determine if this round continues on or not.

 

oh no sorry thought I was up to date, what is the matchup I need to vote on?

 

No worries, things move fast in here!


Boy vs. Landing Feet First

Killing Time vs. Blame it on Bad Luck

 

Oh wow, close calls here

Ill go Boy and Blame It On Bad Luck (dont really love either song in this second choice but the matchup is what the matchup is)

 

That vote officially settles it, and we have our final matchup for the championship bracket!

Final scores for the semifinal:

Boy - 13
Landing Feet First - 8

Blame it on Bad Luck - 7
Killing Time - 14

This round will stay open as long as necessary to determine our champion.

 

This is a tough one, might take me a bit to make a decision

 

Boy.

I am probably the rarest Bayside fan in that I think Killing Time might be my least favorite album. I know everyone loves it but not my thing, I do enjoy it but Id rather hear another one of their albums.

 

No matter which one wins, I’ll be stoked for the winner and pissed that the other one lost. Lol

BOY.

 

I love the record, but I can actually kind of understand this. It’s a different feeling record than anything else in their catalogue. The songs are a lot glossier and more polished, which I think plays a big part in that.

 

I liked the first two and have casually checked out each since but they didn’t really stick. I used the bracket to re-evaluate and just came away with the same conclusion :/ definitely some gems tho, like my vote (killing time)

 

Actually yes one of the main reasons I don't like it is that I feel it's a little over produced for a bayside album. I also am so sick of hearing Already Gone and Sick Sick Sick played at shows but I do actually like a bunch of other tracks off of it.

 

I can totally understand that. I feel the same way about Sick, Sick, Sick in particular. Still enjoy the song, but I skip it more often than not nowadays.

Speaking to the production, I get it. A huge part of the reason I love S/T, Sirens, and TWW is because of how much more raw they feel, particularly the vocals.

 

Killing Time

 

I agree with all of this

 

Killing Time

 

Interesting final, not what I could have predicted. Killing Time rips but I'm going with the song that re-hooked me on Bayside after originally getting hooked during Sirens release...

Boy

 

Oops, missed the last round. I would've picked both songs that made it, so it's not that big of a deal. With that said...

Killing Time

 

It's crazy that the most recent stuff this band has done is an acoustic tour/album and Anthony did a solo show last weekend and then they put out a banger like "Prayers."
