Round of 32: (9) Against Me! - Transgender Dysphoria Bluesvs.(24) The Beatles - Abbey Road Bracket

Round one is here. 32 winners of the previous round. What album will come out on top?

NOTICE: PLEASE DO NOT VOTE UNLESS YOU'VE HEARD BOTH ALBUMS. STOP DOING THIS SHIT.

For this matchup, we start with:

(9) Against Me! - Transgender Dysphoria Blues

vs.

(24) The Beatles - Abbey Road

 

against me has never fully clicked for me, though this is pretty clearly their best. unfortunately it's against the best of the beatles. abbey road.

 

Yeah, it's definitely Abbey Road. I respect TDB more than I love it, and Abbey Road is maybe the greatest Beatles album.

 

Wow this is super tough, tbh. Like obviously Laura would be so mad if I voted TDB, but… I love both albums!

 

TDB is more fun to listen to. The Beatles best is Let it Be for me.

 

wow

 

TDB for sure. I wasn't a huge New Wave or White Crosses fan, but TDB was Laura firing on all cylinders again and her best work ever. Black Me Out is the perfect album closer.

 

i don’t think i’ve ever heard that take. i’m not mad. it’s just quite the take.

re: let it be

 

Oh god this is a tough one. Abbey Road is obviously a classic, and side B is some of my favorite music ever recorded, but I'm not as wild on side A (apart from Something which is brilliant and I Want You). Plus I'm pretty sure Laura herself would vote for Abbey Road...

But TDB is such a meaningful and amazing album too, and Black Me Out is on my shortlist of favorite songs. Idk I'm going to chew on it

 

Wait I’m confused, which Radiohead album is going to win this matchup?

 

Lots of love for TDB but yeah it’s Abbey Road

 

abbey road didn't help me with my gender issues

 

abbey road baby

 

I lost my virginity to Abbey Road

 

Is Abbey Road good in bed?

 

Abbey Road has more cultural/historical impact but I listen to TDB a hell of a lot more

 

Let’s just say the sun isn’t the only thing that came

 

stop this immediately

 

Both are great but it's gotta be Abbey

 

Mad respect to Against Me and TDB but I've been listening to a ton of The Beatles on the days I work from home to watch my son and that's cemented how perfect Abbey Road is for me.

 

I will never say it’s the best or my favorite, but it honestly may be the one I listen to the most. It’s my favorite vibe of any of their albums.

 

I need to think on this one. As a queer person I want to vote for Against Me but I think compositionally I prefer this Beatles album. If it was another Beatles album Against Me would win but this is closer. I'll need to relisten to both before voting.

 

my votes not gonna matter so im giving it to tdb

 

TDB baby. I don't care about the Beatles and just generally enjoy being a little stinker
