Friday13th: Elite Prog Round #1 M7

Friday13th 04.21.14	Closes Wednesday afternoon
mandan 04.21.14	I've already heard 1, but not 2.
StinkyPinky 04.21.14	based on artwork alone im giving this to 2
zakalwe 04.21.14	The t/t on 2 has to be heard. As an album it's one of my all time greats.
mandan 04.21.14	This means that my rec shall go against mena's.
MrSirLordGentleman 04.21.14	2's artwork is so cool
zakalwe 04.21.14	Don't upset it or it will be waiting for you in your wardrobe. Red eyes glaring and stinking up the place with its baccy pipe
mandan 04.21.14	Only 13-14 days actually.
Friday13th 04.21.14	As soon as we end Round #1 I'll make the matches daily. It's assumed everyone will have heard the contestants by then so it'll speed up.
mandan 04.21.14	Alrighty.
MrSirLordGentleman 04.21.14	fucking japanese, the only thing I thought they sucked at was classic rock and now I discover this album
Friday13th 04.21.14	Another tough decision. 1 is so pretty and 2 rocks so hard.
mandan 04.22.14	Holy shit, started listening to Yonin Bayashi at long last, this is good. I think zak hit a home run with this one.
mandan 04.22.14	Omatsuri, omg. Dat bass is too sweet.
mandan 04.22.14	t/t is amazeballz.
SCREAM! 04.22.14	This is a really tough call. Both of these releases are fantastic
mandan 04.22.14	Need to revisit 1 and hear 2 once more before voting.
mandan 04.22.14	2 is a hard 4.5 for me, amazing album. Need to give 1 another listen before deciding.
menawati 04.22.14	title track of 2 is indeed great but the PF influence gets a bit strong in places, especially that bit that sounds like a japanese parody of Breathe
MrSirLordGentleman 04.22.14	Yeah, the Breath parody is just too obvious, but overall the album has a very unique style, going from some Doors-esque keyboards to some very heavy riffs
menawati 04.22.14	cant choose, split decision for me, like both
SCREAM! 04.22.14	One of the toughest calls so far but Imma vote Gotic
MrSirLordGentleman 04.22.14	I'll go with the possessed japanese sloth
Friday13th 04.22.14	I'm jamming them for the third time and then maybe I can decide.
MeatSalad 04.22.14	1.
Friday13th 04.22.14	So far I feel 1 is a more complete work but 2 has stronger highlights. #whydon'tIjustflipacoin
zakalwe 04.22.14	Yonin Bayashi
Jethro42 04.22.14	1 speaks to me more.
MeatSalad 04.22.14	2 has superior art though lets be real
MrSirLordGentleman 04.22.14	I really want to squeeze those red eyes
Friday13th 04.22.14	bloodshot sloth needs a hug
zakalwe 04.22.14	The possessed Japanese sloth will be graceful in defeat but his eyes will weep black tears.
MrSirLordGentleman 04.22.14	Seriously, one of the coolest arts I've seen
mandan 04.22.14	Gotic is great, but I just don't see any growth potential on it. It's a hard 4 for me. I feel Yonin Bayashi merits another listen (the 3rd) before I make the vote official though.
Friday13th 04.22.14	He smokes to hide the pain inside.
zakalwe 04.22.14	There's an elephant on the back with the tortoise riding it's trunk. Best sleeve ever.
zakalwe 04.22.14	On closer inspection that's the elephants trunk on the front. Total classic.
mandan 04.22.14	Official: my vote goes to Yonin Bayashi.
Friday13th 04.22.14	Official: my vote goes to Yonin Bayashi. [2]
Jethro42 04.23.14	I change my vote for Yonin Bayashi after couple other listens. I first didnt like the little side of Santana found on Yonin Bayashi but it's now all fine.
mandan 04.23.14	Holy shit! The Japanese primate now has a chance of winning!!!
Friday13th 04.23.14	With Jethro's endorsement? That's pretty much a deal sealer!
MrSirLordGentleman 04.23.14	"I first didnt like the little side of Santana found on Yonin Bayash" Holy jesus christ, Jethro, you don't like Santana?
SCREAM! 04.23.14	Am I the only Gotic vote?
Friday13th 04.23.14	You and MeatSalad
MrSirLordGentleman 04.23.14	Every album I vote for, wins ;)
Friday13th 04.23.14	Same with Jethro though he didn't vote M4
mandan 04.23.14	I have a 5-1-1 record.
Jethro42 04.23.14	''Holy jesus christ, Jethro, you don't like Santana?'' With little doses yes, especially when it's diluted, lite like in Yonin Bayashi.
Jethro42 04.23.14	''Same with Jethro though he didn't vote M4'' lolwut? I thought my vote went for Los Jaivas. Maybe I just forgot to make my move...
Onirium 04.23.14	Yonin Bayashi will probably win the whole contest
mandan 04.23.14	Don't be too sure dude. Competition is tight.
Onirium 04.23.14	yeah but look at this sloth face
MrSirLordGentleman 04.23.14	Nah, I seriously think Los Jaivas will win the contest
Friday13th 04.23.14	Los Jaivas will sacrifice the mutant sloth on the altars of Machu Picchu.
MrSirLordGentleman 04.23.14	Alturas next opponent should be NoSound am I right? I think it'll be a rape tbh
Friday13th 04.23.14	CLOSED. The smoking hot Japanese sloth wins 6-2.
