127. Immortality vs. Release

[stip]

What a boring final round.

the familiar refrain of the march madnes final

I don’t know. Just always feels like the same songs advance so it loses the excitement later on. Though abnorman can confirm

this is release’s first time in a ‘final’

[ABNorman]

A total of 16 different songs have made the final. (In 16 tournaments. So 16 repeat finalists).

I voted against both of these in the last round but they're both very worthy contenders. For a long time, I probably would have picked "Immortality," but the Ten songs have been on my radar lately in a way they haven't for years (Brad and JWB's 30th anniversary set is to thank for this). This is basically a toss-up for me, but I throw my weight behind "Release" and wish it luck in the gauntlet of reigning champs.

what was in the air the year tremor christ won?

[stip]

now I wish nothingman advanced so we could try and give each song on that album a MM win.

[Strat]

So the furthest we can celebrate is binaural huh?

Dance got close, but yeah.

Dance got close, but yeah.

To be fair, Riot Act, Backspacer and Lightning Bolt are all crap.

[liebzz]

I voted for Release. I can’t say which song I like better, they are both among my favorites. I probably prefer Immortality if we’re being honest, but something about Release has me pulling for it this year.

[Anders]

Still a chance for Release to turn this around.

[Not Burt]

Release, you rubes

[tragabigzanda]
