Best Decade Tournament - 90s - Numbers wins!

[ABNorman]

I should vote before it closes.

DSB (It hurts me to vote against Aroma of Man, it really does...but despite really not liking his first two picks, dsb's group got shockingly good as it went on)
Bart (Common People - Girlfriend - Jazzy Belle - Enjoy the Silence - The Universal...that's a lot of good songs)
Me
Sarge (He has Tolerate. Nuff said...)

Didya skip LMS/BRL on purpose?

[Lament]

No, I was just so excited to vote for Sarge that I jumped the gun.

BRL (Totally Krossed Out was the first cd I ever owned...gotta represent for superyoung Lament)

[stip]

Setting up for birthday party tomorrow. Round is closed. Will tally in a few hours. If someone could get to it first that would be peachy keen

I would like to thank this thread for Paw, Refused, Shihad, and Tripping Daisy. That is all.

[Iholdthepain]

If you liked Tripping Daisy, check out their evolution into the 21st century...

The Polyphonic Spree...



I was at this show, back in 2007... Daughter is on my shoulders down front

They have been around for 14 years now, and there is nothing like them anywhere on Earth!

[i got bugs]

I'll vote when I know what planet I'm on

[LetMeSleep]

Pryto vs. Stip - Easy one for me as there's not much about PryTo's list that does anything for me.
Theplatypus vs. Abnorman - Really enjoyed a few of Platy's but AB had too many big hitters. Those first 5 tracks could come from an essential 90's compilation.
Durdencommatyler vs. Kaius - Kaius by a nose. DcT had the better PJH, though Kaius had the better NMH (though I still don't GET IT). Also enjoyed the Sexton track.
Numbers vs. Birds In Hell - Really torn over this one as both teams have a few I really like and few that I really don't like. Spenno, thanks for reminding me to dig out my Mojave 3 and Jesus Lizard CDs. Numbers had a solid team though.

So 4 away wins.
