Division 4 Round 4bc: Parachutes vs. Pendulum

[stip]

If Pendulum was a little bit more muted/distant, and Eddie was down in the mix a bit I might have voted for it. Both great songs that are done a disservice by their production, but Pendulum is the kind of song that is going to rely more on the atmosphere it creates, and so it feels the impact of that a bit more.


Parachutes.

[LetMeSleep]

Parachutes is a thing of beauty.

[Birds in Hell]

Parachutes better win this round, good lord.

[B]

I like Parachutes just fine at this point, but I have trouble jumping on that bandwagon.

Pedulum

[hlniv]

Parachutes is just a nice tune. Very little criticism can be reasonably laid on it.

Pendulum is nice, but it's a trick of a song, a piece of music that does something well, but nothing else beyond that.

[Strat]

Parachutes better win this round, good lord.

[tommymtcom]

I really don't get all the love Parachutes gets. It sounds horrible on the record. Is there a good live version I should check out?

[PHATJ]

I really don't get all the love Parachutes gets.

Pendulum easily gets my vote.

[epilogue]

Parachutes is a thing of beauty.

[bodysnatcher]

I'm kind of surprised by the results so far. RM finally getting something right.

[chewm]

Parachutes is so much better.

[Mike]

This is way too close. Only a 3/2 ratio? This should be like 10/1 or something.

[darth_vedder]

Tough match up, two of PJ's better newish tunes. I think Parachutes edges out Pendulum though.

[William Bloke]

Parachutes is a thing of beauty.

[Alex]

parachutes, while not a particularly great song, should be viewed favorably simply because its sound distinguishes it from the plodding, mid-tempo white noise of the avocado album

[Alex]

while pendulum is part of the plodding, mid-tempo white noise of lightning bolt
