This is because RM is apparently full of Audioslave/Linkin Park/Cornell solo fans and fuccbois.
All the Linkin Park songs were out after the second round.

Not my top 16, but still a very strong list. Not one undeserving song left.

This round is insanely difficult. All 16 of those are 10/10.

It's probably the most satisfied I've been with a top 16 on a tournament here

I'm no lyrical aficionado, but yeah he's pretty damn good.








Especially when he writes about birds.

I'm just really excited for that matchup.


I also just really want to ram home that this is the sloppiest tournament I've ever done

Almost a shame that everything apart from Soundgarden has been eliminated, but looking at that list, I think the five strongest of the remaining songs are all from Superunknown.

These four matchups were all surprisingly easy.
