Unacclaimed VII: Heats, Week 6

Post by Bang Jan »

The way this game works is that you will be given two sets of four songs, your job is to rank each of the sets from best to worst. First place gets 4 points, second gets 3 etc.

The song with the most points in each set will advance to the semi-finals. If there is a tie for points, then the song with more first place votes will advance. If they are tied on first place votes as well, there will be a sudden death tiebreak. Also the six highest scoring non-winners in the heat stage (based off point per voter and then percentage of first place votes) will also advance to the semi-finals.

Feel free to ask any questions, deadline is next Wednesday at 21:00 UTC.

I see you guys already hate my pick. Nevermind, it'll remain my secret treasure. The intricate guitar play, loose drumming and nonchalant singing of Th'Faith Healers make it a top track from the Too Pure stable for me !

Favourite song of the week: Phototropic (my own nomination)
Favourite discovery: This Time. Hard to believe it's from the UK in 1992. I would have bet on United States ca. 2007.
