Re: Moderately Acclaimed Albums 13 - Round 3.3
3. Cesária Évora - Miss Perfumado (1992) vs. 4. Black Sabbath - Vol 4 (1972)

7. Boris - Akuma no Uta (2003) vs. 2. Prolapse - The Italian Flag (1997)
8. Moon Duo - Occult Architecture Vol. 1 (2017) vs. 1. Ween - The Mollusk (1997)
I know that by the third round things should be getting serious, but I'm still utterly baffled that Moon Duo are waltzing over Ween without difficulty. I find Occult Architecture Vol. 1 very unmemorable and perhaps the least remarkable album in round 3, while The Mollusk is endlessly playful. What gives?
