Alt./Indie rock Tournament: Day 8

[Soratar]

Yesterday, My Bloody Valentine barely pulled out a win with just 1 vote ahead of REM. The Beck vs. Pavement competition wasn't very exciting. Beck won with a landslide. Today we have:

13 The Cure vs. 20 Arctic Monkeys
and
14 The Jesus and Mary Chain vs. 19 The New Pornographers

[Soratar]

This is a very tough one, but I'm gonna have to go with the Monkeys and The Jesus and Mary Chain.

[LibertineStripes]

Arctic Monkeys and The New Pornographers for me.

[Gowienczyk]

Arctic Monkeys are awful, The New Pornographers are bland.

Voted for the other two.

[Alright_Computer]

New Pornographers are cool, but Jesus & Mary Chain blow them out of the water. Arctic Monkeys suck and the Cure is awesome, that was an easy one.

[LegendofRock3021]

The Cure and Jesus & Mary Chain.

The Cure and New Pornographers

the cure and jesus & mary chain.
new pornographers are pretty good, but J&MC are one of the greatest. arctic monkeys are one of the worst bands i've ever heard.

This...

[CommonCriminal]

Arctic Monkeys and New Pornographers.

The Cure had a couple of awesome albums and a ****load of terrible ones. Arctic Monkeys have made 2 consecutive awesome albums that have seen a lot of replay on my iPod.

New Pornographers have not made a bad album, yet. The Jesus and Mary Chain just don't do it for me.

The Cure and New Pornographers

this, i'm just starting to get into The Jesus & Mary Chain, but i've liked The New Pornos for a while

maybe eventually i'll like them more

This. I really like the Arctic Monkeys and apparently the only Cure music I have listened to has been from their bad albums. :)

Everything after Kiss Me x3.

lolwut? (http://www.lolwut.com/layout/lolwut.jpg)

Disintegration, Wish & Bloodflowers are awesome! also Wild Mood Swings, The Cure, and 4:13 Dream are very good too! :confused:

Disintegration is one of my favorite albums of all time!!! :eek: :D

are you considering Kiss Me x3 as one of those bad albums, because if you think that that one is bad too then.... :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:



and The Top and Seventeen Seconds.

yeah those are kinda on the weak side..... :o

[Gowienczyk]

The Cure is just Joy Division for girls, anyway. :p

"disintegration" is one of the most solid albums of the 80's... "darklands" is pretty close.

[n4sc4r]

I went with the Cure and the Jesus and Mary Chain. I love the Cure, and like J&MC just a bit more than the New Pornographers.

Disintegration would like a word with you.

[Soratar]

They were off Seventeen Seconds.

[CommonCriminal]

Disintegration would like a word with you.

I know what that is. I don't think it's a good album.

[n4sc4r]

I know what that is. I don't think it's a good album.

Blasphemy!!!
j.k. Everyone has their own opinion. It took me 2 listens for it to start to grow on me.

[Buffdog18]

Arctic Monkeys and The New Pornographers for me.
