It Ain't Me babe. CCR all the way.

[Derwood]

If Radiohead loses this I will be ashamed of you all.

[ManCrushOnNomar]

If they had quit after Pablo Honey, I'd agree with you. However, I'm not a big fan of Thom Yorke whining over white noise.

Then you clearly haven't listened to a single note of The Bends, OK Computer , Amnesiac or Hail to the Thief

Argh, 2 of my faves meet in the 1st round. Sorry Radiohead, but I'll have to take CCR. I HATE most classic rock but CCR rules.

[Butterscup1679666578]

Wow, this is the hardest one yet. I take Radiohead, though.

[WindyCity]

Radiohead >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> CCR

 

Kid A is a brilliant album.

[WindyCity]

The fact that CCR is currently winning is criminal.

 

Have you people actually listened to Radiohead? Seen them perform live?

What's criminal is that one of these bands has to get eliminated in the 1st round.

it's only going to get worse on that account. The 8-9 matchups are killers

For you, maybe, but music is a highly subjective topic and I doubt the seeds you assign bands will have much reflection on the way I vote. Case in point: I think I've voted for more under-seeds so far than the favored bands, including this matchup. (Thanks to my father's influecne I have an affinity for CCR, while I've never been a big fan of "whiney" rock.)

You should be ashamed of yourself for making CCR a 14 seed.

[Balsa]

I'd be surprised if CCR lost. They're an amazing band, and Radiohead is just damn annoying.

I voted for Radiohead but I think they've jumped the shark as a band.

Agreed. My vote goes to CCR.

Seriously. They have the same rank as Rage and STP? Baloney!

[Derwood]

Who knew that Cub fans were such fans of John Fogerty's brand of countrified rock?

[Balsa]

It's great stuff. Speaking of which, what seed is Lynyrd Skynyrd?

you shall see. Not super high though

I've actually listened to every note of those albums. A group of my friends are HUGE Radiohead fans (i.e. drug users), and I've had to endure more than my share of their new stuff. Some of it's really good, but it's making it through the 40 minutes of swirly noises and guitar effects before you get to the real meat of the rock.

 

Plus dude, it's CCR. You can't not tap your foot to those guys.

The Bends doesn't have a lick of electronic noise anywhere on it, OK Computer is very much a guitar driven album....and why do Radiohead fans have to be drug users? I love Pink Floyd and Radiohead and don't do any drugs at all.

[wolf stansson]

Wow. I love Radiohead and voted for them, but in reality I think these seedings were off. CCR needed to be higher and Radiohead needed to be lower.

[Derwood]

I'm seriously perplexed at the outcome of this. Radiohead is one of the most original bands of the last decade, while CCR is countrified rock.

[Shilzzz]

i can't believe this is even a discussion. i'm embarrassed.

 

ok computer and kid a have done more for music than anything ccr ever did.

 

people here must really hate music that uses alot of electronic devices(don't argue with me that guitars are electronic devices, you know what i'm talking about).
