A has gone quite obscure with the last 5, maybe too much so for the overall list. It makes it look somehow unbalanced, but after listening to it all through again - except for the Wussy and Angel tracks which didn't play - I find it pretty great. B keeps on keeping on though with some strong choices; more well-known, but none that try my patience or that I personally dislike. The DC pick is just ok, and kinda stands out for me in a strong finish. I'll go A for a little more adventurousness, but i'll be happy with either to go through.

Works fine stateside for me. Teardrops et all work.

It's probably a region specific issue.

All 3 links mentioned above don't work - "Not available".
Nonsense to the aggressiveness, I've seen more aggression on the my little pony message board......I mean I was told.

Wussy works fine here. Worth listening to also.

I also had 3 links in A's new five that didn't work, but I did check out Darkness Fish's live Wussy link.

Difficult to choose between, but I guess B edges it. I don't mind that Durutti Column track, and I'm usually a bit of a sucker for Elvis.

A seems to be getting more interesting.

B hasn't taken any missteps, but hasn't been daring enough for my taste.

I’m not madly keen on either set of new picks (two broken links in A). So

B

carries it solely on its momentum from the first round.

Although B has Material Girl the fact it got through Round 1 so convincingly against a list of such out-and-out quality will be a skidmark on this message board that will linger long after the internet itself is rendered obsolete.

A - 12 B=19
B wins and will go through to the next match.
Get me your next five tracks B if you haven't already, thank you.
