Best Artist: Round 1: Poll 33
 

Okay you pick your favorite artists on here and then the top two winners go onto the next round and we repeat the process. Each poll is open for three days.

I vote for Modest Mouse.

Death Cab For Cutie (:

Damn. I really love Tom Waits and MBV, kinda hard to pick between those two. I guess Waits because he's more diverse as a musician, while MBV as great as they were really only had one sound, and they only had 2 great albums while Waits has had several.

Sebadoh I've only heard a few songs from. With the exception of Pavement and Dinosaur Jr I don't really like this lo-fi stuff, it just sounds like something with no real effort put into it.

As for Modest Mouse and Death Cab, well you already know what I think of them.

Tom Waits.

MBV and Waits are clearly the best there. I prefer MBV marginally so I'll vote them.

ew

Tom Waits is ew?

Going with Death Cab

dont like any

My Bloody Valentine.

MBV for me

Well MBV and Tom Waits are both great... but I'll have to give this one to Waits.

I have to vote for Tom Waits for the simple reason he made a Primus song listenable , a miracle so great I doubt Jesus would be able to do should he ever try it.

*Primus fan*

Eleven Hundred miles is in fact too long inside a car. I hate voting against Sebadoh. I love Lou Barlow. I didn't actually start listening to Modest Mouse until after boo boo told me that I did, ha.

Sebadoh are too much of a mixed bag for me to consider above Waits and MBV. They've got some incredible songs, but there's always some filler on their albums. Barlow is the man though.

Well, I've only heard the first two bands music, so I went with Modest Mouse. Going to check out the other three now...be back...

Modest Mouse.

I can't believe MM is going to push out MBV or Tom Waits.

My Bloody Valentine of course!!! Modest Mouse come 2nd

MBV and Modest Mouse win.
