No other possible winner, perfect opener to a perfect album.

So, this is pretty much the "received wisdom" bet pick of GEER, yeah? Nothing wrong with that, but it'll be interesting to see how many true upsets we have winning their albums. Cut the Crap is the most likely to generate that, methinks.

I'll be mildly annoyed if Three Card Trick doesn't win in the album, would be nice to see it go through a couple more rounds.

SAE was always gonna win, and rightly so. Everything about it is 10/10.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

It's great but it's never been my favourite on that album.

Listening to GEER on headphones this morning and it's just a damned shame we couldn't make all of these songs the winner. Top notch album, love every tune here.

Addendum: That Guns on the Roof guitar work :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool:

Addendum II: I was too hard on ATYP, although I still think I started trying to vote it out at the right time. Great song.

Definitely underrated, a near perfect album, absolutely stunning.
