Sonic Youth Gossip - View Single Post

I ripped this idea off of another thread.

Basically it's like a cup knockout involving each of the 16 Sonic Youth studio albums (no whitey Album, live albums or SYRs, although the first SY EP is included)

Each album has been assigned a number:

01 - Sonic Youth
02 - Confusion is Sex
03 - Bad Moon Rising
04 - EVOL
05 - Sister
06 - DDN
07 - Goo
08 - Dirty
09 - EJSTNS
10 - Washing Machine
11 - A Thousand Leaves
12 - NYCGYF
13 - Murray Street
14 - Sonic Nurse
15 - Rather Ripped
16 - The Eternal

Albums will go against another album by a random selection (chosen via the random number generator at Random.org) and you will vote according to which album you want to win that tie. The winner will then progress to the next round when it will face another previous tie winner, and so on until there's an eventual winner.

Each round will last a week, with the fixtures for the next round being announced on a sunday until the final. It'll make a lot more sense when it's being done. The important thing is that, unlike the Survivor Thread, you vote for who you want to win.

I've kept this thread seperate from the actual threads for each round, just because. Each tie will be given it's own thread, with it's own poll.
