Round 3 Results! (finally)This was a weird round, and I'm still not sure how I feel about the scores in the end. Alas, the show must go on. As a side note, 'noises/voices inside heads' seemed to be a very common theme, with two song titles and related lyrics in a few other songs.
Nekov: Von Hertzen Brothers - Voices in Our Head
AWESOME song. The first half was pretty catchy and groovy, but then the second part came out of nowhere and totally blew me away. Especially when the main melody from the first part kicked back in. I'd never even heard of these guys, but I definitely have to check them out now.
Music: 4/4
Relevance: 3/4
Total: 7/8
jingle.boy: Deep Purple - Kentucky Woman
Hmm, not really my bag honestly. It wasn't a bad song by any means - I wouldn't change the station if it came on the radio, but I can't really see myself ever voluntarily putting it on. Partly it was the rather thin production, and part of it was just the kind of plodding jam band vibe it gave off.
Music: 2/4
Relevance: 3/4
Total: 5/8
Lonestar: The Deadstation - Anything But This, Anywhere But Here
Really cool song. The kick drums especially stood out. I feel like it was harmed by it's relatively short length, but it's all the more reason to check out the rest of the EP. Also, excellent review of it

LieLow: Chiasm - Phobic
Cool song. I've heard Chiasm before, but not a ton so it's all good. Either way, I don't really have anything additional to add, I've gotten a ton of EBM this roulette and it's all be really good.

ClairvoyantCat: Bad Rabbits - Can't Back Down
Man, this was so far away from what I would have expected from you I have no idea what to say
Either way, it was a really fun song, and like you said I can definitely see how it would be awesome live, especially the sing-alongish end. The lyrics didn't seem to be very relevant, but the music was so goddamned groovy it doesn't matter.
Music: 3/4
Relevance: 4/4
Total: 7/8
orcus: AA Bondy - Killed Myself When I was Young
Good song. It reminded me of Bright Eyes a lot, lyrics included. The guitars at the end really added a lot too. There wasn't anything that really blew me away, but it's enough to spark my interest.

Rich: Bizali - Nothing to Lose
Holy fucking aweseomsauce. Fantastic intrumentation, great singer, and insanely fun music. It even had some topical lyrics alongside being energetic as hell. Definitely one of the few submissions that was really relevant musically speaking. I NEED this album right meow, how do I get it?
Music: 4/4
Relevance: Dance/4

Ravenheart: Assemblage 23 - The Noise Inside My Head
Pretty much in the same vein as the other stuff you've sent, not that I'm complaining. Highly relevant lyrics as well.
