Also, here's some more fun times: Brief tidbits of my overall EP thoughts after two listens (and one to Sacul's)

Flow and track order seems a bit weird but there are some solid tunes here from sources I would not have expected

This EP starts off really strong but quickly runs out of steam and I'm quite bored by the last few tracks

I feel like this EP needed to escalate more than it actually did to really work but it's still one of the better ones right now

This sounds exactly like I would expect an EP from you to sound, though the back half felt a bit weak compared to the front half

A bit of a rough start but as this EP goes on it has some of my favorite tracks of the entire round, might be my favorite overall right now

Probably the most consistently solid EP but also a bit too one-note and none of the songs really click for me at all

Well, 4 of those comments could easily apply to my EP. Hope it's one of the better ones  :P

Gonna be seeing Eidola and The Ongoing Concept tonight, hopefully should be a good show  :metal

Reminder on this because I didn't restate it before, every full point over the lowest scoring finalist (in this case Train) gets a bonus quarter point for this round.
So... luke gets .25 points & Luoto gets 1.25 points, doesn't look like anyone else gets anything by those rules  :lol

Keeps things reasonable so Luoto doesn't just autowin for having such a higher score going into this round but still takes into account the last 11 rounds too.

update:
Eidola was great, ended up picking two of their albums up
& they played Humble Ledger as the finale which really sounds completely out of place compared to all their other stuff but those first few minutes are still great so w/e
The Ongoing Concept was tons of fun though, def gonna have to pick up their last album as well as the new one dropping in like three weeks, lel

as far as EP listens go i'm through three listens now & i definitely have a favorite though one of the top three songs also comes from what's atm my least favorite (favorite song atm is on the favorite EP, of course)

Give me that tasty E so we can start finishing things off.

Toronto is by Tusks and possibly sent by Bolsters? Sounds like the type of thing he send a lot.
Two Glassjaw tracks (Luke), one of which is titled Cosmopolitan Blood Loss
Killer Be Killed - Wings of Feather and Wax is also by Luke and it is a friggin amazing song
There seems to be a second Karmakanic song, the title ends with In Paradise. No clue what this band is so I'll take a blind guess and say Nekov sent both of them.
Kylesa song is Luke
my guess at part of the title of the Flower Kings song is Door Nr. Rain's Ordinary, which doesn't make much sense but maybe they're the type of band that has arbitrary song titles to enhance their prog-mystique. Oh and the other Flower Kings song ends with Lover?

& they played Humble Ledger as the finale which really sounds completely out of place compared to all their other stuff but those first few minutes are still great so w/e
The first half of the song is definitely the best but the second half is also awesome :corn also the new album grew a bit more on me, it's not as bad as I first thought, just not nearly as interesting as Degeneraterra.

Flow and track order seems a bit weird but there are some solid tunes here from sources I would not have expected
:corn
people on this board are actual music fans who developed taste in music and not casual listeners who are following current fashion trends and listening to only current commercial hits.

Yea, I'm pretty sure I played all those songs in various plug.dj sessions...

Ghost in You EP is Bolsters

Train is obviously The Intercontinental Train of Impending Doom... Extravaganza

i sat down and listened to every last song on all five EPs in random order tonight and my conclusion is:

there are four songs that i find particularly strong and three of them are on the same EP. not much i really dislike, only one song comes to mind off the top of my head as the weakest of the round. just a lot that i find solid but isn't really doing a whole lot for me. i can't say for sure how the round results will turn out but based on where my favorites are i have a good guess of who will end up winning this thing. we'll see though, i won't even know for sure until all the scores are set in stone and added up. and i'll post the finalists from 5th place overall to 1st place overall with a bit of time between each, just to drag it out as long as possible  :corn

maybe i'll hold results hostage until hangman is finished, dunno

M83: Outro and Another Wave from you. Probably sent by Train.
Ghost Brigade was sent by Luoto is suppose?

update:
Eidola was great, ended up picking two of their albums up
& they played Humble Ledger as the finale which really sounds completely out of place compared to all their other stuff but those first few minutes are still great so w/e
I'm very glad I at least got you into Eidola  :angel:

I think M83 might be Bolsters.

Okay, I'm gonna listen to some songs and try to see whose EP they might match, let's get this shit done

Passion Pit - Take a Walk: Bolsters
In Mourning - From a Tidal Sleep: Luoto
Amendfoil - Darken Waters: also probably Luoto
If the 'a' is incorrectly positioned, one of the songs could be Long Season Pt. Something (just gonna guess 1) by Fishmans: Bolsters?
BT - The Ghost In You (Intro)
Ghost Brigade - Elama On Tulta
Amy Shark - Drive You Mad / Adore
Kylesa - Unspoken
Songs from the Edge of the Earth: Luoto maybe
Moon Safari - Too Young to Say Goodbye
In Vain - Image of Time: just gonna keep guessing Luoto for everything which genre you can describe with death or doom, so Luoto
Agents of Mercy - Between Sun and Moon: Nekov

EDIT: sniped by Evermind, I had originally guessed Nekov for Talk Talk so if it's not Sacul fill that in. I left the In Mourning guess in there since I also completed the song title

Oh and Buckethead is probably Sacul, and the song is called For Mom

It's probably Luoto.

pretty sure literally every part of Luoto's EP has been guessed by the end of Train's post actually, so no, Buckethead is not on Luoto's
