Super hard choice between Refuge and Harmony Korine.

[SwedishGoose]

Totally amazed that Permanating seems to win over Raider II....

Raider II is one of my favorites of Stevens Catalogue.

[Elite]

Raider II is pretty incohesive and, well, long. I can totally imagine people not liking it. I voted for Raider though, the last couple minutes of that song are amazing.

Here are the results for this round:

GROUP D RESULTS
Veneno Para Las Hadas 3-7 Detonation
Transience 0-10 Routine
Don't Hate Me 8-2 Track One
Deform to Form A Star 3-7 Luminol
Permanating 5-5 Raider II

GROUP D STANDINGS AFTER ROUND 2
1. ROUTINE (6pts / +18 / 18-0 / 2-0-0)
2= DETONATION (6pts / +11 / 15-4 / 2-0-0)
2= LUMINOL (6pts / +11 / 15-4 / 2-0-0)
4. RAIDER II (4pts / +6 / 12-6 / 1-1-0)
5= DEFORM TO FORM A STAR (3pts / -1 / 9-10 / 1-0-1)
5= DON'T HATE ME (3pts / -1 / 9-10 / 1-0-1)
7. PERMANATING (1pt / -7 / 6-13 / 0-1-0)
8. VENENO PARA LAS HADAS (0pts / -10 / 4-14 / 0-0-2)
9. TRANSIENCE (0pts / -13 / 3-16 / 0-0-2)
10. TRACK ONE (0pts / -14 / 2-16 / 0-0-2)

Routine is building a significant lead at the top of the table now, maintaining a 100% record after 2 rounds, not having a single vote against it. Meanwhile Detonation and Luminol remain locked together in joint-2nd after both won their respective matches 7-3. Their head-to-head encounter isn't until Round 9 though, so there's a chance they may be separated by then. Permanating and Raider II played out a 5-5 draw, which could be considered the shock of the tournament so far.

10. THE BIRTHDAY PARTY (0pts / -9 / 5-14 / 0-0-2)

* No Part of Me wins the head-to-head tiebreaker over Remainder the Black Dog

Wowee! This table took a lot of sorting out. A whole load of 1-0-1 match records here. Only Refuge and The Holy Drinker have maximum points now. Get All You Deserve is the big jumper here, shooting up from 7th to 3rd thanks to a big 8-2 win over The Birthday Party, which slumps to the bottom of the pile. And we have our first instance of head-to-head record separating two otherwise-tied songs, with No Part of Me's win in this round against Remainder the Black Dog giving it 5th place as things currently stand.

Thank you for voting!
