I warned you UMH.  Now its Ten Speed for the rest of the roulette.

You do it to yourself.  You do.  And that's what really hurts.
You'll get zero points for the rest of the roulette then.  :P

The funny thing is I was actually looking to send Peter Gabriel this round and save Enchant for later but I couldn't find the song I wanted to send on Grooveshark, and could only find live versions on youtube  :lol

I'm going to have to think about this, although I have some ideas...

Glad you liked that Mars Volta song. Hm...what to send this round...what...to...send...
I felt its length in quite a few places.

I'm having a hard time coming up with something, sorry. I've got a three way tie at the moment, and still unsure if there is something else I want to send. I'll have this shit figured out soon enough.

I have a rough idea of what I want to send (I've got one particular album in mind) but I haven't had time to decide which song to send yet.

Man, I'm sorry. I was in a really shitty mood last night. Plus, I only have one song position nailed down, and the rest are going to be really hard to organize in terms of quality because they're all so damned good. I'll try as hard as I can to get this squared away tonight after school.

If I'm going to do poorly I might as well do it poorly for the whole thing.  No reason to spoil my number 1 point streak.

SDN's failings are the only reason I'm paying attention to this thread.

So if you want me to keep paying attention (because I'm oh-so-important), you'll want to keep putting SDN in last place for my amusement.

But what if SDN submits "Learning to Live"?  Giving that 1 point would create a paradox that would cause the Earth to simultaniously implode and explode.

ANOTHER DISCLAIMER: This round was quite possibly the strongest of all, so good songs are going to do poorly. It's the nature of the beast.

5 Points - lateralus88
Firewind - The Fire and the Fury

This song is right up my alley. Shred, shred, heavy riffs, and a bit more shred. Firewind is yet another one of those bands that I know I should be listening to, but I just never get around to it. This song is fantastic, and Gus G is now pretty high on my favorite guitarists list.

4 Points - sonatafanica
Kaki King - Playing With Pink Noise

Well, you've found me a video that I could watch for hours and never get bored. I also think I'm in love. This girl has some seriously incredible talent. I remember seeing someone play an acoustic like this once, but he was not this good. The amount of precision and concentration it takes to consistently nail that kind of music, especially in front of people, is just jaw-dropping.

4 Points - Ariich
Freak Kitchen - Porno Daddy

So heavy sound, yah!  :metal That main riff is pretty much irresistible. The verses have some pretty funny lyrics as well. I'd say the chorus is the shining point of this song (and the bit of guitar noodling before it). It's still stuck in my head, and doesn't look to be going away any time soon. The solo is quite impressive as well.

3 Points - skydivingninja
Racer X - Scarified

Congratulations! You made it! I've been aware of Paul Gilbert's talent, and I've seen some random videos of his various projects, but I had never seen this one. That main riff is groovy as all hell. Another really cool thing about this band is the bassist seems to be every bit as capable as Gilbert when it comes to soloing. Awesome stuff.

3 Points - DTVT
Clockwork - If These Walls Could Talk

Really strong song. Even at this level it would still be capable of a 5 rating if the other submissions weren't so damned good. The chorus is very memorable, and the guitar work is brilliant, as expected. Definitely gives off an I&W vibe, so I can see myself appreciating the full album quite a bit.

2 Points - KevShmev
Walter Trout Band - Marie's Mood

Again, it really hurts me to put a song so beautiful this low, but 'tis a necessary evil. This is some really emotive playing. Of all the blues guitarists I've heard, I'm surprised that I haven't run across this guy. Crucial oversight on my part, apparently. The keyboard player's pretty phenomenal as well.

2 Points - AcidRainLTE
Iommi - What You're Living For

I was honestly unaware that Iommi did a solo album. I think I would have checked it out much sooner had I been aware of it. This is a great song. The vocals are pretty impressive, and the guitar, well, it's Tony Iommi. What else do I need to say?

1 Point - Sigz
Marnie Stern - Transformer

Where the hell do you find this stuff?  :lol The tapping is pretty awesome, but I had a bit of trouble getting into the song. Definitely not the worst song I've ever heard, but in a field of pure excellence, this one sticks out a bit, I'm afraid.

DTVT - 16 Points
sonatafanica - 16 Points
lateralus88 - 14 Points
Ariich - 14 Points
AcidRainLTE - 12 Points
KevShmev - 10 Points
Sigz - 8 Points
skydivingninja - 6 Points

ROUND 5: OPEN

How the hell is a round where Firewind wins considered to be the "strongest round of all?"  :P

Anyways, gonna think on this.  Clearly the "no metal" disclaimer actually means "send me metally stuff and you will win." :neverusethis:

Well, it's quite obvious that I'm going to enjoy metal a hell of a lot. It's my all-time favorite genre of everything. The whole point of this thing is to branch out, hence the no metal rule. The only reason I lifted it was to get some awesome guitar, and since metal tends to have awesome guitar, I felt that I would be limited.
