The only way The Clash lose this matchup will be due to a backlash against the fact that "London Calling" always wins these contests as the greatest album of all time.

Got go with Dylan on this one. Tough call, but the heart wants what it wants.

I voted Dylan. I really like London Calling, and have come way around on The Clash in general, but BIBH is my fave Dylan album.

Wow, this is tough. Usually the correct answer is whichever album Dalen and Promethium don't vote for, but they've gone against each other here.

Gotta go with the Clash.

I don't think we have shared many votes, maybe Radiohead, I know he went with the Beatles while I went with the Stones.

Yeah, I suppose you could take that literally, as if I actually paid attention to such things.

which is kinda dumb and pointless given how often radcliffe and I vote differently. For example this matchup or 3/4 of today's matchups. This Hive that people keep imagining doesn't exist. loogar just posts crap like that to deflect attention from his many embarrassing votes and statements during this exercise.
