This is the second round of the tournament stage. Please vote for the album that you feel should move on to the quarterfinals (aka Sweet 16).

To encourage as many votes as possible, the deadline to vote will be Monday at 2:00PM Eastern.

Yeah, I voted Zep to essentially make it close, and to see another epic debate thread, but REM will win.

I wish it was pretty much any other zeppelin album, but I still like it more than Murmur, which I've been trying to care about for about 15 years with little luck.

And after 100 million listens, I still can't help but play air drums/guitar during Stairway.

I voted Murmur. Would have voted II over that though.

Wow, really? I feel like I was born listening to REM.

I don't care a whole lot either way, but I voted for Murmur.

Even I have to vote Murmur this time, despite an initial tendency to throw a contrary vote.
