At Dawn, that album or It Still Moves is probably my favorite MMJ album. I like them much more than I do Frank Black.

Like that Frank Black (and going to see him in a tiny bar a block from my apartment on Saturday) but having not heard that MMJ very much I'm going to have to abstain.

I was going to abstain, unless it were close...

..but, since these things zip by, I'll throw an against-MMJ vote here to the semi-decent Frank Black album.

I have zero interest in both albums, but I could see MMJ getting further in this tourney, so I gave Frank Black the vote.

FB's masterwork

That being said, I'd have taken MMJ's masterwork (It Still Moves) over Black Letter Days.

My head would have gone all Scanners had I been forced to choose between Black Letter Days and Z.

At Dawn IS MMJ's masterwork. Black Letter Days still beats it although At Dawn might be the next best thing in the tournament.

Black Letter Days SLAYS At Dawn.

Yeah, no. It's not even the best Frank Black.

The better album is winning.
