During the first round of The Great Music Tournament, please vote for up to five tracks you would like to move onto the next round. The top five tracks will be moving on. Keep in mind that the percentage of the vote a given track receives will determine its standing going forward.

IMPORTANT! Please do not simply vote on name recognition (or lack thereof) alone. Please do listen to each nomination and then make your choice. Even if you think you know a track well, it's still worth giving it a listen for a refresher.

The poll will run for seven days. Discussion is greatly encouraged!

The nominees are (please let me know if any video doesn't play for you):

I wanted to nominate pretty much every song from the album but had to settle for just "In Liverpool" which is such a beautiful song and the best one on the album. "Blood Makes Noise" is a close second. 99.9F is an album I can listen to on repeat over and over. There is not a bad song on it. Very few albums achieve that. It's art.

Oh man, "Principles of Lust" is so close to making it, I hope it can manage to squeeze through. But just one vote for "In Liverpool" is heartbreaking. What an amazing song from an amazing album.
