More power trio than punk in my view. Generic, granted, but a genre I'm familiar with. Could have done with a bit more sting in the guitar solo. Slight, but all right.
Funky soul, an oxymoron, bodes ill, but basically what we seem to have here is a bit of girl-group R&B from the late sixties (?) with some occasionally lovely harmonies and decent lead vocal, which together sort of make up for those horrid rackety drums, but not really the parping funky horns and the FUCKING FLUTE.
Average vs curate's egg - I'll isten to them both again
Meh. The arrangement on B is a dealbreaker

I like both of these, both comfortably in my HOUSE of WHEEL. A feels a bit fresher to my ears.

I dont know who the other person is - and this goes for most of the ties, tbh - so voting for something i dont like as much just doesn't make sense to me! I have voted for songs that aren't mine, many times, whether i win the round or not!

B is exactly the kind of thing you normally vote for. i shall be revisiting this tie once the results have been announced.

It's funny how you get so much moaning about psych,funk and jazz, when it's exactly this kind of inderminate thrash that's given a critical free pass on here. It's never held to much scrutiny at all.a

It's never held to much scrutiny at all.a I'd say it's more the case that this is the sort of track at which the threshold for any scrutiny is allowed. If it were faster, louder, more aggressive, it would definitely be dismissed without scrutiny.

People never have much to say about these sort of tracks, hence the vague "it's fresh", "it's energetic" type comments. They're like generic comments that can be applied indiscriminately to anything within the punk/hardcore genre.

Well, there's fuck all to say about this particular one, other than "it isn't energetic" or "it isn't fresh". But I would love a bit of a chance to wax lyrical about one of your grindcore or crust-punk picks.
