The Worst Car Seat Headrest Song Bracket

You saw the title. After 3 months, we're back for another tournament! This one won't be nearly as long as the original CSH song tournament since we're only including the 72 songs that didn't even make it into the final bracket.

View bracket here:

Welcome to the Homestuck Music Tournament

Hello, I'm @airprime7, and I run the @undertale-ost-tournament, which is currently drawing to a close. The Undertale OST has 101 tracks, and the tournament was a massive undertaking. Which is why I made the incredibly clever choice of starting a tournament with over 600 tracks! And also make a post for every single track beforehand to categorise them! I'm normal.

At the time of writing, I'm in the middle of making posts for coloUrs and mayhem: Universe B, meaning I still have several hundred more posts to queue up. This post should come out right after the post for Black, marking the end of the first 4 volumes of Homestuck music (and also Midnight Crew: Drawing Dead). 4 posts are being put out every day, which means currently the queue stretches to October; when the Undertale tournament ends, this rate may increase.

The tournament will be a single-stage knockout bracket, with minor seeding. I'll basically split tracks into a few categories of how well-known and popular I think they might be. For example, tens of thousands of people know Sburban Jungle and Descend, but I don't think more than 100 fans can tell 04 from 05, or are diehard Blue Noir fans. Tracks that were actually in Homestuck will obviously mostly be more well known.

Currently, this account is just for posting every single Homestuck music track, complete with helpful information. That also means you can use tags to search for your favourite tracks, or similar tracks, etc. Every song is tagged. Take Aggrieve, Rose's fight music. It's tagged #Aggrieve, as well as with #Homestuck Vol. 1, the album it comes from. If you want to see more work by the same composer, it's tagged with #Mark J. Hadley (yes, it's true, people other than Toby Fox did the music for Homestuck), and tracks with the #Aggrieve leitmotif are those with the signature Rose Lalonde theme you may not have even noticed in your favourite tracks. Of course, #Rose Lalonde also gives you a collection of all Rose tracks, and since #Mom Lalonde and #Maplehoof feature in the flash Aggrieve is used in, they're also tagged.

Please submit propaganda!

Send asks with propaganda submissions for your favourite tracks, *especially* the ones you think are underappreciated. There's over 600 tracks to be featured in this tournament, and I can't sing all of their praises. That said, I also can't post every piece of propaganda given, so don't be surprised if someone else's argument for MeGaLoVania gets picked over yours.

Here is a more detailed FAQ, which may be updated over time. If you want more information on a track, just click the link on it's name, and you'll be taken to the matching hsmusic.wiki page, which may have creator commentary and more.

Enjoy the tournament!
