Here is the bracket!

Some of the names are listed alone, meaning they will move on automatically to round two. (Because the number of contestants isn't a power of two and this is the easiest solution)

Round 3 Poll 6

Still：　「I wrote the lyrics half while in 10th year Chemistry class and half while crying in my little sister's bed on her death anniversary. Unsurprisingly, it's about the grief and trauma of losing a loved one too soon from an accident and my grip on reality slipping as I struggle to come to terms with the emptiness and hopelessly cling to a ghost, and also bottling up feelings. Or something. This is still (hehe) my favourite of our songs because it's really special to me, but we're never quite satisfied with how it sounds, so there are like 5 different versions of it, and there are parts of it that make me cringe so I rewrote it in Dutch, haha. As the later versions are not out, here is the GIRL version. That iconic guitar riff is the jingle that plays on my ACNH island.」

If These Walls Could Talk：　「hes a wholy successful songwriter for musicals but none of his original songs have caught on and its actually so upsetting because hes clearly so talented? not to mention the song itself absolutely slaps he has the vocals he has the lyrics he has the instrumental!!」

2/3 of ded ihn uh hul are trans and nonbinary. (And I would have submitted their song Still to this if I had known about it when submissions were open because man...)

That's what the recs are for!

[weirdlittlemusicartists]

The Aquabats:

Most Fucked Up: Chemical Bond

Favorite: Story of Nothing

Propaganda: "a bunch of dads in wetsuits that galavant around and sing about pizza and beat up guys in costumes. entirely built off being confident about being a little freak which is incredibly commendable. the person speaking is a registered aquacadet! (#2000278!)"

ded ihn uh hul:

Most Fucked Up Song: Alcoholic Gummy Bears, Girl You Are So Beautiful Like the Sunset

Favorite Song: LTD, Still

Propaganda: "they’re really great and they support/are apart of several minorities and they have a female lead vocalist and they are multilingual and their music is just vibes"

"The utmost culty band of them all. They literally sacrifice people (lovingly) and resurrect them. They worship The hul, an upside down triangle entity. They make some absolute bangers. They are the moment. "

"They are apparently imimmortal (like pseudo-immortal, I dunno) beings from the "OtherUnderworld" who spread the will of their upside-down triangle deity called the hul through music. They claim to be the prophets of the hully clut. They have a choreographed reverse-sacrifice (they resurrect someone?) ritual to be performed before concerts, though they have only done one online concert to which about 11 people showed up; there is a fanfic written about it. They're SO disorganized and kind of cringefail, it's pure chaos. It took them 8 years to finish their debut album, Translation: Bacon, and they still haven't finished putting together the physical release, but when they do, it will include riddles and secret codes, poorly made booklets with lyrics and doodles that read right to left for no reason, and photocards. Their first EP was postponed because the drummer, who does all the art/design, took over 6 months to draw the album cover. They make weird videos and are also Twitch streamers and have an official Tumblr. Their musical style is like... metal infused with k-pop? The yassification of metal? Whatever they think seems fun in the moment? Their lyrics are mostly English but they have also used Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Dutch, and French. One is a talented music major, one is a linguistics nerd who is also a dancer in a k-pop cover group, and one is an autistic gamer (studying game design) with every medical problem. They're queer, if that helps; two of them are trans. Also, they're all cousins and started the band when they were like 10 or something. The fourth member mysteriously vanished."

Round 1 Poll 19

Screamin' in the Gleamin'：　「This song is a representation of character development but in song form… it’s also maybe about sapphic vampires… So like… That’s pretty hot…」

The Ballad of the Seafaring Wenches：　「"I might not be somebody you can like, but I'm damn sure someone you can't forget"

they are actually literally the nicest people though...」

Apparently diuh is the only exception

What the- The lyrics tab got Spotified?

I was going to say that it’s not an inherently bad change, and it might be more accessible for some people, I just wasn’t expecting it and thought it was a glitch, but after using it I changed my mind and wish I could turn it off.

The tracking doesn’t work when my internet is poor, which it normally is, so then it just takes more scrolling and all the text is dimmer, and it seems to take more computing power and the audio started glitching weirdly. Like if the tracking did sort of work, when it got to the end of a line it would freeze.

Again because the last one was the wrong length

[ded-ihn-uh-hul]

ded ihn uh hul (270-ish) is a pretty seriously goofy and rad metal band, as a totally unbiased third-party source. Actually, you probably won’t like them—it’s an acquired taste—but if you like dreamy prog pop stuff you may like their friends OrcaMind.

Both were included in that tournament actually haha so, seconding what 2460juan said.

i need to listen to more spotify artists with under 50k monthly listeners drop your recs please….

[evilscientist3]

Oo you’re taking song recommendations? Still by ded ihn uh hul

Ψ(￣∀￣)Ψ

couldn’t listen all the way through | not my thing | it’s okay | kinda catchy | i like this | ok i really like this | fucks severely | already in my library

Nice riff in the opening. The piano works well to support the vocals in the more subdued sections!
