The last first round bout is between alt-rock giant KROQ of Los Angeles (#1 seed in the West Regional) and KRZQ (#16 Reno) who beat KSLG to get here. Should be interesting. As always head to head best of 10, songs from their playlest taken at a random time, but as close in time as pssible.
KROQ starts with SAVIOR --- RISE AGAINST. KRZQ counters with Pumped Up Kicks, a song that sounds like it belongs on a much hearder rcoking arrangement. KROQ 1-0
The rest, with KROQ on the left
LITTLE LION MAN -- MUMFORD & SONS vs. MAN IN THE BOX -- ALICE IN CHAINS. I'll pick British bluegrass over junkie grunge. KROQ is out frong 2-0
CARESS ME DOWN -- SUBLIME VS. OLD MAN - REDLIGHT KING I'm a sucker for Neil Young. KRZQ wins round.
WISH YOU WERE HERE -- INCUBUS VS. SONG 2 -- BLUR How can you resist the whoo-hoo? Tie score.
WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE -- GUNS & ROSES VS. TIGHTEN UP -- THE BLACK KEYS. Welcome to the Jungle is the one indisputable classic from Guns & Roses 3-2 ROQ.
I'M NOT OVER -- CAROLINA LIAR VS. JANE SAYS -- JANE'S ADDICTION. The Carolina Liar song is OK, but Jane's Addiction stumbled into a classic here. 3-3 tie
WAITING FOR THE END -- LINKIN PARK VS. EVERYBODY WANTS TO RULE THE WORLD -- TEARS FOR FEARS. Cmon confess, you love Tears for Fears too! 4-3 KRZQ.
SEX AND CANDY -- MARCY PLAYGROUND VS. DESIRE -- U2 Desire beats out One Hit Blunder Marcy Playground. 5-3 KRZQ
ALL I WANT -- A DAY TO REMEMBER VS. BLUE MONDAY -- NEW ORDER I like A Day to Remember I really do. But Blue Monday is huge. KRZQ wins!
