Alternative Rock Radio March Madness -- KNRK v. KNDD

The battle for the West Coast is on! #3 seed KNDD, the legendary Seattle alt rock station bear KRXP of Colorado Springs. A not very good Clear Channel station KRAB nearly pulled an upset of KNRK of Portland. This should be interesting... KNRK will be on the left KNDD on the left. Best of 10, playlists ready, set, go!

POST BREAK UP SEX -- THE VACCINES VS. HOWLIN FOR YOU -- THE BAACK KEYS Interesting play by 94-7 (KNRK) but The Black Keys is too big and bad to overcome.
CLOSER -- NINE INCH NAILS VS. WHAT IT'S LIKE -- EVERLAST Both good songs. NIN gets the edge with sheer intensity. Tie score.
WHIRRING -- THE JOY FORMIDABLE VS. WHEN YOU WERE YOUNG -- THE KILLERS The Joy Formidable wins by not sounding like anyone else. 2-1 KNRK
I WILL FOLLOW YOU INTO THE DARK -- DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE VS. SEX ON FIRE -- KINGS OF LEON I'll choose sex over death, wouldn't you? The End ties it up.
FLAGPOLE SITTA -- HARVEY DANGER VS. PLUSH -- STONE TEMPLE PILOTS The Harvey Danger song is goofy bordering on the insipid, but the STP song is just derivitive and bad. KRK leads 3-2
ADOLESCENTS -- INCUBUS VS. LOST IN MY MIND -- THE HEAD AND THE HEART aDOLESCENTS IS JUST TOO DAMN GOOD. 4-2 knrk
APRIL 29, 1992 -- BUBLIME VS. SEVEN NATION ARMY --THE WHITE STRIPES Are you kidding me? 4-3 KNRK
SAIL -- AWOL NATION VS. COME OUT AND PLAY -- OFFSPRING The End ties it up again.
SEVEN NATION ARMY -- THE WHITE SRIPES VS. GOLD GUNS GIRLS -- METRIC The White Stripes by a hair. 5-4 KNRK
THE CAVE -- MUMPORD & SONS VS. PLATEAY -- NIRVANA KNRK GOES ONTO THE SWEET 16!
