With Round 1, we say goodbye to Impossibilium, Emergency and An Inch an Hour. Certainly a tough choice for me in the first round and it's only going to get more challenging!
Eliminated Round 1
Impossibilium
Emergency
An Inch An Hour
Vote for the song you believe to be the weakest on Day for Night and after 48 hours, we will remove the three songs that have the most votes. As before, a song must have at least 10% of the vote in order to be removed otherwise it will carry forward into the following round.
The poll will end Sunday at 12:16am Eastern.
Happy voting!
Shane

"Jungle" by some distance for me. In fact, that track and "Emergency" are the only ones I skip. And every time I listen to them, I am confirmed in the rightness of this approach.

I think this vote is the hardest I've faced yet in any poll. I actually think it will get easier for me as we get further into the album and I stick with a single-minded focus of making sure Nautical comes out on top.
I went with Greasy as well. I like the song, however, I think it was a mis-step by the band in choosing it as the second single off the album.

Fire In The Hole for me, and I feel absolutely dirty doing it, but the version on the album and the one you hear live are completely different beasts.
This is only going to get harder.

Fire In The Hole for me as well. After this round, this one is going to get excruciatingly hard.
DFN, TATH, PP are the three albums I have been dreading voting on. Each click makes me feel dirtier, like I'm a "facebook fanpage" fan

I think I might just start voting for Grace, Too, because I know it won't get voted off until the last round, if then...it will be an epic showdown between Grace and Nautical.

I quite like the stabbing anger of Fire in the Hole and am surprised so many like it less than 'meh' song like Greasy Jungle. Oh well.
I'm also shocked thar a masterpiece like Terrarium is so under-appreciated.. That is even less fathomable to me.

I'm late on this, but Fire in the hole is by far the worst song of the album for me.

I like Fire in Hole. However, if I listen to the song as objectively as possible I can imagine where one might start picking it apart. It kicks ass, but in a harsh way. Harsh in the sense that this is maybe the earliest time we hear "Screamo Gord". He tears his throat out on "control", "hole", "proof" and "roof". Also the guitar tone isn't the most pleasing. There is absolutely no warmth on this song. Although maybe that is appropriate.
