2122-hadn’t heard of any from the last 2 groups, liked the videos of the last matchup, not the music.

First one was difficult.  Second one was easy.

The third and fourth ones I had to use a Google coin flip to decide.  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Because I've heard of absolutely none of these and they were all coin tosses.  For those reasons...

You didn't hear Change and Last Resort nine bazillion times back in the day?  Or play Guitar Hero 2?  Or whichever Guitar Hero had that Killswitch song...

Being that I actually just played through GH II a month ago, I was starting to feel gas lighted.  But no, they aren't on the set list.  If these are bonus tracks (which is possible) I never played them much. (https://techcrunch.com/2006/10/10/guitar-hero-2-track-list/)

Yes they are.  I'm like a thousand percent confident in that.  You need to read gud. 

edit: I was referring to Beast & the Harlot.  Guess that's the source of confusion

[RH | 4,916]

I went back and listened to that song a bit more.  When I got to the solos, I did recall that one.  I kind of breezed through that section.

So, ok.  I can recall hearing one song on this list.

I enjoy these polls because I can either vote for my favorite bands/songs to win but I also learn about new bands/songs I never heard of, which is what pretty much every song here is minus Papa Roach. Actually, I know of Avenged Sevenfold but couldn't tell you what they sing. But as it turns out I'm not a fan of any one of these songs so I chose almost at random.

This was the "trigger doner" round.  But I would have at least assumed people knew Deftones

I’ve seen Deftones and Papa Roach (right before they blew up). Both were really fun shows. That’s the only Killswitch song I know, it’s decent. All of it is too loud for my taste at this age

1122. I love the Call Boy song, it's si much fun!

I had a tough call on the last two song selections, but I wanted two of the silliest songs from both bands

Oh, I do know of Deftones, never listened to them though

Change and Last Resort are the only two that I recognize. Last Resort was inescapable on MTV back in the day.

Final bumpage.

Kind of surprised by the A7X results, as that's the only race that isn't close.  I intentionally tried to get some of the more... "flavorful" song/video combos this round, especially that one
