XTc are on my Never Again list. MBV were all right, although they were on their way down when this was released

B walks over

A part of me refuses to give MBV a vote but this one's okay, which makes it a hundred times better than whatever the hell that XTC song is. That sounds like it belongs on the GTA V radio station hosted by Kenny fuckin' Loggins.

Hmm, at the time I found Nonsuch so disappointing that I traded it back in after a couple of listens. "Then She Appeared" is a perfect jangle pop song, though.

Loveless was one of my favorite albums at the time and it still sounds great to my ears.

Tough call, but I'll go with A.

A very weird pick for XTC, considering how all of Apple Venus went untouched this cup too. Not one of their best moments, and I also feel like the audio quality in that video only makes things murkier. But it's up against MBV, so A.

Then it follows that ∀ k ∈ K: K ∈ U ⇒ k ∉ D

I'm struggling with both of these which I find unappealing for different reasons.

A I guess.

Bloody hell, XTC are exactly the kind of backwards looking dogshit that has marred this cup. Doesn't help that their forced quirkiness really grates, too.

And I don't want to abstain in the final, but the MBV choice is an uninspired obvious choice, and it's a tedious fucker of an album, too. It's just an aimless chug with generic indie vocals. Dinosaur Jr doing vacuum-cleaning.

I'm actually going to vote for XTC, which is an eventuality I never thought possible.

XTC don't like me. I don't know what I have ever done to them, but they seem really really intent on making me suffer.

B isn't my favourite from the album but, you know, blessed relief and all that.
