Megadave defeats Iced Earth. IE will have two more matchups this league.
Deep Purple easily ends Soundgarden's GMAC run. They've earned a matchup in League 1 with Iron Maiden.
Bruce Dickinson trounces Blind Guardian. Blind Guardian is done, and it'll be Motörhead in the next league.
Rush earns the right to advance to League 1 by beating Death, who shows up two more times in League 2.

Dirt >>>>>
It's not even close. You're doing a disservice to yourself as a music fan if you don't vote for Dirt. Don't @ me.

I honestly don't care for either Exodus (bar Tempo Of The Damned) or Pantera (bar like 3 songs), but Cowboys has some of those songs.

Walls Of Jericho beats one of the less good classic Slayer albums.

Classic of the genre vs. overrated hard rock album with 3 good songs. Anti-growl bias probably gonna prevail though.
