Ides of March vs Moonchild
Wrathchild vs Infinite Dreams
Murders in the Rue Morgue vs Can I Play With Madness
Another Life
vs The Evil that Men Do
Genghis Khan vs Massacre
Innocent Exile vs Seventh Son of a Seventh Son
Killers
vs The Prophecy
Twilight Zone vs The Clairvoyant
Prodigal Son
vs Black Bart Blues
Purgatory vs Sheriff of Huddersfield
Drifter vs Only the Good Die Young

6-5 for SSOASS.

Closer than I had anticipated, no doubt due to the b-sides. I knew SSOASS would win though :P
 
6-5 Killers, which is pretty surprising as I much prefer 7th Son as a whole.

The only song I voted for that isn't in line with the majority is Ides of March.

6-5 to 'Killers' which is total nonsense but due to the number of b-sides used to make up the numbers on 'Seventh Son of a Seventh Son'.

7-4 for Killers. Not easy to choose between the two openers , "Wrathchild"/"Infinite Dreams" and "Murders..."/ "...Madness".
 
7th Son advances, setting up the first battle of the quarterfinal Powerslave versus Number of the Beast
 
9-2 Powerslave. TNOTB songs were the title track and "Total Eclipse". Very easy round, particularly the last match.
 
B-sides made it closer than I thought it would be

Invaders/Aces High
Children of the Damned/Two Minutes
Prisoner

22AA/Flash of the Blade
Prowler '88/Duellists
Number of the Beast
/Back in the Village
Run to the Hills/Powerslave
Gangland
/King of Twilight
Total Eclipse/Rainbow's Gold
Charlotte '88
/Mission from 'Arry
Hallowed/ROTAM

6-5 Powerslave
 
Invaders/Aces High
