.... and/or anyone else who hasn't voted yet, would you still like to make a choice in Group D (with a vote) as long as this group is open?

Follow this link to Group D: http://forum.maidenfans.com/threads/tournament-of-instrumentals-3rd-r-group-d.29493/

When I am writing this, we have one pair with the same amount of votes.

Please note:
If one is ahead by a difference of one vote, just at the moment you're planning to make your contribution, do not think your vote is not welcome anymore. Just decide which one you want to go through to the next round (both pairs if you wish) and then we'll see if a tie is gone or not. (If it stays a tie, I'll think of something). Thank you!
(of course, your votes are also welcome in all other battles, but this one needs extra attention, that's why I am specifically asking)
 
Suicide & Redemption/Stream of Consciousness might be the most appropriate matchup this game has seen so far. SoC is a very Metallica styled instrumental, focusing more on riffs than soloing/crazy guitar/key unisons. Very much influenced by Call of Ktulu and Orion. And Suicide & Redemption is a modern take on that from Metallica.
SoC is a much more solid effort overall though. Suicide is good but it drags at times, while SoC remains exciting for the entire 11 minutes. If it was Ktulu though this choice would be much more difficult. Both are top ten worthy I think.
 
Newsflash from Group C:
Eliminated: Dokken - Mr. Scary & Soilwork - Entering the Diabolique
To the Eight Finals: Metallica - The Call of Ktulu & Iron Maiden - Transylvania
 
1 and 3. I know DT will get enough love here; I want to show some appreciation for Suicide. I think it's criminally underrated. For me, it's the equal of Ktulu or Orion and far better than To Live.
 
Am I the only person on the planet who ranks To Live over the other Metallica instrumentals apart from Ktulu?
 
Suicide and Redemption is to Stream of Consciousness as Steve McQueen is to Pauley Shore. The former is completely badass, the latter is ... not.
