Number 35 is really good indeed.

 

[The Flash]

33-36

35 was pretty cool.

 

[Night Prowler]

34 and 35.

35 is one of my favorite instrumentals ever. Epic.

33 was good, lots of interesting material, if overlong — new band for me
34 was better: more focused, more concise, more metal

35 has tension and menace — excellent track.
36 is good as well, but 35 is better

 

[Ariana]

34 and 35.
But 36 was quite good too, it's unfair that one of these has to go that early.

 

[Forostar]

About the second pair: In the end I chose for 36 because I find its melodies (and harmonies) more irresistable.

 

[MrKnickerbocker]

Well, I voted. Not that either of my votes matter, but 33 and 36.

 

[Brigantium]

All of these were great, I thought. Went for Megadeth and Dark Tranquility in the end, although I'm very struck how similar Opeth sound to Katatonia.

 

[The Flash]

Bands of the same time and place, and frontmen are best friends. Although Opeth sounds nothing like Katatonia except for their early albums.

 

[Collin]

34 and 36
Almost voted for 33 though.

 

[Unknown One]

34, 35. 36 is really good too.

Reckon so? I thought it was more the other way round, they've followed a similar direction in recent years.

@Forostar
The link doesn't work anymore --what's track #35?

 

[Forostar]

Thanks for telling me this, Cried. Fixed!

 

[CriedWhenBrucieLeft]

When The Water Breaks: Loads of musicianship going on here; not really getting that excited though.
Megadeth: Really enjoyed this, so pretty easy decision...
Vote goes with Dialetic Chaos (#34).
Dark Tranquility: Pretty epic. Neat & tidy track. Good.
Opeth: Never listened to Opeth before. Liked this track quite a lot. Very nice.
Vote goes with Epilogue (#36).

 

[The Flash]

Opeth: Never listened to Opeth before.

You should. They're awesome.
