Ugh, I know.  Hated voting against In Rainbows, but it had to be done.  Also hated voting against Yoshimi and BSS.

Looks like they're winning right now.

Muffin_Buns:
Radiohead - Kid A (Ooh, this was hard. This one pretty much came down to the fact that Yoshimi's title track really annoys me for some reason)
Fugazi - The Argument
Death From Above 1979 - You're a Woman, I'm a Machine (Go DFA go! You can do it!)
Mogwai - Happy Songs for Happy People

LCD Soundsystem - Sound of Silver (It hurts me to knock out Sunset Tree, but Sound of Silver is just too amazing)
Broken Social Scene - You Forgot It in People
TV on the Radio - Return to Cookie Mountain (Boris has never really clicked with me for some reason)
Interpol - Turn on the Bright Lights (Hissing Fauna is a really fun album, but TotBL is too cool to go out just yet)

Daft Punk - Discovery
The Avalanches - Since I Left You
Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Lift Your Skinny Fists... (Stars has some really good songs, but I think GYBE has the better overall album)
Modest Mouse - The Moon and Antarctica (sorry BSS)

Wilco - Yankee Hotel Foxtrot (Seriously people, MPP needs to go. Now.)
Yo La Tengo - I am Not Afraid of You and I Will Beat Your Ass
Arcade Fire - Funeral
Wolf Parade - Apologies to the Queen Mary

I Am Not Amused:
Radiohead - Kid A (Did I mention that I really think that Yoshimi is kind of a shitty album?)
Franz Ferdinand - Franz Ferdinand (OH COME ON HOW DOES THIS BEAT THE BOOKS DOUBLE TEE EFF, whatever, I still don't really like The Argument)

Death From Above 1979 - You're A Woman, I'm A Machine (Finally, a legitimate reason to vote against that utterly boring Low album)
Mogwai - Happy Songs For Happy People (The fact that his album lost to Agahgoeiahpgalloch ruined Ben Gibbard's wedding. I hope you assholes are happy)

The Mountain Goats - The Sunset Tree (I really don't get LCD Soundsystem. I really, really don't. Live, they're fucking spectacular, but it just loses some punch on album for me)
Broken Social Scene - You Forgot It in People (This is quite the quality disc, though Iron & Wine getting kicked out makes me sad)

TV on the Radio - Return to Cookie Mountain (Nice, TVOTR is responsible for knocking our first number one seed out of the tournament)
Of Montreal - Hissing Fauna, Are You the Destroyer? (Boo to Interpol beating the Postal Service. A plague on both your houses.)

Okkervil River - Black Sheep Boy (I voted for the Decemberists last round against Daft Punk and I like BSB a lot better. That's Backstreet Boys, for those uninitiated.)
The Avalances - Since I Left You (What the fuck. I cannot disagree vehemently enough about the Avalanches vs. Girl Talk. GT is not "everything goes" and its easily as carefully considered as Since I Left You, just in a completely different and wonderfully more immediate way.)

Godspeed You Black Emperor - Lift Yr Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven (Pleasantly surprised to see Stars beat Panda Bear. Doesn't Matter Skinny Fists is just too wonderful)
Modest Mouse - The Moon and Antarctica (I'm not so much into BSS' self-titled release, really. Kind of bores me.)

Wilco - Yankee Hotel Foxtrot (Thank the lord this beat BMSR. I am disappointed but not surprised Elliott lost to Animal Collective. That said, hopefully here is revenge.)
Sigur Ros - Agaetis Byrjun (I thought the stupid Strokes backlash was over. Is This It? is maybe the best pure rock n roll album of our generation. I am furious.)

Arcade Fire - Funeral (Nice match! That being said, Funeral has made me cry, which In Rainbows has not done.)
Mogwai - Mr. Beast (OH COME ON A DOLLY PARTON CASE REALLY. This match is awful.)

Yayniall:
Flaming Lips - Yoshimi

Low - Things we lost in the fire
Mogwai - Happy Songs

LCD Soundsystem - Sound of silver
Broken Social Scene - Forgot it in people
