The long-awaited second round of the Dark Tranquillity song survivor! You know what to do, 16 pairs, choose the song you want to continue into the next round. As Villain pointed out in the last round, there weren't enough songs to get an even number of pairs. I added a song from the demo, to balance things out, and pitted it against a song that would continue into the next round anyway. There are 7 days to vote. You can change your votes with a message that clearly states it. There can only be one!

To a Bitter Halt - Insanity's Crescendo
Shadow Duet - Dreamlore Degenerate
Hedon - In Tears Bereaved
Punish My Heaven - Day to End
Edenspring - Silence, and the Firmament Withdrew
ThereIn - The Wonders at Your Feet
Of Chaos and Eternal Night - Scythe, Rage and Roses
The Emptiness from which I Fed - Of Melancholy Burning
Feast of Burden - Zodijackyl Light
The Sun Fired Blanks - Rundown
Lethe - (Midwinter) Beyond Enlightenement
The Mind's Eye - A Bolt of Blazing Gold
Crimson Winds - Through Ebony Archways
Constant - The Gallery
Haven - On Your Time
Auctioned - Indifferent Suns

Thinking this thing will go to Lethe :rolleyes:
 
I'm not too sure if I want to make this into a poll. As far as I understand, the cheating that is happening on the Opeth board is just as possible here, and since matches are usually quite tight, the results couldn't be trusted. The other alternative would be to only count votes that have a post along with them, but we could as well use this system in that case.

Towards a Bitter Halt (both are emotional, but Bitter touches me more, and the lyrics mean something :p)
Shadow Duet (not really a contest)
Hedon (Hedon would have won before it was composed)
Day to End (At the moment, I'm alot more interested in this song)
Edenspring (I love the "amiga" melody in the beginning)
ThereIn (Wonders is nice, but this was the first DT song I heard)
Of Chaos and Eternal Night (so pound the drum, and strike the chords of chaos...)
The Emptiness from which I Fed (I tend to favour the faster stuff)
Zodijackyl Light (both have nice riffing, but Zodijackyl is a classic I couldn't vote off)
The Sun Fired Blanks (Sun is just about the catchiest DT song I can think of)
Lethe (A bit overplayed, but still an excellent song)
A Bolt of Blazing Gold (The best DT song ever)
Crimson Winds (Underrated classic)
The Gallery (I never got what was so great about Constant...)
On Your Time (both great songs, but the clean vox made me choose On)
Auctioned (seems like I eliminated every Haven song...)
