ghostchild OFFLINE Die Posts: 2006	Neither one of these are really my kind of thing. Too repetitive in both cases, I think. It's basically a toss-up but I'll pick Ben Howard.

frankB OFFLINE Die Ghostface Posts: 3091	Out of ten Promise 8 Fur Lined 6 I like the concept of the Ben Howard song. Up close, personal, belongs in an art house film. Other one is not really my thing. Parts of it were good though, nice build at the end.

Eye OFFLINE Is Alex Milton Posts: 1105	I agree that both are a bit repetitive. That being said, the Ben Howard one is kind of nice in it's simplicity. The How to Destroy Angels one had a cool beat at times. Overall, I liked the Ben Howard track more. So I am going with that one.

DON OFFLINE Die Halp me, pls! Mein ice-cream ist am melting! Posts: 4445	These songs remind me of the pleasing simplicity of some of Tim Bowness songs (but they are not as good). Agreed on the Ben Howard arthouse tune. It got the pie.

plasmate74 OFFLINE The Eternal E Posts: 322	The Ben Howard song is an uninspiring affair. The unrelenting beat and the production and layering of melodies (esp at the end) in the HTDA song is awesome. My pick is Fur Lined.

I don't think How to Destroy Angels is going to catch up and I think Ben Howard has this one.
