An interesting tie. Two quite similar albums, generally liked almost equally by fans of each.

If EVOL doesn't win I'm going to be very dissapointed.

I'm much more of an EVOL fan...


although Cotton Crown almost makes up for Sister's relative lacking.

EVOL is a tad overrated in my book. The band was never better than they were on Sister.

I predict that this will be a close one...and that Sister will win.

I voted for Sister, but I like these albums a similar amount. Sister gets it because of 'Schizo' (rather predictably). The winner of this will get whipped by the winner of the other semi!!!!

This is extremely difficult... I love them both with a passion, they represent a very creative, carefree and formative period in my life.
EVOL wins... but only by a whisker.

This is a tough one. I'm going to go with EVOL, but I don't care if it wins, because they're both good.

similar albums???

it's classic rocking (direction : 70's) sister versus indie rocking (direction : 90's) evol
I know they are time reverse from what I say, but expressway fits very well with the nurse tour: EVOL

C'mon, it's obvious that Sister is the champ.

Sister's great and all. But a couple of parts on that album really bug me. Like the drums on Schizophrenia. That track is MINDBLOWING on Year Punk Broke. But on Sister it sounds a little subdued.

But EVOL is genius from start to finish. It should win.
