I really love A Thousand Leaves but unfortunatly for it, EVOL is my favorite Sonic Youth album and therefore I vote on it.

I have to go with EVOL, it's just too dark and beautiful, although 1,000 leaves has some great songs.

Too bad it had to face EVOL in the first round, I'd like to see it pass the first rounds. It's fantastic.

This is the toughest choice out of the first round. I'm gonna go with A Thousand Leaves...but I may regret the decision.

EVOL is a great album, its just that A Thousand Leaves is greater imo.

Too bad for a Thousand Leaves that I have been listening to EVOL for about 5 days straight now.... I guess I'm just in an EVOL kinda mood.

Damn, this is definitely the toughest round one face-off... Had to go with EVOL though, as it's one of the most important albums in my musical development, and also because of the opening to Tom Violence, amng other things....

I'm just surprised that the difference in votes in this tie is greater than it is in the one between CIS and Sonic Nurse.
