    Still, it's only the Internet, none of you are actually real people, so ...

    1st - Stratman3142
    2nd - Poopot


    Genuinely enjoyed both of them, and sure as hell couldn't play either myself, but Stratman's was more of what I think of as a "riff", whereas poopot's was more a of a rounded composition to my simplistic ears.

    5 points : @poopot :  Real pace and energy. Music that would make me drive too fast.
    3 points : @Snags : A neat catchy riff. The overall track would have more power if the guitar wasn't quite so high in the mix compared to the drums.

    It's not a competition.
