Debut Albums - The Field of 64

THE RESULTS ARE IN:
Moving on to the field of 64 are Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds, Foster the People, Fitz & the Tantrums, and Broken Bells.  Broken Bells received an incredible 100% of votes over Liam Gallagher's new band Beady Eye.  I'm sure his brother, Noel Gallagher, is glad to have that sibling rivalry out of the way early.

THE FIELD IS SET:
This is, by far, the most important round to vote in.  32 debut albums will be eliminated based on YOUR VOTES.  Will The Streets manage to hold off Vampire Weekend?  Can Lady Gaga tackle Amy Winehouse?  Does The Postal Service's only album still hold up today and beat MGMT's debut?  Can Adele's beautifully executed "19" defeat The Mars Volta's stunning "De-Loused in the Comatorium?"  VOTE BELOW and find out.

Voting Ends Sunday March 18th!

Please note: If you are unfamiliar with any of the bands or would like a refresher on what their debut sounded like, I have provided links for each of the 64 artists below:
