Kraftwerk Bracket: Sulk (7) v. Motion Picture Soundtrack (10)

"Sulk"
The Bends
(7)

From Pitchfork:

"Okay, wait. Jimmy Eat World have released a new song and called it... "Pain"? This is actually great. I hope this monosyllabic truth-in-advertising extends to singles from other artists. Look out for the Rolling Stones' "Old", Linkin Park's "Angst", R.E.M.'s "Dull", and "Dead" from Nirvana's upcoming box set."

Don't get lazy on m PFork! How could you miss "Sulk"?

"Motion Picture Soundtrack"
Kid A
(10)
This as an extremely beautiful song that is equally over-regarded and under-appreciated. The blissful harp that enters about two minutes in would fit perfectly in that scene in Disney's Fantasia where the cherubs are running around Mount Olympus. The final 4:30 of alternating nothingness and ambient noise raises an eyebrow, however.
