Like the NCAA bracket, we've got 64 bands, but unlike the NCAA,
we're running match-ups every half hour in an online vote-off.

Maybe you've imagined it in your mind, but now you'll get to hear it! The Strokes vs. the White Stripes! The Cure vs. Depeche Mode! The Beastie Boys vs. Outkast! Elvis Costello vs. Talking Heads... living up to the names, the match-ups truly are mad.

The planning was anything but harebrained, however. We started with nearly 200 artists, and pared them down. We even came up with a few categories: '80s College Rock, '90s Alternative, Classic Rock, Indie Rock, Punk, Rap/Hip Hop, Funk/Soul/R&B and Oldies/Original Rockers.
