#474 The Best Album of 2001, Round 1 Match #42: Stereolab vs. Alison Krauss + Union Station

Best Album Brackets Logo #2.jpg

Hey folks!

First pic: On a pink background is a drawing of the black silhouette of a tall hill with some kind of fortress on top of it. In the middle of the hill is a skull like face, as if "cut out" of the picture -- the negative space is pink, like the background. White shapes like big waves crash on each side of the hill. Second pic: Alison Krauss, a white woman with short blonde hair, and her band Union Station, four white men, sit at a restaurant counter with dishes and coffee cups about like they just finished breakfast. Krauss wears a red dress and looks at the camera. The four band members wear black and some look at the camera and some don't.
