Reminder/Disclaimer
This started as @AltMusicBrownlow then became @7SongsCup, before we moved to a title that hopefully made it clear what we are about. It was set up as an alternative to @MusicBrownlow where the 'big bands', stars and pop artists are being covered. This comp will be more focused on rock-based bands, mostly of the heavier and/or alternative variety. (Of course there will be bands that have charted, and there WILL be arguments regarding genre and whether or not a band is alternative or heavy enough… I know ;)).
Even when bands come up from the Library (or if a punter gets to choose) there are a few things to consider before they get a run:
* First priority is that they are guitar-based!
* Second: they are ROCK PLUS at least one of the following:punk, alternative, indie (as in what was called 'Independent Music in 90s & earlier), metal, hard rock, rock, ska, heavy, and all of their related genres. If you get the chance to select a band for our comp, please keep this in mind.
* Bands must have a body of work to draw upon - usually at least 2 LPs (but again there will be exceptions for bands that have had a big influence with lesser releases, ala The Sex Pistols.
Scroll to the bottom of this page to see all the bands we have done so far to get an idea of what we are about :). NB: After 21 Seasons (3 complete series) and band may come up again. We have grown from our humble beginnings of a few followers to a few more followers, so this gives new punters a chance at some old favourites already done. Also give the band a chance to compete with later bands that had more punters involved.
See below for HOW groups/artists are chosen for our Rounds.
7Rock Store
7Rock Lists now has a store thanks to the logo design of @KlausBremner.
Rounds
- Each round is a separate artist/band. Think of these as a 'stable' of songs. Each race is a 'Stable Stakes' to see which songs will represent the stable in the Cup.
- Artists/bands are selected randomly from my GooglePlay Library. (There are over 1,100 artists. Most of these are rock-based, plenty of punk, some metal, etc. Most (not all) of a more alternative nature. People are free to request bands. They will be added to the Library for an equal chance to come up randomly). OR bands will be selected randomly from our yearly album lists, now that we have done most years!
- Exception to this is FIRST & LAST band of a Season, which will be chosen by a random punter that contributed to previous run(s). For ideas on types of bands we will be covering, see the list of bands done so far at bottom of this page.
- If time, I will run a short quiz before announcing each band. Punter that guesses 1st has their first vote count as 2 votes OR they can add an extra song to their list :)
- Bands can only be repeated if 3 Series/21 Seasons have passed between them appearing the first time.
- People are to list UP TO 7 of their favourite songs for the band.
- Each mention counts as 1 vote; there is no order at rounds stage.
- Rounds typically last around 2-3 days. This gives people a chance to 'check out' an artist. (One of main purposes of doing this is for me, and hopefully others, to explore new music :))
Round Winner
- At end of each round a leader board will be posted showing all songs mentioned for that artist
Season
- Each season will consist of 7 rounds.
- After 7 rounds, there will be mention of a Biggest Stable Award. This is the band that had the most songs in their list. (This award takes no notice of individual votes for each song; just how many songs made the list). Then a Cup Field will be put together.
Cup Final Field
- At end of Season a field of 14 songs will 'run the final'.
- The field will be made up of:
- All the top songs from each round. (ie each artists top song WILL be in final). If there is a tie, the song listed 1st will get through (as it reached the lead 1st). Total songs: 7.
- 3 songs will be chosen from the next highest ranking songs from across all Rounds. If a tie - 1st choice to band with the biggest stable, then next biggest and so on. (This shares the selection around - not all from Biggest Stable if on = votes). If still a tie I will determine randomly from the contenders. (I own lots of dice). Total songs: 10.
- Biggest Stable entries: The top 3 bands in the Biggest Stable Award will automatically have their 2nd songs qualify. Total songs: 13.
- Wild Card Entry: A random contributor from Twitter throughout the Season will get to choose a song from ANY that have polled so far. I will announce this at the end of the rounds. If I/we don't hear back from that person with a couple of hours, I will continue to add names to the Tweet until 1 of them gets back to me. First in gets the Wild Card. Total songs: 14.
NB that NO song with less than 3 votes will be eligible for the Cup. All such songs will be dealt with as Wild Card entries.
(So yes, this system does reward a large collection of songs as well as high rating individual songs).
Cup Run
- Once the field of 14 is finalised, voters then have to pick their First 4 (just like in punting).
- Your First 4 IS IN ORDER.
- These will be used as points to determine the cup winner. Points are basically reverse order. So 1st pick = 4 points; 2nd = 3; 3rd = 2; 4th =1.
- Winner is the song with most points.
- Run final over 1 night/24 hours rather than 48. Most know the songs, maintains momentum, and most votes came very early in the 1st one.
Race Terms for Cup
Difference between Winner & Field (in votes):

Series 1 Champion of Champions
Song & Band/Artist | Why it is here. | Run (Votes) | Position (distance from winner) |
---|---|---|---|
War Pigs - Black Sabbath | R-Up S2 (4 lengths bhnd) | What a run. Started 10th in line and even beat other S2 Cup winner, RVM (that also had the lead for some time). (34) | 1st by 1 length. |
Bullet with Butterfly Wings - The Smashing Pumpkins | Won S6 Cup (by length of straight) | A late surge saw the Bullet just fall 1 length short at the end. Finished fantastically. (30) | 2nd by 1 length. |
Rearview Mirror - Pearl Jam | Won S2 Cup (by 4 lengths) | Led for some time. Fight with WarPigs tired it and it was passed by The Bullet down the straight. Shows what a quality line-up Season 2 was. Both in Top 3 of CoC1. (27) | 3rd. 4 lengths. |
Jesus Christ Pose - Soundgarden | Won S4 Cup (by a head) | Jumped early, got bustled around and settled at the back for lot of race. Just over 1/2 way gained a momentum and finished strong. (21) | 4th. 10 lengths |
Orange Crush - R.E.M | R-Up S5 (5 lengths bhnd) | Spent a long time and several stints at the rear, only to surge late and end up leading the 'big pack' that ran together in this race. A solid finish considering it started 11th fav & got revenge on Kickstart who beat it in the S5Cup. (16) | 5th. 15 lengths |
Buy Me A Pony - Spiderbait | Won S1 Cup (by 7 lengths) | Strange race. Started slow, had several surges, but could not break away from this big pack. (15) | 6th. Length of straight. |
Closer - Nine Inch Nails | R-Up S3 (by 2 lengths) | Very slow starter, but then caught the pack and stuck with it, moving towards front of it late in race. Finished about where expected or up a couple spots. (14) | 7th. Length of straight. |
Love Rears Its Ugly Head - Living Colour | R-Up S1 (7 lengths bhnd) | Only 1 length behind the Pony that beat it by 7 lengths in the S1 Cup. Another one that surged at various times but could break from pack. (14) | 8th. Length of straight. |
Seether - Veruca Salt | Won S7 Cup (by 6 lengths) | Big fall from runner that won S7 by 6 lengths. Beat Sanctuary from that same race by only 2 here. (13) | 9th. Length of straight. |
Kick Out the Jams - MC5 | R-Up S4 (by a head) | Started as best of the R-Ups in the race & was doing well mid race before tiring and falling to rear of pack. (12) | 10th. Length of straight. |
Longview - Green Day | Won S3 Cup (by 2 lengths) | Beat Closer by 2 lengths in S3Cup, but Closer returned the favour here. Started well but was overrun. (12) | 11th. Length of straight. |
She Sells Sanctuary - The Cult | R-Up S7 (by 6 lengths) | Finished about where it started. Also had its moments. At least it gained ground on Seether that beat it by 6 lengths in S7Cup. (11) | 12th. Length of straight. |
Kickstart My Heart - Motley Crue | Won S5 Cup (by 5 lengths) | On cup run started 4th favourite. OrangeCrush from same Cup run beat it by 5 lengths. Another that started well but could not kick on. (11) | 13th. Length of straight. |
Cherub Rock - The Smashing Pumpkins | R-Up S6 (length of straight bhnd) | Took far too long to get into race. Spent a lot of energy getting going, but did well to catch the pack and finish alongside other runners, especially when it was part of only stable with 2 runners in the race. (11) | 14th. Length of straight. |

Series 2 Champion of Champions
Song & Band/Artist | Why it is here. | Run (Votes) | Position (distance from winner) |
---|---|---|---|
Berlin Chair - You Am I | Won S9Cup (by 18 lengths) | Timed run well. Built up through race and stormed home late putting a fair gap b/w the 2 front runners and rest of pack. Was the fav going in and performed admirably. (43) | 1st by 3 lengths. |
Kashmir - Led Zeppelin | Won S14Cup (by 9 lengths) | Led for most of the run. Almost held on. A strong fav that held position. (37) | 2nd by 3 lengths. |
Forty-Six & 2 - Tool | R-Up S13Cup (by a nose) | Started well, settled back mid run then finished strong, though well off leaders in the end. A good run for a Cup R-Up. Beat stablemate that won S13Cup & sev winners. (27) | 3rd. 13 lengths off winner. |
Voodoo Child/Chile (Slight Return) - Jimi Hendrix | Won S10Cup (by 3 lengths) | Sat 2nd for 3/4 of the race but faded late. (26) | 4th. 14 lengths off winner. |
Red Right Hand - Nick Cave | Won S11Cup (by 10 lengths) | Started slow, built up momentum, but not enough to challenge leaders. Was 3rd fav going in, so a little disappointing. (24) | 5th. Length of strt. |
Stinkfist - Tool | Won S13Cup (by a nose) | Started strong and rallied again entering the home straight but was overrun down the straight. Both runners from S13 (& Tool stable) in the first 6 is a respectable finish. (23) | 6th. Length of strt. |
All Along the Watchtower - Jimi Hendrix | R-Up S10Cup (by 3 lengths) | Started far too slowly to ever challenge but did round up quite a few runners late in the race to finish slightly above expected. (22) | 7th. Length of strt. |
Welcome to the Jungle - Guns 'N' Roses | Won S12Cup (by 11 lengths) | Jumped from blocks full of enthusiasm, but not in contention for 2nd 1/2. A very disappointing result for the 2nd fav and I am sure the GnR stable are quite surprised with both runners in bottom half of field. (20) | 8th. Length of strt. |
The Mercy Seat - Nick Cave | R-Up S11Cup (by 10 lengths) | Spent most of race maneuvering in the midfield w stints at rear. Finished ahead of more fancied runners in the end. (19) | 9th. Length of strt. |
Sweet Child of Mine - Guns 'N' Roses | R-Up S12Cup (by 11 lengths) | Another to bolt from the barrier only to watch most of field round it up. Tough it improved its pre-race posi, still a disappointing end for the GnR crew. (17) | 10th. Not in strt |
Greg! The Stop Sign - TISM | R-Up S14Cup (by 9 lengths) | Started slow, pushed hard and was within reach of a place late in race before seemingly coming to a stop. Who'da thought? (16) | 11th. Not in strt. |
Holy Wars… Punishment Due - Megadeth | R-Up S9Cup (by 18 lengths) | Least fav runner here leapt from barrier to prove punters wrong, but exhausted itself early and finished a long way from leaders. (13) | 12th. Not in strt. |
Point Man - The Mark of Cain | Won S8Cup (by 3 lengths) | One of the favs going in this is a very disappointing run. Had its moments, but this is what happens when the owners turn up for the Stakes & Cup runs but not the CoC. Not enough support to finish near where pre-race lists indicated. (12) | 13th. Not in strt. |
Interloper - The Mark of Cain | R-Up S8Cup (by 3 lengths) | In a very disappointing finish for the MOC stable and therefore Season8 both runners completely outclassed here today. (11) | 14th. Not in strt. |

Song & Band/Artist | Why it is here. | Run (Votes) | Position (distance from winner) |
---|---|---|---|
Smells Like Teen Spirit - Nirvana | R-Up S18Cup (by 4 lengths) | Old stayer finally beat stablemate Lithium. Got to lead 1/2 way through and held on despite challengers. Bolted home at end. 2nd winner of a CoC that came in as a R-Up in Cup run! (68) | 1st, won by 12 lengths |
Everlong - Foo Fighters | Won S16Cup (by 8 lengths) | Slow start. Spent middle of race fighting for a place and ended up getting a lot of distance on others. (53) | 2nd, 12 lengths of leader |
Lithium - Nirvana | Won S18Cup (by 4 lengths) | Led for a little while, battled out for placing, but dropped back in 2nd half. (46) | 3rd, length of strt bhnd winner |
Midlife Crisis - Faith No More | Won S15Cup (2nd not even in strt) | Was biggest challenger thru middle of race, but slowed at end. (44) | 4th, length of straight bhnd winner |
One - Metallica | Won S19Cup (by 1 length) | Solid run. True stayer built up as run went on. Was well back but almost got to placegetters near end. (42) | 5th, at top of straight bhnd winner |
Master of Puppets - Metallica | R-Up S19Cup (by 1 length) | Followed stablemate through the field. Very strong finish but left run too late. (40) | 6th, not in straight |
Cochise - Audioslave | R-Up S16Cup (8 lengths bhnd) | Was among the placings early race, settled midfield and ran most of run on its own well in front of stragglers, well bhnd winners. Still beat 3 cup runners so good effort. (24) | 7th, Not in sight |
Detroit Rock City - KISS | Won S17Cup (in photo finish) | Only down a spot from pre-race posi, but nowhere near the front runners. (10) | 8th, played up at start and put itself out of race. Well out of site |
Judith - A Perfect Circle | R-Up S17Cup (in a photo) | Horse with no jockey followed its Cup fellow through the run. (7) | 9th, threw rider at start then ran off. |
Prisoner of Society - The Living End | R-Up S15Cup (not even in strt) | Not a lot expected given the length of its Cup loss, and not a lot shown here either. Outclassed. (6) | 10th, went lame |
Demanufacture - Fear Factory | Won S20Cup (by 3 lengths) | Competition just too stiff for this one. Even though a Cup winner, the field was not as strong as others. Could not hack it. (4) | 11th, fell exhausted. |
Dammit - Blink-182 | R-Up S20Cup (by 3 lengths) | In such a rush this one flew from the barriers to stumble and fall not far from them. (3) | 12th, KOed at barriers |
Hiding to Nothing - Bad Dreems | Won S21Cup (by a nose) | New stable clearly intimidated by this quality field and runner scratched when it was a no show. (0) | NA. Truck did not show. |
Mob Rules - Bad Dreems | R-Up S21Cup (by a nose) | Perhaps owners knew what was coming and didn't even bring runners to the track. Sad end for the newcomers. (0) | NA. Truck did not show |

Song & Band/Artist | Why it is here. | Run (Votes) | Position (distance from winner) |
---|---|---|---|
Rearview Mirror - Pearl Jam | Winner S28Cup (by 10 lengths) | An absolute demolishing of the field. Way beyond all expectations. Lapped all runners up to 4th place! (78) | 1st by length of straight. |
Black - Pearl Jam | R-Up S28Cup (by 10 lengths) | Started slow and like it Cup run just kept building into the race until it had passed all comers (bar the winner). Held 2nd easily in the end. (55) | 2nd. Length of straight bhnd winner. |
Glycerine - Bush | Winner S26Cup (by 1/2 length) | A slow stayer. Got to 3rd late in the run and held it by 5 lengths. (32) | 3rd. Not in sight of winner. |
I Wanna Be Sedated - Ramones | Winner S25Cup (by length of straight) | Sat 3rd for first half of run, then got involved with the runners either side of it. (27) | 4th. Lapped by winner |
A Town Called Malice - The Jam | R-Up S24Cup (by a head) | A very consistent run. Very well placed for a R-Up from Cup run. (23) | 5th. Lapped by winner |
Nearly Lost You - Screaming Trees | Winner S24Cup (by a head) | Started slow. Despite being so far from winner, held its own in a quality field. (23) | 6th. Lapped by winner |
Touch Me, I'm Sick - Mudhoney | Winner S27Cup (by 3 lengths) | Inconsistent run. Was up near placings and down near the bottom at various times. (19) | 7th. Lapped by winner |
I Wanna Be Your Dog - Iggy & the Stooges | Winner S22Cup (by 2 lengths) | Pretty disappointing day for probably the most influential band in the race. Still finished around where it started. (18) | 8th. Lapped by winner |
Just One Fix - Ministry | R-Up S26Cup (by 1/2 length) | Bolted up to about 4th for some of the run, fell back and then had a little surge near the end. (16) | 9th. Lapped by winner |
Walk This Way - Aerosmith | R-UpS27Cup (by 3 lengths) | Took forever to emerge, but proved to be an old stayer and breezed past a few others late. (15) | 10th. Lapped by winner |
Search & Destroy - Iggy & the Stooges | R-Up S22Cup (by 2 lengths) | Started in a blaze of glory, but tired quickly and fell towards rear of pack. (14) | 11th. Lapped by winner |
Self Abuser - The Fauves | R-Up S23Cup (by 10 lengths) | Sat at back for a long time, surged up a few spots, but was then in a battle for the wooden spoon. A late surge ensured it did not get the spoon. (14) | 12th. Lapped by winner |
Blitzkrieg Bop - Ramones | R-Up S25Cup (by length of straight) | Another to tire itself by going too hard too early. Just kept sliding back through the field. (13) | 13th. Lapped by winner |
(Don't Fear) The Reaper - Blue Oyster Cult | Winner S23Cup (by 10 lengths) | A disappointing run from one of the favourites based upon its big Cup win. It ran around mid field for a while but ended up at the back of the pack. (12) | 14th. Lapped by winner |
