Remeraber that time the Awesome Comus organised a battle of the banRAB for the prog/psychedelic/classic rock forums? And wasn't it awesome? Well here's the second season of that, but this time all Rock, Metal, Prog and Psychedelic is allowed!

The nominations and seeding procedure will be as follows:

Each meraber may nominate 10 new banRAB, if a band has already be nominated they may add extra support to other nominated banRAB to increase their chances in seeding. There is no limit to this. If you nominate another band that is already nominated it will count as one more vote of support. You can only post twice, once for nominations and initial support, and then later to support banRAB that have since been nominated.

For the seeding, each band will be put into one of 5 tiers, the most nominated banRAB will be in the first and so on.

Round one will comprise of many polls of 5 banRAB, each poll will run for 2 days simultaneously with 4 other polls. The banRAB chosen for each poll will be one from each tier.
