It started as a joke ten years ago: March Sadness, a tournament where the 64 saddest songs faced off bracket by bracket, supported by essays illustrating their merit and voted on by the public, until a winner emerged.

Every March now brings a new theme, courtesy of the Official Selection Committee, Ander Monson and Megan Campbell. Grunge songs fight for victory over the course of March Plaidness; one-hit wonders take center stage under the March Fadness spotlight. Music fans and writers enter the lottery, submit tournament essays and extracurricular pieces, and battle it out online to get enough votes for their song to advance-and hopefully win. For the first time in print, Hit Repeat Until I Hate Music: The March Xness Anthology spans Xness history with essays representing nearly a decade of musical fandom.

Spectators gawk, musicians repost, aficionados argue, and readers rejoice with each new essay...but in the March Xness arena, even the trash talk is friendly, and the camaraderie built around music brings fans back each March to hit repeat.
