In a group setting, if I'm slowing/snaring, should I use Largo's Absonant Binding or Selo's Consonant Chain? I've heard people advocate both. What say you all?

I'm not a bard expert. Looking at the wiki, the main problem I see with Largos is it is Pbaoe, so you will be building up agro on other mobs in camp if your group is pulling multiple mobs and AoE mezing. So the mob is more likely to go after the Bard when Mez breaks.

Selo's single target nature is easier for agro management when you are focusing one mob down at a time. It also has snare built in, so you still have the ability to weave in two other songs.

Largos would be nice in a scenario where you need to slow multiple mobs, like if there is an emergency where the group has lost control of multiiple mobs.

I could also see a scenario where a group with charmed pets would want Largos, as the charmed pets would become slowed on a charm break. It could make dealing with charm breaks easier.
