Game for audiophiles: Identify this band: - Page 2

Cylob · 19th August 2003, 12:09

Hoorah! Incidentally Jones, I've checked out Ms Lydia Lunch. Not bad. A good remdition of Don't Fear the Reaper with Foetus.

Mr Jones · 19th August 2003, 15:28

heh, where did you think I was pulling the wacky names from, both Lydia and Chrome Cranks are associated with Foetus, Lydia in the song you mentioned and a few others, Chrome Cranks did a EP with them, two tracks by Foetus, and two by them.

Ok, my turn ...

Image edited to prevent the obvious giveaway,...

Cylob · 19th August 2003, 16:33

Stumped again man! Cool drummer, cool guitarist. Are you sure the obvious giveaway is that obvious? Is it Bob the Builder's band?

Mr Jones · 19th August 2003, 20:27

Unless you think that bands name scrawled accross the front of the drum isn't obvious, then I guess not

More clues, just released a new album in April of this year,big underground act of the '80 and it's the second image on google image search...

Cylob · 20th August 2003, 09:17

Haven't heard of any of those bands zootm (obviously I'm not up-to-date on British metal). The Darkness are giving me all the metal I need at present. Good to see a band bringing back the hair.

80's underground eh - that's why I'm struggling. I was a new waver in the 80's, hell I even liked Spandau Ballet!

Mr Jones · 20th August 2003, 09:21

They actually go as far back as 1976....

Put you out of your misery, it's The Cramps

, gotta admit I cheated a little bit there, the lead singer, Lux Interior, isn't in the picture, but you should have got it from the guitar player , Poison Ivy...

Check out the latest album, Fiends of Dope Island

Cylob · 20th August 2003, 09:38

Damn!!!! I thought it was the Cramps (even looked at their page on AMG). The missing members threw it, I thought it was a weird two-some. Thanks for the recommendation.

As I tell my kids - weird is good.

Cylob · 22nd August 2003, 14:43

A bit of an easy one:

http://www.geocities.com/cylob2003/2

Cylob · 2nd January 2004, 12:38

Okay, time's up. It was BRMC.

Another....

A clue..... Madchester..

marvinbarcelona · 2nd January 2004, 15:49

Happy Mondays....can't mistake Bez.

marvinbarcelona · 2nd January 2004, 15:59

Easy one, very easy one;

No peaking at the address people.

Cylob · 2nd January 2004, 17:16

Easy - MC Hammer.

ScorLibran · 2nd January 2004, 20:48

Bootsy Collins

(No, I didn't look at the url)

marvinbarcelona · 2nd January 2004, 20:50

Well done, ScorLibran, for it is the legend that is Bootsy.

Cylob · 2nd January 2004, 21:12

Who?

Thx! I'm a big fan of Deee-Lite and Norman Cook, who (among many others) have done work with Bootsy, so I know his "look" quite well.

Here's an easy one (what he's holding in his hand will make it a dead giveaway)....

Cylob · 2nd January 2004, 21:17

Is it Alanis Morisette?

ScorLibran · 2nd January 2004, 21:18

Only if she's having a REALLY bad hair day.

(You're too funny.

)

Cylob · 2nd January 2004, 21:20

Okay. Is it............. Jimmy Page?

ScorLibran · 2nd January 2004, 21:29

Yep. But now I can't get the horrible image of Alanis Morissette with a beard outta my head.

Here's one a little more obscure...

Cylob · 2nd January 2004, 21:40

Damn! It's Alanis Morisette again!!!

*sigh*

How about a duel marvin - pistols at dawn? It'd be more sporting.

Is it, Liz Phair? I think the mouth's too wide to be Liz, but it's a guess.

ScorLibran · 3rd January 2004, 10:00

You guessed right! Liz it is.

How about...

marvinbarcelona · 3rd January 2004, 10:35

I was going to post the exact same picture of George Clinton (for 'tis he), but went for Bootsy instead.

Should be a very easy one for the elder statesmen of this forum of which there seem to be a few of us.

ScorLibran · 3rd January 2004, 10:40

I knew you'd get it, Marvin. Kudos!

(The Funkadelic connection between Bootsy Collins and George Clinton was too easy, I'm sure.

)

marvinbarcelona · 3rd January 2004, 10:47

....and Parliament and James Brown.

sidd · 3rd January 2004, 10:59

I'm 33, not 333.

ScorLibran · 3rd January 2004, 18:27

@sidd: The guy with his hand out (if that's the one you're referring to) is George Clinton, Grand Funkmaster Extraordinaire (as I think of him), of Parliament and Funkadelic fame, among many, many other contributions to the genre.

Here's another. (...and Cylob, to answer your question before you ask it... No, it's not Alanis Morissette.

)

Cylob · 3rd January 2004, 18:34

Is it Janis Joplin?

marvinbarcelona · 3rd January 2004, 18:44

They had their big hit in 1979. The band are still going, though some of the members have side projects and one of them now has a tv career.

Second picture clue....a give away.

No. But the similarity is striking.

@Marvin: I know I've seen the guy in your last pic, but I can't associate it with a name...

Cylob · 3rd January 2004, 21:08

Squeeze (Cool For Cats).

Right then.....

marvinbarcelona · 3rd January 2004, 21:51

Correct Cylob. I thought the last picture was a give away.

I have no idea who the hell that is.

ScorLibran · 4th January 2004, 05:30

Oh Geez...I know who she is. And she's in a genre I really like, too.....trying to reach for the name.....

Cylob · 4th January 2004, 08:58

2 clues...

Initials J.H.

She's just formed this band (in addition to the solo career)

Not really associated with riot grrrl, more of a US PJ Harvey.

..I still haven't a clue who your Janis Joplin look-a-like is.

DJ Egg · 4th January 2004, 09:51

Juliana Hatfield

hmm, Scor's guess4.gif . . .

I was thinking Alvin Lee (Ten Years After)
but I could well be wrong, hehe.
Nah, the hair's too dark methinks.
Dang, I know that face!
*racks brain*

oh yeah, I guess you'll want one from me then...

ok

Cylob · 4th January 2004, 11:15

I don't recognise this nutter.

Is it Mark E Smith (on a good day)?
