Feel like I should know C3 - thought it was Omnium Gatherum but apparently not. B4 looks familiar also.

A1, B2 and C2 are vague enough so that I won't be surprised if I know them, but also won't be surprised if I don't.

No idea about the rest.

A4 and B2 are death and thrash metal releases, respectively, right?

The only one I knew was Crimson.  Three puzzles and I think there were perhaps two albums I've even HEARD of, let alone know the album covers enough to guess.

I barely know some of the GENRES.  "Trip-hop"??

B4-Downfall of Nur-Umbras De Barbagia
would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.  ;D
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol

I've got nothing for this one, but I've got another one ready to go if no else wants to go next. It will (hopefully) be a little easier.

I think A1 will get guessed eventually, it's obscure but I know for sure it's been shared in roulettes etc.

For A4, if I went with a different album someone would guess it for sure. The singer is somehow connected to Opeth and Paradise Lost without ever being in either of those bands :angel:

B1 is maybe too hard, I don't know... 2011 album

I think many of you would love C2, I didn't know it was obscure around here. Even though this album is their debut from 2017 it reminds me of Wishbone Ash

BTW if anyone is ready to post the next one I will reveal everything
