E2: Geddy Lee - My Favorite Headache
As a basic rule, if you hate it, you must solely blame Portnoy. If it's good, then you must downplay MP's contribution to the band as not being important anyway, or claim he's just lying. It's the DTF way.

Yeah, ESPECIALLY that one with the arm/flag.  It's killing me.

For a second I thought it was Coldplay "Livin' La Vida Loca", but it's not.

Correct! :tup
Here are some clues for the remaining ones:

B1: Classic Rock, he got the Noble prize in litterature a few years ago. Album from the 80s.
B2: Thrash Metal, one of the Big 4.
B4: Hard Rock, one of their last albums before the leader/singer died.

Ha. I listened once but was definitely not impressed. I couldn't place it right away either.

Zydar, thanks for bringing this game back. It's always fun. Nice variety of genres in this round too.

No problem, I think these are kind of fun to do. And to see others engage and participate in them as well, of course.

Only one more to go! Come on, people  :P

i had the idea to make one that's exclusively pink album covers from metal bands for the heck of it but i won't have a chance to do it until tonight, so
