D1 looks like the Rush DVD compilation Rush Replay X3 boxset cover but not sure this fits the game, assuming it has to be album covers?

It's pretty killer. Has a lot of harsh vocals (which you probably could guess from the band name), so if that's not your thing you won't like it. But it has a lot of cool moments in it

C3's really bugging me. It looks really familiar, but I can't place where I've seen it

E1 is the one that's bugging me. I'm sure I know it! I keep thinking it's one of the "neo-prog" bands of the 80s, but I don't have it yet.

C3: Enisum - Arpitanian Lands

From the description for A2, the first thing that sprang to mind was Snarky Puppy, but that doesn't seem to line up.

OK, E1 was not what I thought it was. I assumed the head was in the top right corner of the full cover.

A2: When I read the clue, I immediately thought of The Polyphonic Spree (who had c. 24 members at one point, but could have lost some in the meantime), but I don't think it's them. And it's certainly not this now, but the colour scheme initially made me think of Transatlantic's SMPT:e.

After 2 minutes of super serious Wikipedia desk research I found:

people on this board are actual music fans who developed taste in music and not casual listeners who are following current fashion trends and listening to only current commercial hits.
