If I weren't at work right now I'd totally make a new one where every square is a different snippit of Seeds Of Love by Tears For Fears. :neverusethis:

Yes to both :tup

Solved in just over an hour. That’s gotta be a record

Go team! I love this game so much. That was a great idea for a theme Metropolaris, maybe I'll do one only featuring lizards and wizards

Not sure I can name a single album with a gizzard on the cover :lol

The real question is, how many album covers with wizards on can I find, that AREN'T Power Metal?

I can think of one:  Man of Miracles by Styx.

C1-Pink Floyd-The Final Cut?

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

How the fuck are you so good at this?  :lol

I've definitely learnt I'm a very visual learner. My brain connects album art to the music and helps me remember all the bands/albums out there I think.

Helps that I'm obsessive. Saying that, I probably couldn't tell you the lyrics to most of my favourite artists.

I'm more impressed with the range of genres that you're still able to pin point these covers to at pace.

The brain's a fucking crazy thing man. I don't even listen to Have a Nice Life, I just remember it being sent in a roulette back when I first started participating in them. I probably listened to the album once.

I recognised the album art but took a while to remember the artist.

Luke listens to a lot of the stuff I listen to, apparently. :lol

Yea, it helps knowing the tastes of you guys, as it can narrow it down for sure.

True.  I guess really knowing the taste of the specific poster would help.  Still crazy impressive though.

The rest of these are ones I'm sure I know. I'm confident I've listened to A2 in the last year,  is D4 a Roger Dean (famous for Yes album art) piece?

B1: Dan Terminus - The Wrath of Code

I thought A3 was Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds - Murder Ballads, but it's not.

Yea, I wouldn't have got B1. I thought A3 was Trans-Siberian Orchestra or some shit :lol
