I posted it in the listening party chat! Damn you!

A3 feels like it has to be Yes, but I can’t find a similar album cover from them.

nick_z · « **Reply #5044 on:** October 16, 2023, 06:53:28 PM »

10th vocalist, though? I'm thinking there shouldn't be many bands that have had 10 vocalists

And yet, I'm at a loss...

I didn't see that, they were just the first sludge metal band I thought of.

I think it might have been hyperbole.

Metro · « **Reply #5048 on:** October 16, 2023, 07:34:51 PM »

No hyperbole. Though not all of those vocalists ended up on albums...

wolfking · « **Reply #5049 on:** October 17, 2023, 04:03:08 AM »

A3 is Black Sabbath - Tyr.

I kind of think so. Certainly in the truer sense of the word; odd time signatures, non-standard song structures, etc.

No, the progressive one is still not guessed.

Black Sabbath was the english group with their 15th(?) record and their 10th(?) singer.

I thought the clue was “English progressive group with their 15th record, etc.,” which is why I thought maybe it was Yes. But maybe my reading comprehension failed me!

Oh, wouldn’t necessarily argue that. Just not the first genre I would associate them with.

Huh, I guess the brain inserts what it wants to see sometimes! Threw myself off, but probably wouldn’t have guessed Sabbath anyway!

Zydar · « **Reply #5059 on:** October 17, 2023, 07:45:20 AM »

I had to look it up to see if it really was their 10th vocalist (it seemed like a lot) but hey, I stand corrected

SwedishGoose · « **Reply #5060 on:** October 17, 2023, 11:21:36 AM »

C2. U.K - U.K

Last couple of hints to keep this moving

D2: Debut album from a French band that made their own fictional language

D3: 2020 album from a contemporary classical artist (I can't think of a better hint for this. If you just google that sentence you can find it pretty easily.)

twosuitsluke · « **Reply #5063 on:** October 17, 2023, 05:34:23 PM »

Are you saying French is a made up language?

Metro · « **Reply #5064 on:** October 17, 2023, 05:46:40 PM »

It might as well be.

All languages are made up.

Well that would be whatever Magma’s debut album is called.

Metro · « **Reply #5067 on:** October 17, 2023, 06:36:43 PM »

It's called Magma and you are correct!

Metro · « **Reply #5068 on:** October 18, 2023, 08:40:07 AM »

I was worried this last one one might be a little too out there for DTF. Oh well.

It's Max Richter - Voices

That’s a really cool album cover at least!

I could throw one together this evening. I have another themed one in mind.

Curious what you guys use to put these together. I don't think my MS Paint skills alone would be sufficient for me to make one.

What I do (and there's surely a better way to do this) is download each individual album artwork, crop it to whatever snippet you want, and then assemble everything using the site Pixlr.

This is the way I do it
