Is D2 Anno Domini High Definition by Riverside?
D2 reminds me of COB's Hatecrew Death Roll
I'll kick myself if it's either of these, but it definitely isn't.

I was thinking Nuclear Assault - Game Over initially.

I've been opening this game at random for the whole day, looking at the pictures. At some point I thought D2 was Judas Priest - Firepower but compared it to the picture and no dice. I probably don't know any of these. :lol
I checked every Judas Priest cover because I thought it could be more of them but no :lol
...the years just pass like trains
I wave but they don't slow down...

Gonna need some clues chief

I'll post some later this morning.

There's some here no one would get without clues.  You see Oasis, so think outside the metal realm for a few of these.
Everyone else, except Wolfking is wrong.

You definitely did. I was totally looking at these with your musical tastes in mind, but maybe I need to reevaluate.

B4: weird prog rock... Echolyn?

C1: no idea
C2: Savatage
C3: Savatage
C4: Evergrey - Hymns for the Broken

D1: Anathema
D2: Judas Priest
D3: Bob Marley
D4: Subsignal: The Beacons Of Somewhere Sometime except there's no guy on that cover

It's wild how people's brains work right? You can't look at a famous face and recognise it, but you can guess this band in an instant... ____ _______ ___ ___ ______ ______

The forum game I truly suck at is the scrambled roulette entries that Metro was doing. I look at those and get absolutely nothing.

I played a lot of Scrabble (online and IRL) so I'm alright/good at that.

Speaking of games, one day I'd like to fire up a Telephone Pictionary game in General Discussion, not sure if there would be enough interest though. Basically each participant sends the host a sentence or two (could be themed, e.g. song lyrics), then the host randomizes them and sends them out for people to draw (by hand or MS Paint/Photoshop/anything), then the host randomizes the drawings and sends them out again for people to describe, repeat the cycle 4 or 5 times. All that happens through the PMs, then the initial sentences and the final sentences are posted and people try to match the sentences. In the end the full chains of phrases/pics are posted for everyone to enjoy. I played it on the A Song of Ice and Fire forum ~10 years ago and remember it to be hilarious.

Nice, I may actually do that sooner than later then. Just so people could see how it works, I found one of the old chains with working img links:

(first turn) Blackbear said: For his sins the man was transformed into a terrible beast, to roam the land for all time.

Dreamsongs: The man decided to ignore his Biblical upbringing and risk God's wrath to follow the friendly Minotaur into the woods because he had to pee urgently.

TC drew: http://i.imgur.com/iM0S80I.png

Nazca: On the way from church to a hiking trail a ginger, who needs to pee badly, is threatened by a Minotaur without fingers.

Florance drew: http://i.imgur.com/85u9c2w.jpg

Coral: The red headed boy must past the church with the golden bell and the moose on two legs without touching him to reach his objective

Lany drew: http://i.imgur.com/jAQnayn.jpg?2

(last turn) Evermind: There's no way the holy moose will stop me getting to the finish.

Sorry for derailing your game Kade.
