Evermind waits until the next hangman.

Just noticed that, sorry man.

Well, you got three more correct and you were right about the Amorphis, I had accidentally one letter too many.

No worries man. Try the remaining two if you want, although those might be a tad harder.

As a hint, one of the artists has a punctuation mark in its name.

Have you just given away Parama's song? Because it's probably fun. - Be Calm.

Guessing the unguessed one is Ev's

Crow · « **Reply #76 on:** April 16, 2019, 11:42:44 AM »

Also thrice was on my shortlist but I actually didn't consider that song for some reason
Which is a shame since it probably is their best opener
That or Digital Sea

I'm not playing but I'm trying my best to solve that one before any more letters are revealed.

edit: Yeah, I already figured it was "of the spirits", but the rest evades me.

Yep, I don't know and I've got to write my own writeups now. The Frail Penguin - Twathorse of the Spirits

Also, had one extra letter there again. Man, I gotta be sharper with these in the future.

The Panic Channel - Teahouse of the Spirits

That letter was really crucial, yes.

Oh that one is Stadler

Can we have the who-sent-whats?

Granted a lot of these are Obvious Hole bands that basically anyone could've sent

Puppies is probably The Human Abstract though

SURPRISE!

I made some time for this tonight.

A good track, but I’m not sure if it’s that memorable in long term. I’m not sold yet on the vocals.

I’ve heard one album from this band and I didn’t like it, but that was a long time ago. Great riff here, but do heavier parts really mesh with rest of the song?

Didn’t expect to receive anything like this. I like the quirkiness of it.

My hatred towards the person behind this band makes it hard for me to be impartial. It’s decent, but the chorus is repeated one or two times too many.

This sounds like a band I might be interested in, but this particular song didn’t really do anything to me.

While I generally like this, it could use a vocalist with a bit more powerful voice. They get more into the spirit of things towards the end though.

Up-tempo and in-your-face, I quite like this.

This is dancing on the line of getting overly proggy for my tastes, but thankfully never crosses it.

The band is definitely talented, and I can appreciate that, but this just isn’t really my thing.

Had to dust off the ol’ air guitar for this one. Great blend of heavy and melodic. This band I could’ve banned and will definitely ban after this round.

Results coming within a week.

TAC sent Hole.

About a half hour after I sent it, I thought of a song I should've sent instead, but I was stuck on finding a 90's album.

I actually love Live Through This.

Yes, Courtney Love is a fucking whore face hot mess, but that album is fucking amazing.

The Walrus · « **Reply #95 on:** April 16, 2019, 03:34:37 PM »

I wasn't even a year old when Kurt Cobain died and I never had a grunge phase, what do you expect :V

TAC · « **Reply #97 on:** April 16, 2019, 03:38:32 PM »

I was 25 when he died. And I definitely never had a grunge phase.

Damn, I hoped I'd gotten someone thinking that was about Steven Wilson.

I promise not to let my opinion of her affect the score, but she's a cunt.

TAC · « **Reply #99 on:** April 16, 2019, 03:48:00 PM »

Oh without a doubt, but that album has some of the rawest energy I've ever heard. I've always loved it.

Stadler · « **Reply #100 on:** April 17, 2019, 07:04:37 AM »

Wasn't the rumor that Cobain wrote a lot of it? I can't imagine that's true if it's such a great album, but it's out there.

I think about four of them could be mine; I'm just trying not to get my hopes up on some of them!
