01 Antony
02 Le Tigre
03 Village Peepz!
04 Velvet Underground (weird picture yo)
05 Sonic Youth w/ Jim O'Rourke
06 Awww, I just noticed the band name is in the linked photo, yo
07 Same!
09 Echo and the Bunnymen?

I now see that all your large linked pictures actually have the band name in the url.  So no one look at the url if you click on those pics!  Er, yeah!



All correct except for 9, here's a hint. There were two brothers (who were the only consistent members) and the band broke up in a fistfight on stage (sadly not oasis).

And , yeah don't look at the URL

Correct except for 10. He's the only member from the original lineup and is obsessed with space, his previous band included a number in their name.

that makes sense that he would always play these songs, so thats probably what the baby is, because it doesnt fit in with any of the other albums i can think of off hand.
&, the puppet master is not the voodoo one,
its his newest, and its basically about a guy who kills people and turns them into puppets for his puppet show.

its from- 7-13-01, so its pretty old.

Started as a grindcore band. They were one of the bands that re-defined Death Metal.
Pretty much invented (along with At The Gates) the Sweedish Death Metal movement.

Cant believe no one got it yet.

Yep, its Carcass.
And no. 6 is Dark Tranquility
Well done:)

So far we've got:

2. Portishead
6. Dark Tranquility
9. Skyclad
12. Carcass
13. Cocteau Twins

Kai, In Flames is just one of the bands that followd Carcass and At The Gates with the new Sweedish Death Metal.
Re-defining is not their strong side.
