Favorite band guessing game?

Question

I'll start.....

They are from Helsingborg

They have toured with bands such as Throwdown

They were in the background in an In Flames video, as were In Flames in one their videos

The name of the band is a play on words meaning "working from the ground up"

Can you guess mine? I'll try to guess yours....

:)

Answer 1

They recently got a new lead singer,

Today they only have 3 orignal band memeber

A new song comes out once the website unlocks it

The white stripes

you got it!! it was kinda easy though, prolly the unlocking thing gave it away huh?

Answer 2

My group first rocked the scene as virtual unknowns, on a muddy field, in August of 1969, before their debut record had even been released.  They walked off champions.  Their lead singer/amazing guitarist was born in Autlan, Mexico in 1947. Their music has been described as being a mixture of rock,reggae,african, cuban and much more. They continue to thrill, even today.  One of their song titles speaks of  a gypsy queen.

The person above me didn't want to play. LOL

Answer 3

They're the fab four from Liverpool...

Have sold arguably the most albums in recorded history

Pretty much *everyone* has heard of them...

They played at a place called the Carvern for 2 years before their carrers skyrocketed as musicians

I'm obsessed with them

Sound familiar?

Pretty obvious...

Answer 8

Not sure about yours, though I'm sure someone else has guessed it already, I'll do mine.

4 members, 3 of them still living

Formed in 1968

First song played together was "Train Kept A'Rollin"

Delved into all genres of music, from reggae to funk to blues-rock

One of the most influential bands of all time.

Did a number of one-off reunions in the years following their breakup.

I think I made it pretty easy.

EDIT: Metal + Rock lover, yours is Metallica, isn't it?

Brad, your's is The Who. The funniest stories in the world are of Keith's erratic behavior. I once found a whol ewebsite of them, wish I could find it again. And yep, you got it, it's Led Zeppelin. I'm pretty sure the biggest giveaway (at least for fans of the band) was the first song they played together was that what made you get it?

Answer 9

Start Wearing Purple...it's gotta be Rage!! I love them too =]

But my favorite band...

All 5 members are from Omaha, Nebraska.

They played their first gig ever in 1990 but started the band in 1988.

They've been on tour with Incubus.. (long time ago).

The band got their band name from a police code on a citation that a former member recieved for skinny dipping. After recieving the citation he was escorted home handcuffed and naked.

I'm sure anybody that knows of this band can guess it....

Yep, 311! =]
