Are there…rules…or directions…for this game, or is this just some bizarre cryptic mind-fuck?

Mostly it’s a bizarre cryptic mind-fuck. :cool:

But each fictional band name I’ve made up is supposed to be a ficticious cover band name for a real band. For example, Breaking Spokes might be a cover band for Rage Against the Machine.

Answer the puzzles I’ve given, or make up some of your own.

Indigo Shellfish Religion is Blue Oyster Cult

One from me…very easy.

Gathering Moss

Ah! Just figured out Broken Gourds! Smashing Pumpkins

Cripes…last one I’m guessing for now…I promise.

Arrowsmith.

The *Stones * of course!

Nice.

I’ll add:

Avian Totalers

Some more…not going to try to classify them by difficulty…

Electric/Bisexual
Barbarella
Monkeyz
Bareheaded Guys
Copperfront (I didn’t make that one up, but it amused me.)

Gorillaz. That one was too easy.

Big Grimreaper.

Might Barbarella be a Queen cover band?

Big Grimreaper is Megadeath.

Might be. Isn’t.

It’s a bit of a double reference to the band that it IS, though.

The 3/4’ Fasteners = Nine Inch Nails

Duran Duran?

:smack: Copperfront is Nickelback.

Anthropomorphic Torture Device (easy)
Gropius (average)
Cougher (easy)
Edison/Westinghouse (way easy)

Yeah, impressive. But I’ve posted the same puzzle years ago on a previously shared message board. Half a point.

Try this one: Unknown Canadian Band

Dammit, I got those backwards, didn’t I?

Egads, I suck at my own game.

Iron Maiden?

Oh! Men without Hats!

Yep.

Howzabout: Walrus and Laura?
