18 The Band - Music from Big Pink

DavidMedsker · 2 months ago

Damn. Should have stayed with the original cover, and just used a different part of it. There was no real disguising of this one.

All guesses so far are correct, and congrats to the ATM Kid for picking off this week's puzzle cover.

1. The Hives - Veni Vedi Vicious

ATM Kid · 2 months ago

Could it be another rule of thumb stated "Every puzzle cover must be MONOCHROME"? That may leads to open guess and thematic lead. It was funny in the past weeks guessing that one, IMO.

DavidMedsker · 2 months ago

In my mind, Infected had some monochrome spot on it. I've already used Dusk and Mind Bomb, and Soul Mining was guessed so quickly when this accidentally went live last month that I just thought, "Well, I'll change it to Infected." Should have used Hanky Panky instead.

5. The Firm : Mean Business

DavidMedsker · 2 months ago

The Thrills and the Firm are correct. No guesses for #11? Check the Popdose 100 and see if anyone catches your eye...

retroaddict · 2 months ago

#11 is Amazon Beach by everyone's favorite(or at least they should be) Canadian party band The Kings.

retroaddict · 2 months ago

And obviously the theme is: Some of "The" bands who have "The" in their band names.

drxl · 2 months ago

Also, the rest of the name (after the "the" article) is monosyllabic

Ding ding ding! And that's a wrap. See you next week for another round of Name That Tune.
