Radiohead, Alice In Chains, Hole, Soundgarden, Smashing Pumpkins, Nine Inch Nails, Matchbox 20, … and I can’t figure out the other two.

Pearl Jam and The Screaming Trees?

[–] tox_solid 112 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Fucking Pearl Jam. I thought that was beans on a piece of toast.

Excessive lemmy usage detected

[–] tox_solid 11 points 1 year ago

It's got its hooks in me.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 1 year ago

Beans on a toast is my favorite band.

[–] instamat 4 points 1 year ago

I thought it was a jar of marbles and some weird thing next to it I hadn’t figured out yet

[–] Zdvarko 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Lol... Well at least thats a good description of Eddie's vocals, beans on toast... dry...

[–] Viking_Hippie 1 points 1 year ago

Sounds like you don't know how to baked beans or how to vocals 🙄

Never heard of Screaming Trees, so I never would've gotten that one.

[–] theragu40 10 points 1 year ago

Screaming trees was the first one I got, mostly just because I know the band and that made it a super obvious clue.

Good band, check them out!

Or at least listen to the Mark Lanegan era of QOTSA.

Screaming Trees is criminally underrated. They're one of the earliest grunge bands, and it's a crying shame that they were never able to reach the success that the more well-known Seattle bands did.

Screaming Trees are fun. I think they had some radio play with I Nearly Lost You

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

That was my only guess for those and I felt dead sure there was no way that could be right. They wouldn't make it that easy.

Same one I got caught on too, never heard of these fuckers... I was running all different tree types though my head.. yelling oak, loud pines, screaming willow

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

I guessed it based on the picture but I've never heard of them either

[–] half_built_pyramids 3 points 1 year ago

Or Treepeople, but that's an equally obscure Built to Spill predecessor.

[–] illah 1 points 1 year ago

That looked like a coffee mug with grapes on it to me haha but shoulda known a band that iconically 90s would be on here!

[–] Ginjutsu 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Could be a Hole, could also be a Puddle of Mudd

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Puddle of Mudd is like 2000's, too new. It's Hole. Early 90's grunge rock band, lead Courtney Love.

[–] Ginjutsu 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I think you're right. Puddle of Mudd did form in the early 90's, but didn't really hit mainstream success until the 2000s it seems.

[–] Aussiemandeus 1 points 1 year ago

I'm in a hole doesn't have the same tone as in a pit

[–] GargleBlaster 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Puddle of mud should be way more famous. I mean they recorded the best cover for nirvana's about a girl ever made

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I'll be honest I thought they were a Canadian band because nobody ever mentions them online but they got a ton of airplay 10 years ago where I live.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I think you’re correct, but how do you get Nine Inch Nails from a board with two nails in it?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If you count the dash marks on the nails, there is 9 on each.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I’ll buy that. Wish they had made it more concrete than that.
