	Nice to see this quiz get published. I never get tired of seeing the likes of Kraftwerk and Joy Division on a quiz. Looking forward to many sequels.

	Not recognizing Depeche Mode is totally understandable, but never having heard of them? I'd say this game's biggest asset is its obscurity--everyone is going to recognize The Beatles or Hendrix but not everybody is going to immediately recognize Velvet Underground or The Killers, even if they know their music.

	Good quiz but, It's Tricky!

	Dude, Shaggy's had at least three huge hits, and Depeche Mode had a bunch, one fairly recently. I'd agree with the percentages regarding "obscurity". I only know of one Orbital song (the theme from The Saint).

	i must not be very cultured, only 9/25.

	I didn't even recognize Bon Jovi. I kept thinking it was Jefferson Starship, or Starship. Doesn't the second one from the right look like Grace Slick?

	I love that the Velvet Underground is sandwiched between Run DMC and LL Cool J.

	@juviejay it was the 80s all the dudes had hair like that. Good idea for a quiz, but really hard. Some of the pictures aren't very clear, I like the Killers but that picture is pretty small

	Yes, great idea for a quiz. But you can't even make out anybody's face in the photo of VU. And WTF with the silhouette photo of Orbital, a band no one's ever heard of, but it doesn't matter because the photo is just two shadows anyway.

	Love the variety. Missing some just means you learned something. Isn't that what Sporcle is about? Being a teenager in Manchester when Joy Division formed made them one of the easiest to spot for me. Doesn't mean I'm smarter than anyone else.

	Good idea but the pictures might've been clearer.

	I got Orbital but missed Bon Jovi... yeah, it's gonna be that sort of day.

	great idea! i know and love most of these but found it tough cos i had to screw my face right up to the screen to see. jon bon jovi almost too small to make out! and for anyone who doesn't know orbital... now is the chance to check out an amazing group!

	godzilla:	Dec 17th, 2009 at 08:06 GMT		21 points
	i agree; some of the pics were far too small

	The pics are fine except for The Killers and Bon Jovi. Who the heck is Orbital? Nice quiz though

	the pictures were hard to make out
