	Is there a problem with the Sex Pistols? It comes up for Coital Firearms (which is correct) and Faulty Spirituality (which I think should be Bad Religion).

	Looks like it's fixed now. Definitely going to have to listen to some Triple Canine Evening after work...

	Yeah it wouldn't accept Bad Religion so I skipped it and then when I entered Sex Pistols it filled Sex Pistols in both places... weird... But I didn't mind because I like Sex Pistols 100X more than Bad Religion... :)

	Any quiz that includes my favorite band, the Smashing Pumpkins, is a good quiz by me. 5 globes!

	Didn't think I could ever appreciate any quiz that had New Kids on the Block side by side with Bad Religion...but it happened.

	Istanbul was Constantinople. Glad to see They Might be Giants on here.

	I want to start a Rage Against the Machine tribute band called Anger Opposing the Contraption. lol very cool quiz.

	cupcakes:	Sep 28th, 2011 at 17:46 GMT	18 points
	might be a stretch but could blind faith fit for faulty spirituality?

	Nice Simpsons reference...we're not poison we're cyanide, a loving tribute to poison.

	pgrossma:	Sep 28th, 2011 at 17:56 GMT	11 points
	Good quiz, brings back my favorite Simpsons Quote. Billy: 'Nice to meet you, Billy Corgan, Smashing Pumpkins' Homer: 'Homer Simpson, smiling politely' - good mix of eras and genres - One suggestion: '3 Dog Night' should be accepted for 'Three Dog Night'

	fresh children on the square and humble rodent cracked me up!

	Very funny, if a bit simple.

	RufusTFirefly:	Sep 28th, 2011 at 18:59 GMT	9 points
	except that, according to the band, the "smashing" in Smashing Pumpkins is supposed to be synonymous with "excellent or wonderful" as in British: That's smashing, baby!
