	Amy Winehouse - RIP

	You might say these names were put in a... new order.

	Super surprising that Coldplay is the least guessed answer. I didn't get it either.

	Man, I was really hoping Carter the Unstoppable Sex Machine was going to make the list. Some of these bands, such as Coldplay, I didn't even know was a British band.

	@fantasysieger10 It's because of the nature of that particular anagram. It's a long single word which means you can't infer what it might be from other shorter accompanying words. Also the letters are very spaced out throughout the anagram. For example, LODCYAPL or LPAYCDOL would be easier to solve, as they groups the constituent words 'cold' and 'play' together when rearranging letters.

	Well done. Great selection of bands.

	mathesond:	Aug 30th, 2011 at 11:25 GMT	2 points
	Needs more Iron Maiden. :)

	All these British bands and no Zeppelin?!?! For shame.

	Good quiz, although Fleetwood Mac could be considered a UK+US band rather than truly British.

	Nick Drake!

	Didn't get Mumford and Sons. It was not your fault but mine. On a technical note, HET EXS IOLSTPS should just be EXS IOLSTPS. Like Eagles, Carpenters and Bee Gees, they did not use an article.

	Hold on- You included the SPICE GIRLS over LED ZEPPELIN? Am I the only one that finds that wrong?

	rockgolf:	Aug 30th, 2011 at 14:24 GMT	2 points
	It's based on quality of anagram, not music. That's why BLUR is in but PULP isn't. How you gonna mix PULP? ULPP? PLUP? PUPL?

	Was a great quiz but was really hoping to see Gomez on here. With only 5 letters, even people who haven't experienced their great music could still have a chance at getting it.

	Griffinite:	Aug 30th, 2011 at 18:44 GMT	2 points
	Surprised not to see Queen on there.

	Cubby:	Aug 30th, 2011 at 21:20 GMT	3 points
	Well, you know, not every British band could go on the quiz. I'm sure there is a possibility of a follow-up. Or, you could make a follow-up to make sure your favorite British bands are on it...

	Really good quiz with a spread of musicians from different eras. Only one issue: Van Morrison is not from UK, he's Irish.

	WyvernSabres:	Aug 30th, 2011 at 21:47 GMT	2 points
	@senga: Belfast IS in the UK, so Van the Man is fine here.

	MrBlueSky:	Aug 30th, 2011 at 23:37 GMT	1 point
	@listyguy: yes :)

	shellchock:	Aug 30th, 2011 at 23:47 GMT	2 points
	How in the world did I get Mumford and sons, but not the Rolling Stones?????

	livas:	Aug 31st, 2011 at 18:55 GMT	2 points
	the funny thing is that the only ones i missed (coldplay and radiohead) are the only ones on the list that i listen to!

	aussiec:	Sep 22nd, 2011 at 15:54 GMT	4 points
	pretty sure this is testament to the fact that the uk is home to the greatest music in the world :)

	JeffMA0710:	Apr 5th, 2012 at 01:10 GMT	0 points
	No Led Zeppelin, Iron Maiden, Queen or Judas Priest but Super Furry Animals? Garbage.

	eurythmech:	Apr 11th, 2012 at 16:40 GMT	1 point
	Yeah, all the criticism is justified. Cause you know, the quiz is totally called "The top 24 UK artists scrambled".
