Which one is number 3? - sounds pretty cool, like Mogwai but heavier......

Which one is number 3? - sounds pretty cool, like Mogwai but heavier......

i don't know what it is... to be honest, i only recognize the cure and rammstein songs, there's a blink182 song too towards the end but i don't know the name of the song. there're a few other things faintly familiar too but i just can't put a name on them.

the situation is that i'd need to recognize as many as possible as fast as possible, it's this competition i'm in....
but i'm afraid i'm going to lose since i must be a musical retard...  so all help would be appreciated, please help me to cheat....

damn brian you could make a living out of this - or maybe you already do, i don't know....

and did you win the price? hey too bad there was nothing else to win but the deepest admiration and respect of a bunch of co-competitors... but you damn well won because i think the dude who came in second got three songs down and when i presented your list everyone went like "WTF????" - you got totally immortalized hehehe 

(hmm please stick around, your services might come in handy sometime again )

ps. the rammstein song is 'mein herz brennt' - at least i knew something you didn't, oh i'm so proud!

[japanesebaby]

damn i think this one's even more difficult:
