AC/DC provided the soundtrack and were featured in which Stephen King film?

Kujo?
Carrie?
Fire Starter?
It?
Green Mile?
Shawshank Redemption?
Misery?
The Shining?

 :lol: Good try but nope

Clue: It was the only film he directed...

oh ummm, it's based on one of the storys from The Night Shift. Trucks i think but the movie was different

Maximum Overdrive

Remember watching it in High School. Very hard to tell if it's taking itself serious or not lol

that's it!

apparently Stephen King went out to make a mockuhorror... but it's still a terrible, terrible film.

Who was a part of Heavy Metals "Big 4" in the 80's

Total guess here...

Metallica, Megadeth, Iron Maiden and um... dio?

first 2 are right

hint-all american, all from the bay area

slayer, definitely

i'd say kiss but they aren't west coast.

anthrax, probably

Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer and Anthrax it was



one of you can have it

name at least one member of all four of these ^^ bands .

Lars Ulrich, Dave Mustaine, Kerry King and Chuck D  :E

Joey Bellardini for anthrax

fight to the death over it

fight to the death?

I think they're over it.

okay then, dat bird can have it

Belinda Carlisle's first foray into music was as the drummer for a seminal american punk group from the early 80's. Who are they?

The Go-Go's I reckon it was.

Nope before that. And I'd hardly call the Go's Go's a seminal punk band.



















Although they were quite good.

Ah well that's only band I knew she was in before all the pop love song phase. How can you go from a punk background and onto that kinda stuff I don't know.

I'll have another stab with my limited knowledge of punk bands and say Dead Kennedys or The Misfits or something...

Nope. I have a clue lined up for when I feel it's necessary.

ah i do love a bit of Belinda. Extreely under rated muso

The Germs

Well done Sir.

Ask away.

What's the name of Slipknot's new album?

anyone?

Dunno why but I couldn't tell you the name of any of their songs or albums. Don't mind their stuff but never persued them beyond that

all hope is lost


saw it in zoo mag at smoko today :D

i had it as all hope is gone, but close enough

same same, but different



which recently chart topping UK band chose their band name from a David Bowie song?

the kooks

they were on jtv last week. strange lads.

yes and yes.

inspiring too though, imo.

yeah they're pretty good. :)

architecture in helsinki have 5 members now. how many did they used to have?

12. just a guess!

babow.

seven?

almost.

eight!

Six

you are correct maam. :)

come on alana!

Lets go alana lets go
Lets go alana lets go

 :tumbleweed:

 :lol: sorry guys!

ok - which group changed their name for the release of one track?

Freestylers changed their name to Raw As Fuck for a single... not sure if that was one track or two though

nah, its not them. it was specifically for one track  :)

It wasn't Shihad after all the 9/11 bollocks was it? Actually I think they changed it for a lot longer than one track.

The became Pacifier and lost a ton of credibility in the process

they were shit as pacifier.

i know that sam cooke changed his name to dale cooke for his first ever single (lovable) back in the late 50's because he was afraid he was going to be lynched by his church group for not going gospel anymore.

jeez alana, you're not overly quick on getting back to people. :lol:

i know i'm wrong, maybe as another? no one seems to know. :)

i actually reckon there could be 100's on answers for this question

Garry Hocking?

Changed his name to Whiskas!

such interesting info on other artists guys! didnt realise there could be a multitude of answers for this one  :)

here's a clue - the group dropped one word of their two-word name to protest the gulf war in 91 (i think that is the right year).

It does sound familiar but I still have no idea. Someone with "war" or "peace" or "love" or "guns" in their name?

warmer to hot Deathmaze!

think of a UK trip-hop group whom were big around that time  :biggrin:

does anyone else not care anymore or is that just me? lol

It is getting quite annoying!

Massive attack?  :)

attack is correct! youre up.

What are the first names of all members of New Kids on the Block?

Jordan, Jonathan, Danny, Joey and Donnie



*shakes head*

You've got the right stuff baby  :E

Which 2 of those are brothers?

jordan and jonathan

:lol:

lol nice

name three other bands which have brothers in them

the proclaimers, sepultura (used to), bros


 

:yup:

okay then, who replaced max cavalera when he left sepultura to start up soulfly?

that black dude.

and that's all i've got. :lol:

His first name is Derrick.

That's all I got.

that'll do.

it's derrick green.

Saw them play at Thebbie a few months after he joined the band. Dude was one big muthfucka.

Name two songs which appear on Mothers Milk that are covers.

crosstown traffic, higher ground and castles made of sand

lemon party, goatse, goddess bunny?

Higher Ground and Fire were the two I was looking for. But Castles made of sand was on the re-release so off you go.

name three of the musical acts that starred in the adventures of ford fairlane: rock and roll detective

oooh, good question. awesome movie! :slayer:

no idea though. it's been 10 years at least since i've seen the film.

i'll give some hints then to keep the ball rolling...

rapper
glam metal singer
female pop vocalist
funk band
las vegas legend

nup. still no idea mate. :confused:

I know Wayne Newton was definitely in it. He was the baddie. He fits your Vegas legend clue. No idea on anyone else though because it's been years since I've seen that flick... :confused:

Edit: I'm pretty sure Gene Simmons might have been in there too.

wayne newton is one... ill give it to you to keep things rolling

rapper = tone loc
glam metal singer = vince neil from motley crue
female pop vocalist = sheena e
funk band = morris day and the time
las vegas legend = wayne newton

Haha fair enough.

In the movie Old School what classic song does Will Ferrell sing at Blue's (the old guy) funeral?

I fucking hate will Ferrel seriously can not see how anyone can find his tired antics funny

agreed. he was good in two movies i reckon. he's been in 12342 though.

was it 'all by myself' by any chance? haven't seen the flick, but can imagine him doing that.

Normally don't go for his style of humour but I pissed myself all the way through Taladega Nights. SOOOOO fucking stoopid but almost the epitome of stupid!

OK. I don't want to be the one to stall this quiz so I'll tell you and modify it to a new question.

The song was the acoustic classic 'Dust In The Wind'.

Which band sang this song?

The man was involved in the greatest comedy sketch of all time so I'll continue to forgive the constant stream of terrible movies.

More cowbell ftw.

The answer is Kansas. Love that tune.

Which band was apparently bigger than Jesus?

Don't wait for me to confirm your correctness, take it away if you're sure...

B#'s




:E

not 100% sure, but think it was the Beatles

Yep!

and which band came out and said they would be bigger than the Beatles?

Oasis I think it was. Only Liam Gallagher could have the balls to say that!

Ummm, no actually. Well, maybe they did, but not who I'm thinking

Lightmare IMO

ummm, think massive one hit wonder


(and lol @ lightmare)

The Proclaimers?

Crazy Frog?

maybe the Knack, or was that just in the mind of the record company?

the knack it was, right after My Sharona went to number 1 around the world

liam gallagher definitely claimed it too.

right around the time  he said that he hopes that damon albarn dies from aids. :lol:

hahahaha

What was Jimi Hendix' birth name?

james hendrix?

seems to make the most sense.

I got no idea

How about Jimmy?

and i was hoping for BOTH names :lol:

whilst i still don't know, so happy the Warriors drafted a dude named Jim Hendrix. Can't wait to get that jersey

Johnny Allen Hendrix... his nickname was Buster.

Johnny MARSHALL Hendrix it is.

UH, exsqueeze me, but I have his biography right here and his middle name is ALLEN, named after his FATHER.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimi_Hendrix

I can't think of a question at the moment, someone else can take my go.

which band had the album 'pet sounds'

pet shop boys?

primus?

nope and nope. :)

Beach Boys

indeed it was. :)

Came in at number 2 in Rolling Stones Top 100 albums of all time


Still on that magazine, what album did they call The Heaviest Album of All Time?

absolutely no idea.

thinking if it's an old band it might be either something from black sabbath or deep purple, but yeah, that's as far as my thought process has taken me.

nope and nope;)

can't say i'm surprised.

album was released ummmm, in the 80's i believe

I instantly thought Meatloaf but not because of the music.

Is it by Metallica?

no but on the right track DM

Slayer? No idea on any album names.

yeah it was Slayer. Gonna need an album name though so *babow!*

Wide open for anyone else now lol. I've never got into em at all.

self titled?

Nope

They have had a few chick singers.

Maybe I'll change the question to, what happened to other Shamen member Will Sinnot?

Formed another band?

Isn't he Dead?

How though?

didn't he do a Jeff Buckley or something like that? Remember reading something about him taking an extra long walk off a short pier.

My older brother just posted a photo of it on Facebook the other day :thumbsup:

good stuff! it took Laz and i an hour to find him lol

Should have clarified that! I call first! :E

Name me the host of Triple Js Full Metal Racket

Andrew Haug.

Who does the hip hop show?

MC Hau from Koolism. What's the name of the group Maya Jupiter formed with Nick Toth and Trey?

:ot: Should be in the Hip Hop Quiz IMO.

BTW look up Maya Jupiter on wikipedia and you might find your answer is WRONG! :fist:

lol last time i checked, hip hop was music

(most of it anyway)

and yer, the oz "supergroup" lol- Foreign Heights

Yeah I know but I thought the point of a separate hip hop quiz thread was to separate the questions in here to all other music related things. Anyway I was taking the piss a little anyway.

It wasn't Keyser's turn to ask a question anyway (even though you got the answer to his question correct...)!

Have a big enough cry about it, Glock? Original post fixed. Quaz, you're up. I say we just ask questions about hip hop from now on in this thread.

BAN!

 :icecream:

Yeah thats right! No Hip Hop questions in the 'music quiz' thread! We all know hip hop isn't really music, its just people altering and rhyming over the great music other people have made. It's as far from music as ABBA!  :E

*leans back and waits for the 'hip hop quiz' invasion*

you're up steve. :)

ok ummmm who did the rave/crossover hit, Set You Free?

n-trance

bingo

*raves*

love that song!



how many full length albums have Interpol released?

hmmm, 3?

5?

quaz is correct!

pretty sure steve is right with 3.

cool group


I hate Pearl Jam


Why?

 :lol:

because you can't find a better man?

lol no

ummm... you got injured in a mosh pit @ their concert one time?  :dunno:

close enough

(can't understand wtf Eddie Veder is on about when he sings)


You can go Alana

yeah, he's a mumbler alright!


in what year did the last woodstock festival take place, (the one that ended in violence)?

1999? I think it was a 30th anniversary event or something from memory?

yup!

 :icecream:

Oooooo icecream! :biggrin:


Speaking of big rock shows, who had the biggest attendance ever attendance at a concert? It was a free gig which explained the numbers.

Fatboy Slim

Wasn't it Garth Brooks or some dreg like that?

Rolling Stones in Brazil

U2?

I think fatboy slim could be right though!

Crowded House

Very close to the answer I originally asked for the question for, which was Rod Stewart in Rio De Janeiro. However after I posted it I did some more research because I wasn't quite convinced of that because there was conflicting information of other gigs coming from all over the web.

Since then I have a fairly concrete answer and I don't think anyone will get it, I don't think I've personally heard any music from this guy (that I'm aware of anyway...).

He's French and the concert was in Moscow to celebrate that city's 850th anniversary. Audience was apparently 3.5m!!!

I hereby crown Glock king of the quiz questions that either don't have a definitive answer, have an answer that changes after the questions has been asked, or isn't really sure of the answer but decides to ask the question anyway, and then try and find out later.  :lol:

least it's not a hip hop question

If he's French it would have to be Jean Michel Jarre.

Spot on!

If you ever want to know who Daft Punk have blatantly copied with their live show (pyramid and all), hunt down some footage of JMJ in the 80's.

wow the similarities are uncanny!


:E

I watched a show of his which was held on the Champs Elysses and it was amazing to say the least.

Ok.

The Beastie Boys chose their name because it had the same initials as their favourite Punk Band. What was the name of this band?

The Bad Brains!
Beasties originally were a punk act too. Gee I'm glad they didn't follow too closely down that path!

Correct.

What is Maynard James kennans(tool, perfect circle) sons name?

clue: the flower pot men (and it ain't bill or ben)

please tell me his kids name Devo

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: @ your avatar quaz.

looking good rankines!

Rankines? I thought they were NKOTB  :E

lol spanky looks like he he just missed a part in Sonic the Hedgehog-The Musical, whilst drew looks like a Chernobyl Tortoise 

lmao!

chernobyl tortoise. :rofl:

Okay but only cause you asked so nicely. His kids name is Devo

lol thats awesome

cold chisel's song 'you've got nothing i want'

'you've got nothing i want, you've got nothing i need'

binaural
riot act

1969?

origins of symmetry. something like that! i forget!

I thought You'd get it:)

in what Muse song do they use a pipe organ?

Megalomania i think. Song hating on the church

I find Muse to be such a dull act. Enjoy very little of their work!

Thems fightin' words!

I guess I just find them more melodramatic than creative. Everything about them is just way over the top. Couple of okay songs.

I find your attitude dull. I enjoy very little of your posting!

:lol:

got a question to add to your little flame steve?

lol oh right yer


(for the record. I didn't mean it. But hell, i have a Muse Song tattooed on my chest so i'm not gonna just let it slide:P)

Question

Muse rule-Why?

hahaha. i'm really not sure how to answer that one. possibly the way matt bellamy's voice blends so well with their unique sound of rock, alternative, electronic and sometimes angelic music.

have to say i completely agree. really rate them. probably my second favourite current band after the strokes. :thumbsup:

there was millions of answers i could've accepted. This was one of them. You're up mate

yeah i could easily go on hey. :lol:

aii then.

don't know why this just came into my head as i don't even like them,  but who was the female singer from the seekers?

The goob with long brown hair and the shocking voice.

nah it's not you alana. lol. ;)

Wow. Touche  :lol:

haha. any idea though?

all i keep thinking is judith dench.  :lol:

i know its something like that though.... pretty annoying tbh

haha. you have the first name right. :)

Not sure how you spell it but Judith Durrum?

Fluke can have it if I'm right!

 Off topic - what Muse album should I listen to to get me into them. I don't mind Knights of Cydonia (sp)

Holy Shit! Now thats devotion. What song did you get? Super massive black hole? :)

Absolution is easily my fave album by far.

"sing for absolution" Main line from The title track of my all time fave album, Absolution

indeed. showbiz is really good too. :thumbsup:

actually, so is black holes and revelations.

*turns i-pod up*



oh, and judith durham was correct deathmaze. you're up. or someone else i guess if you don't want it.  :)

Someone else ask the next question, I have work to do!


But make it one that I can guess!

Hehe OK then.

Who was the metal star who died 4 years ago this week?

Nice. Such an awesome guitarist

Still on metal, what was Lamb of God's original name (released one album under the title)

Burn the priest or burn the nun? One of 'em

first one

:bump: for not-so-movin' Melvin

slightly delayed-  Who plays the devil in the Tenacious D flick 'pick of destiny' (Also plays a shit load of drums on the album)?

oh oh oh I can't remember but buzz will provide the answer within the next hour  :)

It's not Dave Grohl is it? Pretty sure I remember him being in there.

He's a drummer too. :E

Yolp. Mr multi-talented it is.

Coolness.

Who composed the awesome synth soundtrack to the classic 80's Schwarzenegger action flick The Running Man?

Dude from New Order?

Peter Hook? Nope.

Maybe Jean Michel Jarre?

Nope.

Clue: He is German.

okay, dude from Kraftwerk?

Nope.

Second clue: He achieved worldwide fame and a Grammy for the theme to Beverly Hills Cop, Axel F.

crazy frog

:E

:rofl: :clap:

not sure on spelling but Harold Faltameyer did Axel F


(was a Dangerzone hit:P)

And he composed The Running Man soundtrack as well. Good show old chap.

I love that movie & soundtrack, I found it online a while back too which I was really happy with.

PS. It's Faltermeyer. ;)

lol cool

name the band behind Triple H's entrance song, The Game

Motorhead

The Glam-Metal band London had two former members who went on to be part of two massive late 80's rock bands. Who were they and what were the bands?

 :bump:

Anyone??

Well i knew of one then looked up the other so but that would be cheating.

Who the fuck were London?

A Glam Metal band who were more famous for having members go on to form much more successful bands. Hence the question.

Anyone who had read two notorious auto-biographies or seen The Decline of Western Civilisation Part II would have a clue.

I know one of them was Jon Moss who went on to form Culture Club.

No idea who the second one is though.

That is actually London the Punk band from the UK. I am talking about the band from Los Angeles.

There are 2 Londons?

And my answer suited your question perfectly as well.

I know, it sounded sounded perfect. Made me learn a few things about Jon Moss though.

Tommy Lee or Nikki Sixx from Motley Crue?

This has been going on long enough.

Nikki Sixx was one of them and the other was Slash.

Ask away AK-47

Yeah, soon as you mentioned the autobiographies the penny dropped and I remembered one of the Motley Crue guys being in a band called London.

What is the biggest selling solo album by a former member of The Beatles?

Imagine - John Lennon

Surprisingly it isn't!

Paul McCartney - Band on the Run?

No. That was Wings anyway, not solo.

This will surprise some people I'm sure. It was also the first ever triple album from a solo artist when released in 1970.

Is it McCartney?

I googled. Very surprising.

No. It was the 'quiet' Beatle. You'll know who if you've heard that nickname before.

The album included the absolutely beautiful song 'My Sweet Lord'. :lighter:

Good question there.

That makes it George Harrison - All Things Must Pass then.

Have that here on vinyl somewhere but never would have picked it as a bigger seller than Imagine or McCartneys albums.

Awesome question btw.

Thank you and you're correct. It is All Things Must Pass. I have only recently discovered it myself, which was quite ignorant of me and it really is an exceptional album.

Not sure if this will be too hard a question but I figure as I know it perhaps somebody else will.

Which folk singer/songwriter from Gawler is famous for writing songs for the likes of Billy Bragg, The Pogues (inc. And the Band Played Waltzing Matilda), The Fureys, The Dropkick Murphys & John Williamson amongst many others?

 And the Band Played Waltzing Matilda is such a haunting song. Didn't know the answer, googled it though.

I always wondered why an Irish band had a song called Bound For South Australia. Now I know why.

Anyone?

First name is Eric.

Bogle?

That's the one.

A legend in Ireland although practically unknown in his home state.

cool, i saw bits of him at the Gov a few years ago



Name the artists who performed and recorded the Foo Fighters' debut self titled album.

I'm not sure if this is as easy as I think it is.

Dave Grohl played all instruments on this and I believe recorded it also.

yeah that's the answer i was looking for pretty much.

some bloke named greg dulli appeared on one track, otherwise grohl wrote, did vocals, lead, bass and drums on the whole album.  respect.

Name two bands current Metallica Bass player Rob Trujillo was a member of.

suicidal tendencies and ozzy osbourne.

Well done. Your prize for a correct answer is you get to buy me a ticket to see Metallica at the O2.

:lol:

I know the answer but I'm already struggling to think of a question for the sports quiz so the last thing I need is to come up with another question for in here.

Metallica - Black Album & The Beatles - White Album

Ooops your right..... Jay Z - Black Album
