Hey everyone! It's been too long since the last contest, so here's one for all of you.

Just like me, the music I listen to is all over the place, so expect a contest as such. The tracks will be easy for some, harder for others. Here goes!

- Song One
- Song Two
- Song Three
- Song Four
- Song Five

You can respond here if you like with answers, just for show and/or to help others out. Whoever has the most correct answers is the winner! There's only five, so it's not a huge one. Good luck everyone! I'll post the answers this coming Monday!

Good One Dark Shade !

I only know no1. That's Blue Oyster Cult - Don't fear the reaper.

Gonna puzzle on no. 3. I know that one.

Dark Shade · « **Reply #2 on:** August 03, 2006, 07:27:04 AM »

You are correct, sir.

That was an easier one, of course. The rest may cause some difficulty for some of you.

I have a fever... and the only prescription IS MORE COWBELL!

Song 4 sounds like it came from a video game!

Thats because it did..sort of. Invasion of the Gabber Robots I think was the title. It's from the infamous All Your Base flash. http://allyourbase.planettribes.gamespy.com/video1_view.shtml

The second one sounds a bit like "Hell's Bells" (AC/DC) in the first bit, but in the second part it doesn't sound like it at all.

You have the correct title, but who was the artist/band who created it?

Chris · « **Reply #8 on:** August 04, 2006, 11:43:15 PM »

The Laziest Men on Mars - Invasion of the Gabber Robots

Dark Shade · « **Reply #9 on:** August 05, 2006, 03:00:12 AM »

Another correct answer, this time by Chris. That's two down, anybody going to step up and tackle the others?

Scheherazade · « **Reply #10 on:** August 05, 2006, 07:31:18 AM »

Is number two also "Don't Fear the Reaper?" Like a metal version?

Dark Shade · « **Reply #11 on:** August 05, 2006, 11:55:53 AM »

Not to drop any hints, major or minor, but no. It's not a Metal version of 'Don't Fear The Reaper', although it's obviously a Metal song.

I'll keep the contest running this week until I see a few more attempts to solve 'em. I had hoped for some activity this weekend, but that's alright. Just give it a try whenever you have the time.

jeee · « **Reply #13 on:** August 08, 2006, 02:17:36 AM »

From the sound of the guitars I'd say that no. 2 is The Cult. I flipped through a few songs but it's not in my collection.

Dark Shade · « **Reply #14 on:** August 08, 2006, 03:18:52 AM »

Nope. It's not 'The Cult', sorry to say.

Dark Shade · « **Reply #15 on:** August 13, 2006, 09:34:03 PM »

Well I'm a little dissapointed at the number of members interested in this thing, but that's alright. I may throw another up sometime in the next little while, so keep checking back.

This contest's answers are as follows:

Song One: Blue Oyster Cult - Don't Fear The Reaper

Song Two: Borknagar - Colossus

Song Three: Tenacious D - Double Team

Song Four: The Laziest Men On Mars - Invasion Of The Gabber Robots

Song Five: Muse - Map Of The Problematique

Hope you enjoyed it!

I should have known the Tenacious D song. Excuse me while I kick myself in the face.

You're excused, Miss Lorax.
