Radiohead, Alice In Chains, Hole, Soundgarden, Smashing Pumpkins, Nine Inch Nails, Matchbox 20, … and I can’t figure out the other two.

Pearl Jam and The Screaming Trees?

[–] tox_solid@lemmy.world 103 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Fucking Pearl Jam. I thought that was beans on a piece of toast.

Excessive lemmy usage detected

[–] tox_solid@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

It's got its hooks in me.

[–] massive_bereavement@kbin.social 20 points 1 year ago

Beans on a toast is my favorite band.

[–] Zdvarko@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Lol... Well at least thats a good description of Eddie's vocals, beans on toast... dry...

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Sounds like you don't know how to baked beans or how to vocals 🙄

[–] instamat@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I thought it was a jar of marbles and some weird thing next to it I hadn’t figured out yet

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 31 points 1 year ago (6 children)

Never heard of Screaming Trees, so I never would've gotten that one.

[–] zeroscan@lemmy.sdf.org 9 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Screaming Trees is criminally underrated. They're one of the earliest grunge bands, and it's a crying shame that they were never able to reach the success that the more well-known Seattle bands did.

[–] theragu40@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

Screaming trees was the first one I got, mostly just because I know the band and that made it a super obvious clue.

Good band, check them out!

Or at least listen to the Mark Lanegan era of QOTSA.

[–] Selmafudd@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Same one I got caught on too, never heard of these fuckers... I was running all different tree types though my head.. yelling oak, loud pines, screaming willow

[–] Nepenthe@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

That was my only guess for those and I felt dead sure there was no way that could be right. They wouldn't make it that easy.

[–] ReddsWay@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Screaming Trees are fun. I think they had some radio play with I Nearly Lost You

[–] fidodo@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago

I guessed it based on the picture but I've never heard of them either

Or Treepeople, but that's an equally obscure Built to Spill predecessor.

[–] illah@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

That looked like a coffee mug with grapes on it to me haha but shoulda known a band that iconically 90s would be on here!

[–] Ginjutsu@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Could be a Hole, could also be a Puddle of Mudd

[–] VioletRing@kbin.social 8 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Puddle of Mudd is like 2000's, too new. It's Hole. Early 90's grunge rock band, lead Courtney Love.

[–] Aussiemandeus@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I'm in a hole doesn't have the same tone as in a pit

[–] GargleBlaster@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Puddle of mud should be way more famous. I mean they recorded the best cover for nirvana's about a girl ever made

[–] vinceman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 year ago

I'll be honest I thought they were a Canadian band because nobody ever mentions them online but they got a ton of airplay 10 years ago where I live.

[–] Ginjutsu@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I think you're right. Puddle of Mudd did form in the early 90's, but didn't really hit mainstream success until the 2000s it seems.

[–] emmeram@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I think you’re correct, but how do you get Nine Inch Nails from a board with two nails in it?

[–] VioletRing@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If you count the dash marks on the nails, there is 9 on each.

[–] emmeram@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

I’ll buy that. Wish they had made it more concrete than that.
