    Oh hey guys, it’s my first time doing a hint thread, hooray! Anyway, here are some hints for this week.

    • Even though this band including both a brother and sister had used a sample of a different song, it would still remain to be their only hit to date.
       
    • This artist has had one of their songs included in a recent PC game.
       
    • This act, who is no stranger to C3, had this song covered by an Alternative band who already has songs in Rock Band.
       
    • If you like forest animals and professional wrestling you might enjoy this band.
       
    • Earlier this year, this artist had joked around with another artist who is featured this week to join together and form a super group and sing about winter. Yeah, I don’t know why either.
       
    • This act who is usually in the poppier part of their genre takes a unexpected and heavy turn with this track.
       
    • All of the albums in this group’s discography revolve around a central plot.

     

    Happy guessing!

      Some intriguing clues there. The only one that jumps to mind is the last clue – doesn’t Coheed and Cambria tell some epic space opera story through all their stuff? Not a huge fan, but I would enjoy the Suffering.

        The first clue almost-but-not-quite sounds like the Cowboy Junkies’ cover of “Sweet Jane.”

          Wow…hints are either really hard, or really vague.

           

          I’m going to go with “Steal My Sunshine” for #1. #4 seems to be referencing iwrestledabearonce.

           

          I got nothing after that.

            Good call on Len – I think you’re right. Excellent, a fun duet!

              2nd to last act makes me think of Forest Rain who usually does pop/punk related music and he is famous for doing soft songs that fit in those areas… Yet he did one heavy-ish metal song for Halloween last year which was unexpected by many…

                Last is probably Coheed And Cambira and I hope to hell it’s The Suffering too, goddamn that’s a catchy song and I’ve wanted it in RB for aaages.

                [*] This artist has had one of their songs included in a recent PC game.

                 

                Define ‘recent’.

                 

                Is 17 september recent?

                  I definitely thought Steal My Sunshine when I saw that first one. Don’t recall any other brother-sister one hit wonders.

                    Iwrestledabearonce. Yes that is an actual band. I can’t imagine any other band that would fit this description
