Yep. I thought about changing "ease" to "pleasure" at the last minute but that would probably have made it too easy. You got the others right as well. Good job.

There's still a few left folks.Tongue

Djam Karet is of course correct. Not what I had in mind for Hole the World.  Think US band from the 70's. Transatlantic is a good one though and they are on the list I am drawing from. After Crying is indeed correct. You are pretty close with Zombi actually since Goblin is the band I had in mind. Apparently Zombi named themselves after a Goblin album.

I figured Goblin was too obvious. Zombi took the name from the film, which is better known as Dawn of the Dead, which Goblin supplied most of the soundtrack for.

It's hint time. A certain UK band who popped in the 80's named themselves after a fictitious breakfast cereal. This band is the answer to one of the clues. 

Another one is a German band from the 70's.

Shoestream and the South are Hatfield and the North. Their name actually stems from a road sign on the M1 motorway in Great Britain. We saw that road sign with our own eyes.

Both answers are correct. "Satana" is a word for the devil in several languages; with the added "n" it becomes "Santana". "Diavulu" is Corsican for "Devil"; with the added "n" it becomes "Dianvulu".

Line C are Brand X. When reading the alphabet backwards "X" is the third letter. So reading forward it becomes "C".
