LOL That image is quite old, there was a contest where the winner won the poster with an extra band of his choice (in the square where it says: tu grupo aquí). Of course I didn't won, but I know where are the answers  .Hints: 1- Its important that you know some spanish (a few words its okay, especialy the days of the week). 2- The icons are very literal. 3- The autor is mexican, he's a designer and an illustrator. 4- He loves cynicism. I put the red words if you want to cheat. Go to Google. -------------

...so the last on row 5 is never going to be the Honeycombs then 
 ...and I guess the last on row 8 isn't going to be Band Aid.

I presume the icon right to the AC/DC is Kraftwerk, but then again, it could be Air too...but Air could be those chemical elements N,O in a second row too. Coldplay in the one-before-last row is very clever...but the waveform on the left is perplexing me...and the reddish texture in the upper corner? ------------- |

Could that Hindu symbol be Samadhi? (Saw the album review on the homepage this morning and remembered the symbol). ../album.asp?id=2710">  Probably not, as I don't think obscure RPI bands would be on this puzzle, but maybe it will offer a clue to someone smarter than me. ------------- https://epignosis.bandcamp.com/album/a-month-of-sundays" rel="nofollow - https://epignosis.bandcamp.com/album/a-month-of-sundays |

Or Queen, as it looks a little like a chess piece symbol for the queen. Oh I see Queen is already there.
