Cheers! Yeah had a few earlier bands originally, Ringworm and Integrity are favorites of mine, but changed them out as they got very few guesses.

Hey nice quiz - Just think some bands are like borderline metalcore (Jinjer - Knocked Loose - Hatebreed). I know its hard to differentiate the bands in this genre. Keep it going!
