10. A tough one to end on here, but if you've got the album it'll be easy! This album has a very simple cover.

Guns N Roses

Pearl Jam

Metallica

Audioslave

Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. An easy one to start! Which Guns N Roses album features a front cover entirely covered in spaghetti?

Answer: The Spaghetti Incident

This was released in 1993 and was an album of cover versions.

2. This Nirvana album featured a newborn baby underwater, reaching out to grab hold off a dollar bill. Can you name it?

Answer: Nevermind

A classic album, in my opinion, from 1991, featuring amongst others the tracks "Smells Like Teen Spirit", "Lithium", and "In Bloom".

Answer: Get A Grip

This album was released back in 1992, and featured the hit singles "Livin' On The Edge", "Cryin'", and "Crazy".

4. Another Aerosmith album cover this time! This one featured two pick up trucks, one climbing on the back of the other. What was this album called?

Answer: Pump

Released in 1989, tracks on this album include the classic "Janie's Got A Gun", along with "Love In An Elevator".

Answer: Therapy?

Therapy? are a hard rocking Irish band, and this album contained the classic tracks "Nowhere" and "Die Laughing". A great band to see live by the way!

Answer: The Fat of The Land

Probably their best album to date (in my opinion), spawning the singles "Breathe" and "Firestarter".

Answer: Americana

Not the best album released by the band, but clearly the most commercial. The tracks "Why Don't You Get A Job" and "Pretty Fly (For A White Guy)" can be found on this album.

Answer: Nimrod

Another overly commercialised album, but a good one nonetheless, featuring "Hitchin' A Ride" and the timeless "Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life)" singles.

Answer: Bat Out Of Hell 2

I bet many of you may have said "Bat Out Of Hell" for this one, thinking of the original album. The reason you are wrong is because that album features the bike riding AWAY from the tower, not towards it!

Answer: Metallica

I know many people who have returned this album because they believed the cover to be faulty, i.e. not printed properly! Often referred to as the Black Album, this one features a number of classic rock tracks, by the best rock band of all time. These include "Enter Sandman", "Wherever I May Roam", "Nothing Else Matters" and many, many more.
