As I only know a paltry one answer, I’ll not bother the scorer on this one.
Like the images, though.

Which half HMO? Of which cover? ;-)

HMO didn’t know the title of one album but I helped him out – he identified it enough for me.
Still no winner…

It was number 3. I knew the band but not the album title. Looks like Mike’s given me the full point anyhow!
Now if only get number 4 but it means nothing to me. It’s like “what could be more grey?” and the answer is “none…”

I will offer one clue:
Album #4 us not obscure. It was nominated for two Grammys.

Here’s the latest tally!
Heavy Metal Overload – 4/5
Craig – 4/5
1537 – 4/5
The one that seems to be giving people trouble is #4.
I figure I’ll let this run 48 hours, maybe til the weekend, and if I don’t get five answers by then I’ll reveal them.

I’m waiting on Jon to chip in. They don’t call him “Mastermind” for nothing!

Lol! He won’t have any advantage on #4 though. It is not a Swedish rock band…but I’m not going to give clues yet.
I expect Every Record will know #4.

Just posted my response, and I’m confident I’ve got 4 out of 5. One of them completely stumped me, but that’s fine (as long as it doesn’t end up being something really obvious).

Rich nailed 4/5!
The one that has people stumped is not an obscure band. …

Congratulations (and well-done) to Lemon Kurri Klopek. Very impressive. I’m only a casual NIN fan so not all their album covers are etched into my brain.
