Yes, 16 is X. Chicago produced some amazing bands that have provided some essential listening... but i'm not going to name them yet. If you know anything about Punk Rock from the Windy City, then number 10 is easy peasy! Naked Raygun - Throb Throb I initially thought the band would be connected to Steve Albini, so Big Black, Rapeman, Shellac. And a wiki search got me to the answer.

Correct - Naked Raygun pre-date any of those bands ...and were better too, in my opinion.

Never even heard of Naked Raygun but that tune you posted is a winner ALS
Naked Raygun were indeed featured on that link I posted on the previous page...

...well, i'd like to think my annual Smart Ass Bastard Festive Punk quiz's can be educational as well as brain taxing! The two best bands to come from the early days of Chicago Punk were Naked Raygun and The Effigies. BOTH were active long enough to release some killer singles and albums.

...actually - one thing i need a little schooling on is how to make images (like the 16 covers image i made for this quiz) appear large on here. What do i need to do, after uploading them?

I just right click on your upload, copy the link, and then paste it after clicking the image box in the formatting above I hope that makes sense and is helpful
