5. The only thing I recall is those shadows coming my way. "Soma" -Project 86

6. If I had a nickel for every single time I've tried to classify the populace around me... "Milestone" -Five Iron Frenzy

7. I had a dream last night. I was a bird in flight. "Dream Of Two Cities" -Supertones

8. We come rushing through your stereo system, into your ear canal, like the alignment of the solar system. "Bounce" -Thousand Foot Krutch

23. So after all, you needed more than a death-threat fall.

24. This is how we multiply, pity that it's not my wife. "Rapture" -Pedro the Lion

Clue time!

2. This guy only came out with one self-titled album. I would classify it as electronic pop-rock.

12 and 13. Both by the same artist, but the songs that actually came up were covers from a tribute album to said artist. #12 makes me think of a boy band. This artist is considered to be one of the pioneers of Christian rock.

16. This band is not real. I like to listen to this song during the 11th month. It's driving me ape that you guys can't figure this one out!

23. The band makes me think of a Robin Williams' movie. It's also a band that Wildcat used to like.

28. The name of the song is in the lyrics. There's only 2 members in the band. The members both have the same last name, though their relationship with each other is unknown. I stijl can't believe nobody's got this one yet.

6. Most people don't know the real name of this song and just label it as "Nintendo". The band is no longer around, and the genre they played is considered "dead".

Sounds like FIve Iron Frenzy, but I can't name the song.

24. The band's name is based on if Napolean's buddy became Azlan.

That's definitely Pedro the Lino, so I can guarantee I don't know the song.

29. A popular "Christian" band that has already been guessed in this thread. Their name is pronounced the same as a certain month.

Joon! I love those guys!

6. If I had a nickel for every single time I've tried to classify the populace around me...

Honestly, even after being told that this is an FIF song about Nintendo, I still can't identify it. It must be from either Cheeses or Upbeats & Beatdowns.

14. Overzealous, to say the least.

FIF, "Kamikaze"? Just a guess. I know I've heard it, but it must be one that I'm less familiar with.

25. If you could ever find it in your heart, if you could ever think to find some sympathy.

FIF, "Never Ask Us to Play This". Which, incidentally, is one of about four songs that has the same tune as "I Still Like Larry".

It's from the latter, and it's not really a song about Nintendo, it just has the word "Nintendo" in the song (but not the song title).

FIF, "Kamikaze"? Just a guess. I know I've heard it, but it must be one that I'm less familiar with.
Nope. It's from their second album.

FIF, "Never Ask Us to Play This". Which, incidentally, is one of about four songs that has the same tune as "I Still Like Larry".
Yup. The third of those songs is "Four Kids In Memphis".

You're close tracklist-wise. Try reading the hint again.
