Matchbox 20, white zombie, Eels, Lemonheads (I think the lemons have faces, hard to tell), Hole

Do solo artists count? If so then Seal, Goldie (?) and I think the coin may be 50 cent, but I'm sure someone from the US could put me straight

Men At Work - pumpkin smasher, postman

Pulp - after the pumpkins have been smashed, or maybe the 3 girls in front of that rolling stone

Lovin' Spoonful? (or Grinspoon?)

Styx - near '20' on ground

Li'l Bow Wow, Bow Wow (or Pavlov's Dog?) - whippet like dog near pet shop

RATT - middle of street

Face To Face - foreground

Hootie And The Blowfish? - tenuous, but goldfish

The Byrds - black birds on sign under eagles

Manic Street Preachers - guys in white

and if those flying things are angels they might be Lynyrd Skynyrd (er, with sex change)
