19. Chevelle - In 2004, Chevelle contributed a song for the movie soundtrack The Punisher titled "Still Running."      






20. Chimaira - Chimaira is derived from the monster in Ancient Greek mythology, the 'Chimaera'.

Other proposed names at the time included "Sphere", "Rupture" and "Blood for Nine".

29. Deftones -They have released six albums to date, with three Platinum (Adrenaline, White Pony, Around the Fur) and one Gold certification (Deftones). Their most recent studio album, Diamond Eyes, was released in spring of 2010. 
30. Demon Hunter -Don Clark listed some bands that have influenced Demon Hunter's sound: "The melody comes from Britpop. Everything from the popular Coldplay, Radiohead, and Travis to more obscure bands such as Elbow, South, and Soundtrack of Our Lives. Obviously the Heavy side of the stuff comes from bands such as Metallica, Pantera, Sepultura, Prong, Machine Head, and Living Sacrifice."
