Chilliwack and DOA were active before 1980. New Pornographers' first album was released in 2000.

Is #15 about the song or the band?

Just looked back...it's song, which is unfortunate...

Voivod don't have the word "rock" in their wiki genre.

They do have: Progressive metal, thrash metal, speed metal, alternative metal

Nickelback has at least 1 #1 Adult top 40 song, though, so please get rid of them from the list.

The trews have no singles or albums released in the 90s, even though they formed in 1997

I don't think that matters. That would only disqualify that particular song, no?

If it's an adult top 40 song it disqualifies the whole band.

Will be nearly impossible to guess a song that was not a top 40 hit or identified with any movie or TV show.
