[dexi]

White Zombie - left side
Black Flag - right side
The Pixies - 4 of 'em on the left side
White Snake - coiled around the traffic light on the left side

Some possible ones:

Blur - the guy in the pink shirt next to Alice who's out of focus
The Cars - um, in the background (almost too obvious)
Television - the store window display
Spoon - leaning up against the wall on the right (Spoon wasn't really popular enough to make this mural though)

 

[aznboi9]

Gorrillaz: everywhere
Garbage: on the street
The Black Crowes: on the main st sign
Green Day: on the calender on the right
Red Hot Chili Peppers: on the vegetable stand

That's all I got. I don't know if the pink scissors are supposed to represent the Scissors Sisters or not. Same thing with the Cowboy Junkies on the right and Iron Maiden behind the Resevoir Dogs.

 

[S.G. Gibson]

Deep Purple - building at rear
U2 - Graffitti on right building
Ratt - on the street right
Hole - in front of three girls
The Police - by the cars
Radio Head - in crosswalk
The Vines - is that what is growing out of the sewer grate?
Korn - with the rest of the vegetables
Queen - holding the pistols
Kiss - the lesbians by the ligh post
Cornershop - the shop on the corner

I don't know if this is bands only but there is a
Prince
Seal - poster
Madonna - painting of Mary and baby

And those acrobats as well, they look like their forming a sign or letter. I like yoniluvrca's call of the little lizzard being dinosaur jr.

res dogs

I didn't mean that to be a band suggestion ; I was just using it as a descriptor. It looked like they're covered with blood. And don't forget Gorillaz

Lemons are the "Lemonheads"

Pink scissors? Who is this?

 

[yoniluvrca]

Not sure but isn't there a band called:
Manic Stree Preachers (Bunch of white guys top left)

Is there a band called:
Roadkill (Just behind the cart with G&R) If there isn't, there should be.

It's a stretch:
Phish (goldfish bowl)

The Alarm (band from the 80's, alarm bell to the right of the store sign)
