    Pentangle.

    Virtuoso British folk-rock band with a unique mixture of jazz and folk with blues elements and the twin guitars of the late Bert Jansch and John Renbourn.

    Possessed: One of the fathers of Death Metal. Also, the first band of current Primus guitarist, Larry Lalonde.

    There are two The Passions, one American doo wop band and a British punk band. Perhaps they can be distinguished within italicized parentheses.
