Question

This is the last word of a Japanese band who included the tracks “Absolute Ego Dance” and “Rydeen” on their album Solid State Survivor. A band whose name starts with the adjectival form of this word tells an object “you should have stayed at home yesterday” and is behind the 1980 hit “Enola Gay”. A band whose name ends with this word ends each line of the chorus of a song with the nonsense word “groos”, usually heard as (15[1])(*) “Bruce”. An English new wave band is titled (-5[1])after (0[1])the adjective form of this word and the words “Manouevres in the Dark”. (10[1])A band whose name ends with this word opened one song with “sun is shinin' in the sky / there ain't a cloud in sight”. For 10 points, Jeff Lynne leads (10[1])an “Electric Light” one of what musical ensemble? ■END■
