I just thought of this...

Make up a band name. It can be obscure as you like. Then Google them for and see if a band or artist really existed/exists.

Like so:

plate glass windows - no

forever young - yes
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alphaville_(band)
http://www.foreveryoungband.net/

concrete notions - no

que on que - no

the reprieve - yes
http://www.myspace.com/thereprieve

russian sea power - no

refrigerator mothers - yes!! !
http://www.myspace.com/refrigeratormothers

the misfortunes - yes
http://www.myspace.com/themisfortunes

woeful lovers - no

:D
