I realise in my attempts to make it less obvious, it may be a little too cryptic. So, loads of clues; one word (which is a play on its phonetics), they're known as a British experimental rock group, their first album was eponymous, the file name of the first picture could be thought of in its slang term, and where would you usually find the animals pictured as a collective. I see that the pronunciation of the band name is up for debate, but my sources at dictionary.com assure me it's accepted.

Ok, the correct answer is Jesu. (jee-zoo ) "G" as in slang term for gangsta.

After checking their videos on youtube, it seems they're not as well known as I thought. Couple of songs for your perusal:

King Harvest? I dunno, clues?

Kings of Convenience?...

Kings of Leon lead singer Caleb Followill singing suggestively about a display of crisps/chips/snacks/candy/products, possibly interpreted as a shop or convenience store, Lonely Hearts Club Band?...*
*This guess was brought to you by a collection of Corona and lime that ain't gonna drink itself.

Eh, after googling some terms to attempt some sort of answer (and seeing that King Harvest was already said) this is the best I can come up with.

Rock Shop are some covers band from US who mostly play weddings and stuff, covering *ahem rock bands such as The Killers and Pink :rolleyes:

Alternative rock band from LA - two words.

First picture is of a chrome hubcap.

Second is really centred around the man's son.

Third should be seen as the action/movement of each child in focus, rather than the event itself.
