From last.fm:

There is more than one artist named Quicksand: 1) Quicksand was an American post-hardcore band from New York City founded in 1990 by Gorilla Biscuits guitarist Walter Schreifels. The band released two widely-acclaimed albums, Slip and Manic Compression, before disbanding in 1995. In 1997, Quicksand reunited, and embarked on a successful tour in 1998 with Deftones. Towards the end of the year they entered the studio to begin work on a follow-up to Manic Compression, but tensions within the band caused them to split up for good.

From last.fm:

Two bands share the name Single Mothers, one being a hardcore band from London, Ontario and the other being a stoner metal band from LA 1. Often described as frantic, frenzied and outrageous Single Mothers exists upon the fundamental that live music should be an interactive experience. A typical Single Mothers show usually consists of sing alongs, crowd surfing, flying guitars and mosh pits. The sound itself is almost as fraught as the history of the band.
