If I had actually known the lyrics your clues would have been really good!
Okay. I'll do the next one.
LEADEN ERASER / LAVA IPA
1. A name / General description
2. Technically a redundancy / Not really a redundancy (bad and incorrect clue)
3. One of the scrambled words is a synonym for the word it replaced.
4. I saw five of these today and my friend and I made use of three of them.
5. sprogspasser, because of his location, may be at a disadvantage for this one. Alexisherself? ... I don't really know her life style. These may only be common where I live and I haven't told anyone here where that is. Still I think this are pretty common throughout the U.S. but it may be a left coast thing.
More hints later.

6. Remember my scamble that was SOURDOUGH BREAD? Well, this isn't sourdough bread. It has something that sourdough bread doesn't have.
7. from the Neddiad by Daniel Pinkwater. "The Marsh Brothers ... were sort of substitute, imitation Marx Brothers-- they did the same sort of things as the Marx Brothers only not as well. Their names were Gaucho, Harpy, Chicklet, and Gumball... They were funny, but not all that funny."
So if I were to make up fake names for a fake Marx Brother quartet I'd use the names Fresno, Frisco, Chico and SanJo. Oh, wait. One of those is legit. Well, that's the only part of this clue that is.
8. Snowy Mountains, hop to it.
9. Two of the words rhyme. They othere two aren't in English.

I know it has something to do with San Francisco or the San Francisco Bay Region.
However, I've never been to San Francisco, so all I can think of are the landmarks: Golden Gate, Alcatraz, Transamerica Pyramid, Berkeley and the museum. The snowy mountains could be the Coast Mountains that lay to the north and I have no idea what lays just east of there other than the San Fernando Valley.

JUAN ATKINS / CYBOTRON / CLEAR / BELLEVILLE FOUR
The song came out in 1982, making it the first techno tune to be called so. Juan Atkins, the man behind Cybotron, lived in Belleville, Michigan on the Detroit Industrial Expressway (I-94). He and his friends, Kevin Saunderson, Jeff Mills and Derrick May to create the so-called Belleville Four to spearhead techno and made techno a peculiarity of Detroit for the next six years until it broke out in 1988 in such places as the UK, Belgium and Germany.
Belle+ville? Get it? No? All right, I'm out of here.
