The audio nerds on FB have this one going around, I usually don't do this kind of stuff, but it was entertaining. Do as follows:

1 - Go to Wikipedia.com and hit Random Article (on the left). The first random article you get is the name of your band.

2 - Go to Quotationspage.com and hit Random Quotes (left). The last four or five words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your album.

3 - Go to flickr.com and click on "explore the last seven days..." at the bottom of the page. Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

4 - Use Photoshop or similar to put it all together.

5 - Post it.

Cheers,
Russ

    Noah, your contirbution was fine, you just didn't '12x12' it to look like an album cover. Good work. I love the oranges and the band name is totally believable!

    I sense a lot of post-rock in this thread. My only hope is that none of it's TOO COMPRESSED. Or worse yet.... released after 1973. Otherwise, I knew all these bands when they were so much better and only playing in front of three penguins and a hobo with rickets.
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore

    ^You did the quote wrong! :tongue:

    Four or five words. And if i may say so myself, it'll be MUCH better with the album title being "You can not remain still."
