Full Version: Band names
Big Clock
This is a pretty funny game to point out how obscure and meaningless band names and album covers tend to be these days.

Create your own fake album cover!

Step 1: The first article title on the Wikipedia Random Articles page is the name of your band.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random

Step 2: The last four words of the very last quotation on the Random Quotations page is the title of your album.

Step 3. The third picture in Flickr's Interesting Photos From The Last 7 Days will be your album cover.

Step 4. Use your graphics program of choice to throw them together, and post the result.

I have no doubt that any of these could pass to be official album covers.

That's entertaining. I'll probably do more when I don't have homework.

Screw you all and your random internet references. emo-grumpy.gif

None of these are references to anything, they're just randomly generated by Wikipedia, quotationspage.com, and Flickr. emo-looove.gif

@OP: My Wikipedia article was "United Kingdom (Album)". Have I unlocked the bonus round?
Big Clock
Imagine if you randomly got that album's band name and cover from the other sites too. emo-shifty.gif
