Your next projects debut album

Sign in to disble this ad
Hey found this on another forum and thought it would be a fun game to get going here as well. The rules are simple and some the results can be pretty funny.

So heres what to do

1 - Go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random
The first random Wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.

2 - Go to Random quotations: http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3
The last four words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album.

If you want to do this again, you'll hit refresh to generate new quotes, because clicking the quotes link again will just give you the same quotes over and over again.

3 - Go to flickr's "explore the last seven days" http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days/
Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

Put it all together, that's your debut album.

Simple

Even though this has hit TB once I didn't bother the first time, so I gave it a shot this time around.

Band: Oathlaw
Album: Coward Like Everybody Else
Cover:

That actually was a pretty decent set. Doesn't sound like anything I would be a part of, but not bad.

Kind of picturing an ECM-ish avant-jazz vibe here.
