The Album Cover Game

Ok, Kim, I played.

It’s the Random Album Cover Game! A great exercise in creativity. This requires three random things. But wait, here’s what you’re supposed to do (I promise I didn’t cheat on mine):

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random The first article on this page is your band name. (If it’s a real band or musician, you might want to cheat and hit refresh.)
http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3 Scroll down - the last four words of the last article are the title of your album.
http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days/ Whatever the third picture is - that’s the album cover.


And the results for me were:

Now debuting is the band Dorzbach with songs from their album To Solve Other Problems!




I really like my album cover! The name of the band is so-so, but the album title's not too bad. Maybe some of the tracks could be named, like "Ignore Them, They'll Go Away," or "Don't Worry, Be Happy - The Remix," "I Told You So (A Mother's Anthem)" - any other suggestions?

I like that you came up with actual songs for your album. How about: "Once you've solved them, a whole new batch appears", or "The Square Root Song"? The whole song could be a series of math problems to solve. That sounds like a hit!

I love your band name. Sounds like a young hip group of guys who don't know anything aboout bach, but that it might sound interesting mixed with a psuedo german word. "Hey, baby, I'm the drummer for Dorzbach. Wanna buy me a drink?"

I thought to myself, "that might be fun" So I gave it a try. The first wikipedia article was a dirty word, so I tried again and the second one was an actual album name. I think I'm doing this wrong.
