Stolen from [livejournal.com profile] hardboiledbaby.

1. Go to wikipedia.org. Select 'Random Article'. Whatever comes up is the name of your band.

2. Go to quotationspage.com. Select 'Random Quote'. Choose any quote you like on the page, the last few words of the quote are your album title.

3. Go to flickr.com. Select 'Explore'. Select 'Interesting photos from the last 7 days'. The third image is your album cover.

4. Photoshop! (or use any photo editing site)

Well, HBB's worked together well, but mine works together a little too well and ends up as weird. Maybe even creepy.

That's fucking creepy, man. That little girl's been bullied, so now she's gonna learn them all, oh yes, there will be blood. Blood and instructions.

I know, isn't it? I swear, I have the weirdest internet luck. I was using bit.ly to shorten a link the other day, which I then tweeted to my business twitter account.

The link? was something like this:

bit.ly/aSCaM

I AM NOT KIDDING. Yeah. I have weird luck.

Band: List of Channels on Virgin TV
Album: Life Devoted To Pleasure ("I can think of nothing less pleasurable than a life devoted to pleasure." -- John D. Rockefeller)
Cover: a room with drawings (http://www.flickr.com/photos/apenciladay/5339139015/)

Really, it's too bad about the band name! Otherwise I would totally rock that -- especially the subversion involved in leaving the first part of the quotation out of the title! You can bet it would surface in the songs themselves.) :D

Heh, alternatively, maybe I should call the album "nothing less pleasurable than" -- to sum up my general opinion of television?

Dude, you got the rockingest album name ever! holy cow! And even the cover could totally go with it.

But...yeah, the band name is a little crazy. Hmm. Maybe just Virgin TV? Yeah, that would be subversive, totally, and awesome. <3

"Virgin TV" is probably copyrighted. What about "A List Of Channels"?

I did one earlier and then had trouble posting. My album cover was a blurry female and my band name was a female name (Yugoslavian Basketball Player, I believe), but then my Album name was this awkward quote from Henry Ford about Prosperity.

You know something? I really like it! I would think it's creepy if it said the angel (because doesn't she look like an angel? cherub with a dirty face?) hits back but no, it's the eeeevil devil. Good job, you.

Yeah, that's what [livejournal.com profile] subrosax said, she thought I should just post it. And the interpretation of the little girl as being the devil does seem to work. It's just...a little scary! hee!

Is it weird that I really like yours? It walks that creepy/silly (and therefore kind of bad ass) line very well!

I got a close-up pic of a plate of home-made cookies...

Band Name: Anastasius I (after the emperor)
Album Title: "Excess of Comfort"

(from Dickens: "Minds, like bodies, will often fall into a pimpled, ill-conditioned state from mere excess of comfort." :-D )

All rather tidy, no? I'm imagining tracks devoted to orgies, feasts, gladiatorial games and other empire-style extravagance. Whee!

*hugs back and offers oodles and oodles of cookies* I meant to say a proper hello before just dropping in on your meme, but I couldn't help myself in the face of such randomness... :-)
