Oh, and album name was “Trees with your Face” - I think it’s an album of songs on love and loss.

@ FlipYrWig: was the relevant quote something along the lines of “try anything once in life, except…”?

On the very first try: Adalia - Something You Rise Above. Not especially hip... but I like it anyways. Looks like it would be a Sade tribute, maybe.

Great album title on my last round, and I had to share: “Incest and Folk Dancing.”

Ha ha ha ha. Mine was so appropriate for my tastes:

Band name: Basellandschaftliche Zeitung
Album Title: While Thinking of Art
Cover Art: a leafless tree in a desolate plain.

All I need now is some corpsepaint and spiked bracelets.

This is beyond great. In fact, I was recently cajoled into teaching a class in “Introduction to Multimedia” and one of our topics is beginning Photoshop. I’m going to use this as an assigment! I took the idea of making it square (300 x 300) and added another step. The first image is the background, but then I’m going to have them reload the page and take another image and cut something out of it to overlay on the first image. (For instance in my creation, the Starbuck’s cup is from the second image.) Then use fonts, filters, and layer effects to give all the elements some snap.

The end result will be, I think, an exercise in which they’ll use a large selection of basic Photoshop tools to create a neat-o bit of art. Thanks for the article!

Band: “The Vagrant”
Album Title: “It Is the Deal”
Cover Art: Red-and-white striped tablecloth with a translucent blue plate on it, thus mimicking the US flag.

Wholly believable.

I’d photoshop it if I weren’t about to head out, and if I weren’t the sort of person who would turn the whole thing from a novelty to a total immersion.
