Our Debut Album

OK. For the last few months our desktop monitor has been on the near fritz. We're not sure if it was the monitor itself, the cable, or whatnot, but in order to get the monitor showing a steady screen rather than horizontal lines running vertically and/or static we'd to be rather gentle, stroking the monitor here, nudging it slightly there, holding it steady with one hand...

Bloody troublesome.

And since we blog in the wee hours of the night, and we'd watermark out pictures before posting them up (Photoshop is only installed on our desktop, see), we slowed down blogging. Ain't good because there'd be stuff we'll not blog down and forget in the future. After all this is where we store our memories, haha.

Anyways there was this meme going on out there and it seems something to fill here up while we get a new monitor fixed up soon.

First up, let's cut-paste the rules.

HOW TO MAKE YOUR OWN ALBUM!

1 - Open http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random.
The first random wikipedia article you get is the name of your band (alternatively, if the first article you hit is short, hit Random Article two more times).

2 - Open http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3.
The last four or five words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album.

3 - Open http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days.
Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

4 - Use photoshop/paint or similar to put it all together.

5 - For tracklisting, repeat (2) by refreshing 10 times.

So here we go, after some editing with Picasa!

By the looks of it we belong in the Alternative genre. Still, while it's an interesting way to make album art and all, we're not gonna use this for our own personalized album art, haha. We think we'd be camwhoring for ours, when we get to it, heh.
