Time Waster: Albums That Don’t Exist
This recently-discovered time waster is just good, clean fun — and exactly the kind of group art project tailor-made for the internets. Sleeveface was our major obsession last week, but this week’s prize goes to Albums That Don’t Exist.
Here’s how you make one:
First, go to Wikipedia’s random article page. The article you get is is the name of your band.
Next, go to the random quotations page on Wikipedia. The last four words of the last quote on the page is your album title.
Finally, go to Flickr’s interesting photo page. The third picture, no matter what it is, is your album cover.
Put them all together, and voila!, your cover. Here’s ours:
Here are a few others:
Or browse the archives to see the rest, some of which are surprisingly awesome.

Ha! I love this game. My band, Villanella, picked this photo for our album, “Love truth, and pardon error.”
