yes it's a meme, what can you do?

And the song titles are:

Fox Hunting (disambiguation)
Call of Duty
Bara Tumba
Nares Land
French Personal Pronouns
Goldfish Warning!
First Saturday Devotions
History of Portsmouth F.C.
Fire Fighting Foam
OG Ron C
Orthopantomogram
Brazilian National In-Line Hockey Team
Stop and Examine Rule
Tubing (recreation)

So, I'm thinking they're one of those ironic, loose-knit Montreal or Toronto-based collectives whose songs sometimes go on a bit too long.

The rules of the game are:
1 - Go to Wikipedia's "random article" link, through here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/. The first random article you get is the name of your band.

2 - Go to Random Quotations. The last four words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album. (Or the last three, in my case.)

3 - Go to flickr's explore the last seven days. Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover. (I messed around with mine because its dimensions were all wrong and also I felt like it.)

4 - Go back to the Wikipedia Random Article feature. The first fifteen articles you get are the song titles of your CD.

Hee!

LOL! That is approximately 1000x more awesome than I might have imagined, based on the rules of the meme.

I know! it is a fabulous meme, really, and I only cheated a little.

I'll buy it from the 99 cent bin

That's a good cover! I could see that, on vynil, in the random used bin back when there were still little independent record stores in college towns.

At first, I thought "I want some candy" was the album title.

Yeah, definitely with the songs that go on a little too long. From the titles I'm actually thinking neo-prog-rock with hardly any vocals. Some overlap with loose Montreal-or-Toronto-based collectives, I suppose. But from the look, probably not much later than the mid-nineties, and low-fi production values.

Yeah, the kind of collective that Fred Frith would sit in with when he was in town ... so maybe more Amsterdam or New York, in that era.

I'd love to hear Goldfish Warning!

I'm in! I've tried this before but never came up with good material. As it is, I'm strangely heavy on the geographical in my song titles, but at least it's a theme.

I really love your artwork, especially the hand coloring on the sky.
