Fun idea! I have so many song title ideas floating around - one day I still hope to be able to write music. Or else maybe I’ll just copy Mingering Mike.
Band name: Mesvres
Album title: “It Used to Be.”
The cover.
Mesvres (a region in France) is a pretty decent modern band name, it sounds kind of math rock-y, and I think the cover image and that name go well together. “It Used to Be” is an exceptionally lame album title, however.
Band: NATO Medium Extended Air Defense System Management Agency (or NAMEADSMA)
Album: Two wrongs don’t make a right, but they make a good excuse
Cover: Yellow Spider. (Gasteracantha geminata) | Gasteracantha gemi… | Flickr
Yes, at least Firefox and Opera have got a way to “nuke” every image named ‘blank.gif’ forever and ever. What’s your browser?
Believe me, I know about computers. After all I mixed every single track from my progressive rock indie band “The last Sin Eater” first album, ‘Fatal to True Happiness’.
You may not have heard of us yet, because we are too underground. But we have lots of fans in Korea and Turkey.
Band Name: Earth Defense Force
Name of Album: Just Need Some Exercise
The Cover
Thank you for reviving this thread.
Band: Per Fossum
Album: Another word for Thesaurus?

I love this thread.
This isn’t entirely random, like not first time random (I’ve been my own little world of fake bands), but this one just came up for me and I had to share. Sounds like an early 80’s California punk band.
Band: Scouting in Pakistan
Album: Don’t Think God Exists

Band name: The Headless Ghost
Debut Album: You Want To Go

So yeah, this seems like it’d be pretty dark. I’m fine with that.
Band name: Belu
Debut Album: To Grapple With Them
Cover: All sizes | Hitler worked hard to have Nazi party members elected to office until they became the largest party at the legislature; you can Trust the star YOU vote for to not transmogrify after ELECTION, right?_Explore_1166a | Flickr - Photo Sharing!
Band: The Restoration of Chaos & Order
Album: An Evangelist For Your Work
Album cover: Dark | Dean | Flickr
These all seem like great band names, album title and cover photo to me. My thrash band will rule with a green iron fist!
The quote was: “Remove every barrier you can to fandom. A fan will be an evangelist for your work.” -Dave Kellettthat quote sounds semi-deep until you realize that he wrote it in How to Blog for Money by Learning from Comics, SXSW 2006 
Band name: Lepper
Debut Album: Applying the Wrong Remedy

This worked surprisingly well.
I think the flickr page should be random too though, or else everyone will have the same album cover.
Band name: Hirschfeldia incana
Album: He shall be - avenged!
Album cover: "Happy Halloween!" *Niko* | Seattle Roll | Flickr (doesn’t exactly go with the album title, does it?)
Band name: Albert_Mines,_New_Brunswick
Album title: the way to success

I started to do a second one, but the band name was “Diving at the 2004 Summer Olympics - Men’s synchronized 10 metre platform”, and figured it was a lost cause

They answer our prayers (for some reason this reminds me of GYBE’s Raise your skinny fists like antennas to heaven)

Really no connection between name, title and cover - perhaps that’s a point in itself. I do like the ones that seem “real” or plausible at least, like Hocky Monkeys for instance.
Yeah, it would be kind of hard to get that on a marquee.
