No links. I'm too lazy.
1. Go to the Wikipedia main page and click 'random article'. This will be your band's name.
2. Click 'random article' again. This will be your album name.
3. Click 'random article' fifteen more times, for the tracks on the album.
- Band Name: Fa Pao
Don't ask me. But it does sound like something I'd pick.
- Album Name: Matrilocal Residence
It's a socially acceptable way of saying "brood" or "hive". Both of which are edgy, rock names. Check me out, subverting the geeks.
- A Very Special Love
This will probably be akin to Zebrahead's Playmate of the Year or CSOL's Code Blue. Grab the hair-dye, my pop-punk roots are showing.
- Aslan's Country
Think Blink-182's A New Hope, but more 'what happened next'. We'll deal with the rise of communism, the industrial revolution, and a cyberpunk information facism in the world of Narnia.
- Yokohama Arena
A song about pokémon battles, with pokémon we make up ourselves. The chorus will be entered with no music and a different band member screaming "I will be the pokémon maaaaasterrrrrrrrrr!" and a recurring irritating jingle of "Gotta-catchem-all!" will pervade.
- 1491 in Ireland
A good old fashioned punk drinking song. Allusions that nothing else is worth doing.
- Sammy Winward
Love song to a sailor girl.
- Sicherheitspolizei
Tongue-twister, a few German puns, no real purpose other than showing off.
- Retractable Screen
This will be 2nd place for pretentious wankers after goblinpaladin's Chatzenrtick Pass. Mainly because some pretentious wankers will get the nagging suspicion that our chief metaphor ('retractable screen') is taking the piss.
- BBC Southern Counties Radio
A 'shout-out' to the 'homies' who helped us get started on the road to success. And we'll imply that the DJs have relations with sheep. Just because.
- Gouldsboro, Pennsylvania
The song-journal of our only US gig, who we met, what was said, and it will reveal the wherebouts of the body of our original drummer (a secret kept to this very day).
- X Re-Released
A cover of Liberty X's Being Nobody with some minor lyrics changes to allude to the band themselves.
- Bluey (Australian Cattle Dog)
A more savage Skippy.
- 1964 24 Hours of Le Mans
How we won the 'longest song in Europe' title, and why we're never credited with that fact.
- Bascapè
Italian food and scat music on here.
- Breakfast Epiphanies
A study of one-night-stands. Features lots of building tempos and sudden crashes.
- James J. Dillon
Thrash metal. There won't be any real words, any lyrics people come up with will be coincidental and wrong. It will skyrocket us to internet mystery sensations, since we'll just ignore/avoid any questions about it, people will wonder if it was a different band altogether, and if forced to answer questions we'll claim that we need our lawyers before we're allowed to give information away in a reluctant manner. "Oh, we'd tell you if we could, but we have to check which words our lawyers will let us use."

Instructions according to ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) active_apathy, copied from goblinpaladin:
1. Set $media_app to random.
2. For each question, press 'next' to divine the answer.
3. Write down that song, regardless of silliness. Silliness is kind of the point.
3a. No really. If goblinpaladin wrote down Tori Amos: Girl in response to "describe yourself," you have to write down your answers honestly.
Answers! Which make us ask more questions:
- 1. Q: Are you male or female?
A: Dr Hook: "Only Sixteen"
So whether I'm male or female, she was too young to fall in love and I was too young to know. Hold on there, goblinpaladin, we may be peas in a pod yet.
- 2. Q: Describe yourself.
A: Rocky Horror Show: "Damn It, Janet"
I'm.... no joker? I'd do anything for a boring lassie? I'm prone to wussy obscenities?
- 3. Q: How do you feel about yourself?
A: New Found Glory: "Anniversary"
'Finally I'm getting on with my life' - 'I'm not the type of person to get over it' That's not too bad, actually. Not sure what I'm getting over actually, could be breakfast, might not be as important as that... Oh well.
- 4. Q: Describe your ex.
A: Presidents of the United States of America: "Lump"
Whoops. Ummmm... I don't really want to touch this one.
- 5. Q: Describe your current partner.
A: Dropkick Murphys: "Bar Room Hero"
Well, it's more flattering than the last one was. At least, it has the word 'hero' in it. And she does enjoy a good drink. I think iTunes is mysoginistic.
- 6. Q: Describe your current location.
A: Space: "Avenging Angels"
Song or artist? I think I'm closer to 'space' than I am to 'vengeance'.
- 7. Q: Describe what you want to be.
A: Blink-182: "Sometimes"
I don't want to run away, I always have something to say. Sometimes I'm something, sometimes I'm not. I think this is a deliberate cop-out song. Lazy iTunes!
- 8. Q: Describe your best friend.
A: Mnemic: "Jack Vegas"
This is a meta-answer. I've not listened to this CD yet, I ripped it from Jen. Who is my best friend. Also, it sounds very heavy metally, which is.... Jen. I can't work out what the words are, but then, it's probably close enough already!
- 9. Q: Your favourite colour is...
A: Green Day: "Knowledge"
Green is a calming colour.
- 10. Q: You know that...
A: A.F.I.: "A Story At Three"
I like this one. Could be about paranoia. Paranoia? Yeah, good enough.
- 11. Q: What is the weather like?
A: Saviour Machine: "Lament"
Miserable.
- 12. Q: If your life was a television show, what would it be called?
A: Oasis: "Stand By Me"
While I'm flattered, I don't think it's one that I would watch from the sounds of it.
- 13. Q: What is life to you?
A: McCoy: "Dreaming of the Dead"
Another of Jen's things. Sounds like an experimental track. Bah humbug.
- 14. Q: What is the best advice you have to give?
A: Placebo: "Every You, Every Me"
Don't fall in love, I think. iTunes is a bitter lover.
- 15. Q: Describe your love life.
A: Blink-182: "New Hope"
It's a punk song about.................. STAR WARS!
SO FITTING! On oh-so-many levels. Geek love is good love.
- 16. Q: How are you going to die?
A: Placebo: "English Summer Rain"
We've just had the wettest summer on record. And there were floods in Gloucestershire, just north of us (we're in South Gloucestershire council area, don'tchaknow). I'm doomed to die young and beautiful.
Also: What a wussy way to die. I'm curious as to how it may happen.
- 17. Q: If you could change your name, what would you change it to?
A: Unknown Punk band: "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun"
No.
- 18. Q: What do your friends think of you?
A: Millencolin: "Fox"
I hope this is the Fantastic Mr Fox I read about when I was young.
- 19. Q: What is your funeral song going to be?
A: Linkin Park: "Points of Authority"
'You just won't last.' iTunes is willing me to an early grave in next year's floods. I think I should have been nicer about it recently.
- 20. Q: What are you going to repost this as?
A: Against All Authority: "Nothing To Lose"
Enough said.
