The basics of this game are simple: Take an album cover and, using Photoshop or similar software, edit out the band and album names. Then post here and people will see if they know what album it is. ^_^

Rules:

1. Only choose album covers which have some depth to them, so you don't end up turning something like this...

...into this...

2. Covering up the text with not-subtle chunks of colour is acceptable, but try and avoid it. Part of the guessing is you not knowing where the text originally was.

3. As a standard, go for 200x200. JPEGs are fine.

4. You don't have to correctly answer one to submit another album, but try not to have more than three going at a time.

5. You get one point for the band and one point for the album. A scoreboard will be kept.

Scoreboard

Canard - 10
Endgame - 3
FearHeldDear - 5
JCC - 2
Ocelot05 - 6
Providence - 4

Here's a fairly easy one for starters:



An even easier one, since no-one seems to be familiar with the above. :P

RATM - Evil Empire
Muse - Absolution

So now I do new ones, right? I'll put another 2 up then.

Probably easy:


Possibly difficult:

...

Canard wins the thread.



EDIT: No idea on yours. ^_^

i never saw or heard of any of these albums or bands before :huh:

ok, Canard, the top one is the Red Hot Chili Peppers - Californication
and ADJ, I believe the album you posted last is ... Led Zeppelin. I Think... Don't know what album.

Here's some albums ( I hope the first one has enough on the cover...)

Oasis - Don't Believe The Truth and The Doors - Strange Days. >_>

ADJ's is Led Zeppelin - Houses Of The Holy. And I did actually know that one.

Probably only Prov will guess this one, if he ever looks in here:

Exhumed - Anatomy is Destiny

My Photoshop is buggered, someone else take my go.

Gah, I'll have to link to it instead. >_>

Linkage

Get guessing.

Some of the pictures you guys have posted have the name of them on their properties… :P

Ocelot05's is Give Me A Wall by ¡Forward, Russia! (yay for Leeds). No idea on ADJ's (although I get the feeling I should know it). Do I get points for answering my own? >_>

Mine was Led Zeppelin's 'Houses of the Holy'. Fear got it. ;)

Coldplay - Parachutes.

@Canard - I know it's been kind of passed up and maybe forgotton, but the bottom one in your post is The Flaming Lip's "Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots". Do I get points anyways? ^_^


Hint: Stoner doom metal band and one of my favorites.

Yeah, you sure do. ^_^

Might post another later.

I just saw this, and had to post it. Sorry for butting in.



It should be noted that I did not put the black square in. In the square the name and album name were there.

Giveaway ava.

Metallica - St. Anger

Points added up to here.



US version looks like this, I believe:

The Strokes - Is This It


Classic metal cover. Fear should know this, but hopefully some others will as well.

Lol. I just noticed its my ava. O well, it wasn't that easy to read :P.

^No idea, Prov. Not so good with metal covers. :unsure:

Dang. I don't know any of these.

I knew the Flaming Lips one that Canard posted right when I saw it, though. Hm.



? :P

Sigur Rós - Takk

*resurrects topic*

That would be 100 Broken Windows by Idlewild

Knew you'd get that one eventually. You're leading on points, by the way. ^_^

First album cover I posted was Electric Wizard's "Dopethrone" and the second one was Celtic Frost's "To Mega Therion. I'll post an easier this time around since I know a lot of you don't listen to metal.


Hint: Pretty easy one; psychedelic stuff.

The Mars Volta - De-Loused in the Comatorium.

Havn't seen my cd of that in donks come to think of it. Must neb 'round.
