Hey, this made me laugh so much when I was doing it in my free period at school.

Simply go to Wikipedia. On the left there is a RANDOM ARTICLE button which takes you to a totally random article (funnily enough).

Do this several times and write down the titles of each article. The first article you found i your band name, the second article is the name of the album and the rest are the tracks on the album.

So basically you are making an made up album using random articles. Post them here and then we can try and guess what sort of genre of music the album would be.

RULES:
You can give yourself your own little rules like you can skip Names if you get too many or Places if you get too many of those.
Don't make too many tracks.
You can rearrange your tracks but the album title and band name must stay.
Use Wikipedia, don't make stuff up. We can tell if you made something up because then there won't be a wikipedia article about it.

Here is my first one:

James Ulysses Bond with Railway Bridge
1) Pentax Optio
2) Taekwang Group
3) Mike Hammer: Murder Takes All
4) Tribal (Psychic TV Single)
5) Symphony of Ages
6) Crab Louse
7) Oil's Well That Ends Well
