2. Your album's title is the last few words of the last random quotation from QuotationsPage.
3. Your album's cover is the third image on Flickr's Explore the Last Seven Days.
4. Photoshop and mix to your taste.

As fun as it is, it really bugs me that the meme as spreading completely ignores copyright -- there's a _lot_ of really creative work being done that gives no credit to the photographers whose images are being appropriated.
When I did mine a year ago on the first incarnation, I tweaked the rules a bit to search through Creative Commons licensed photos. Unfortunately, my 'net presence isn't big enough to have influenced more than two or three people.

Whee
Dobre Delo's second album, "Paradise Is Paradise Lost", is a massive step sideways from the synthetic aggression of the band's first album, which should delight new listeners and dismay the loyalists. On the title track, Eduard K. and his quartet produce a richer, more orchestral representation of his repentalist style than can be found anywhere else in the genre. Some might yearn for the less refined tones of Eduard's earlier works; "Paradise" is a sign that they will not soon be returning.

Aw, c'mere, you. Let me lay a little goopy alt folk-pop on ya.
No? How about some atmospheric experimental something-or-other from German expats in Japan?
Austin post-college post-punk?
This obviously epic EP?
Geez, you're hard to please. Here's a lady in fishnets.
