Post by: Zydar on November 30, 2010, 08:38:01 AM
Easy. In this collage there are 20 different album covers. The genres include metal, prog, pop, and hard rock.

Can you name all 20 covers?

The Sky Moves Sideways, Terria and The Division Bell are the first ones I recognise among them.

Poss Thick as a Brick?

Er, Foxtrot too, and is that Blackwater Park? That or Morningrise. There's an Iron Maiden one in the bottom right but I'm not familiar enough with their catalogue to say which.

Oh! And Audioslave. With Train of Thought next to it?

The orange one towards the bottom left is a Metallica one - I think it's Load or Reload, but I'm not much of a Metallica fan so I can't say which.

EDIT: And I have no idea how I missed Scarsick.

Second line, first from the left: Pain of Salvation - Scarsick
fourth from the left: Train of Thought
Fourth line: don't know the first, then it's Load, The Division Bell, Morningrise and Fear of the Dark.

The ones i recognize:

First row: Renegade (i think its Renegade at least, by Hammerfall), and the blue/white looks like Grace Under Pressure.
Second row: Scarsick, Audioslave, Train of Thought
Third row: The Sky Moves Sideways, i also believe that the skeleton-one is a Slayer-album, though not sure of the name (and i might be wrong), i think the one in the middle is Beatles For Sale
Fourth row: Nightmare, Load, Division Bell, Morningrise, Fear of the Dark (not sure about the first)

Some i don't recognize at all.

Edit: I just realized that Nightmare was in it. :D

OK, one is from a Katatonia-related side-project. One is from a sludge metal band, two are from well-known black metal bands and the last one is from an Australian prog metal band.

8 is an REM album.

Is 3 Love over Gold by Dire Straits, by chance?

20 is Oasis' Definitely Maybe (can't believe I was the first to get that).

And I think 25 is Britney Spears, In the Zone perhaps?

EDIT: No, it's Oops I Did It Again.

And I'm fairly certain 3 is Love over Gold. It's not quite the right colour for the RTL cover.

First row, second pic looks familiar.

4th Row, Last pic - Octavarium.

I might be wrong, but aren't the balls on the Octavarium cover in silver and not green? :P

The last pic is Spock's Beard's The Kindness of Strangers.

The one before it is familiar too, but I can't think of it.

EDIT: I think it's A Saucerful of Secrets by Pink Floyd.

I recognised the Rod Matthews art style and the pic I saw on google was the other way round so maybe theirs was wrong.

Yup! Did you just know it, or did my hint help you?

It was the hint. And I don't really know why it helped to be honest but as soon as I read it I thought Moby. I guess somewhere deep down I'd retained the info.

Maybe. :lol

Shall I give hints for the remaining four or so?

13 is Moby Play. Yay got one!

Goddam it! Have that album too

Let the hints begin!

Post by: kári on July 30, 2011, 04:28:54 PM
Alright!

10: This is a band for Norway with some fans here.
17: Solo album by the frontman of a very popular classic rock band.
18: Well, one of my favourite albums. Sent a track off of it in a roulette. It's the best break-up album ever. You should listen to it.
23: Insanely popular here on the forum (well DTF.com back then). I still recommend it to people looking for something different.

They are way more famous than Genesis though.

Dunno. Hey, how about another hint for this last one? I'm just stumped and I find it surprising that nobody can recognize an album that was popular on the forums. :P
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: kári on July 31, 2011, 04:57:38 PM
It was a very common recommendation. I believe someone once said on DTF.com "I want [this abum] played in full on my funeral" or something like that.

6 looks like Ian Gillan but I can't find the album cover. In Rock is the closest but the angle seems wrong.
10 could be Marvin Gaye's What''s Going On.

Post by: Liberation on August 08, 2011, 05:01:39 PM
Ok, I expected these two would be harder (since neither band is particularly popular around here I think), so a hint for each:
B4: a band which started 100% black metal and was one of the earlier bands of the genre (however they are NOT from Scandinavia), over time becoming more industrial/electronic, this album being probably the furthest they've ventured in that direction.
D3: they have a lot in common with one of the other bands in my puzzle, already found. This is hands down their most controversial album and caused a massive WTF reaction on release, but many people started to appreciate it over time.

Getting complete pretty fast, I'm wondering if there should be some sort of agreement on when to start giving hints?

Bolt our agreement, here are some hints:

A2 - A band that relates very close to Ihsahn's solo project.
B2 - Carpathia is another album released by this German horror metal band
C3 - An album by a band playing metal tunes on a bowed string instrument
D3 - This album contains a track that has something to do with an Opeth live show

Also, a cat!

This one was a pretty interesting experience... I hadn't planned any particular theme (just my usual "colors vaguely matching in the same line", but this time I definitely didn't succeed :lol), but after doing the first six, I realised four of them have something very clearly in common, while the other two covers also have the same thing, I just didn't choose that part of the picture... So I decided to follow and chose all sixteen based on this idea. :)

Again, I guess some should be very easy, and others are pure evil. (Also, A4 is my all-time favourite album cover.)

Some little hints:
B1 - a band with some links with Decapitated.
B4 - band named after a poem.
C2 - a pretty veteran German metal band.
D1 - a band with some links with Riverside.
D4 - very famous rock band. (I'm surprised no one has got this one yet)

D1 - Indukti - IDMEN? (if that's right I'm pretty lucky, I remember hearing it a while ago)  :D

As for the others, I'm not at all sure.

C2 might be Kreator or Sodom (the first two German metal-bands to pop into my head), but I really don't know their discographies, and I might be wrong.
D4 reminded me of Signify at first (because of the colors), but that's not it.. I should probably look closer.

Hint for the only remaining B1: it's an EP, but probably one of their more popular releases. They play the first half of the EP live very often.

 :lol Sorry, I just thought it's a pretty popular release.

So, yes, it's finished. Someone else can create one now. :)

Post by: Zantera on October 08, 2011, 01:50:01 AM
I would love to make one, but I'm not really sure how to do it. :/
A while ago I tried to make one in Photoshop, but I didn't quite know all the functions that well, so when I was marking bits from each cover, they didn't get the same size, and I didn't find a solution to the problem and gave up.

How do you guys make these?
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: kári on October 08, 2011, 02:28:34 AM
In photoshop. Make a new file that's 500x500 for 25 album covers, (or 400x400 for 16, 500x400 for 20, ...). Then use the "Rectangular Marquee tool" (https://f.cl.ly/items/3P3D3O2H18203f2k3M1r/Schermafbeelding%202011-10-08%20om%2010.24.24.png)

Then if you look at the top, below the file, edit, ... bar you can set the style to "Fixed size" and enter 100 px for height and width. Now drag any album cover in there and now if you click on a portion it will select a 100x100 part of it, which you can drag around until you've found the right spot. Then right click, click select inverse and delete all the rest. Make sure you do this to each album cover in it's own layer, so you don't delete any of the previous ones.

Post by: Liberation on October 08, 2011, 05:09:24 AM
Well, I do it very simply... :P GIMP is the only more advanced one I use (and I can only use something like 10% of its functions anyway... still it's very useful sometimes), so basically I make an empty file there. Then I open Paint, find the cover I want, copy it there, cut out the part I want, copy to GIMP, place where I want it. That's it. Maybe it's not too clever but it works for me :P
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: Zantera on October 08, 2011, 05:18:13 AM
Okay, I have Photoshop CS5 (or 4) on my comp, but haven't installed it yet.
Might get GIMP seeing as I've heard it's easier in general, I'll see if I can make one there.
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: Liberation on October 08, 2011, 05:20:27 AM
You can simply do it the same way using Photoshop instead of GIMP probably, I use GIMP for putting it together because it's easier to move stuff around precisely there than in Paint.

I suspect that a lot of these will be easy for many here, seeing as some of them are pretty common around here.
It's not ONLY studio-albums, there might be one or two that is some form of other album, but I don't think it will be that hard.
Also, I'll post hints later on if people get stuck. :P

I'm going out in an hour or so, but when I get back later tonight, I might post hints for the rest, unless they have all been figured out by then ofc. :P
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: Lowdz on October 08, 2011, 02:40:19 PM
I thik for the first time ever that I don't recognize a single one.
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: Zantera on October 08, 2011, 03:47:24 PM
Okay, time for some hints I recon.
I'm gonna try to not put too obvious hints, I'll give away some info, and some might become clear, then I'll eventually reveal more about those who won't get recognized. :P

A1 - British Progressive/Alternative band with a lot of Post-Rock influences. Not as big on this forum as they should be sadly.
B3 - A Concept album about a woman traveling through America, post 9/11. (might be really obvious)
C3 - British Progressive Rock band, somewhat related to Oceansize.
C4 - I would almost have expected some fans of The Dear Hunter to get this one, it's a fairly new album that wasn't released that long ago, and Casey is very much involved.
C5 - 2011-album, by a singer/songwriter that has links to Anathema.
D4 - A band that is pretty popular here on DTF, and an album that is by many considered their best. The concept behind it could probably be considered very pretentious by an outsider, but I love it to bits.
E2 - Not the most obvious pick, but for the really big Steven Wilson-fans here, this album should not be impossible to guess. The title-track uses a lot of music from Bass Communion's song "Drugged", but again it's not that uncommon for Steven Wilson to re-use his music in other projects. ;)
E5 - Some connections to Alcest in terms of Country. I know she has quite a few fans here, and I would have expected Zander at least to take it right away.

There's a few hints for starters.  :)
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover

Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: Zantera on October 08, 2011, 04:14:35 PM
That is correct. I quoted my post to get it on top in this page as well, makes it easier.
I'll come back with more hints later, but I think that the ones I've given should help a bit, maybe just takes some thinking time. ;)

Yeah that's right! :P

Hints for the remaining ones:

A1 - A band that since earlier this year are no longer active, sadly. They did a Cardiacs cover recently, which was most likely the last song they recorded before the break-up.
B3 - Female singer/songwriter, this album in particular is by many considered her best outside of her 'classic' 4-albums. An artist I discovered this year, and she has been climbing very high since then, and I would probably rank her in my all time top10 favorites now.
C3 - One of the first albums to have come out in 2011, a double album that clocks in at over 120 minutes in length. A combination of Progressive, Alternative and Space-rock, there are lots of influences from bands like Porcupine Tree and Oceansize.

Could we please have a hint? B2 looks like it would be fairly recognizable if you knew the cover, but C4 looks like the kind of detail off to the side that you probably wouldn't remember unless you were looking for it.
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover

Sure. B2 is a band that broke up pretty recently, and C4 is a Canadian band that's pretty popular round DTF.

Nope, no prog, although I did try to mostly stick to stuff I knew people on the forum would know (with a few oddball ones). I think it adds to the challenge to have some variety in who posts these to get a rotation of genres. :tup

Two points to the Zydar. Hopefully these aren't too hard to get. I suspect a few of them may definitely need clues, but a lot of them I know are known by at least several people.

I did try to pick a less obvious part of the cover. I probably wouldn't have recognized it either. There are still a couple of others I think you might know.

Dude, do you really know this album?!

If so, then I want to make sweet, sweet love to you...............r music collection.  :biggrin:

The album was actually released last year, unless you mean you discovered it this year. I made the pic obvious, because I figured it would be obscure enough.


A3 Whitesnake Saints And Sinners (great album btw)

D3 Bruce Kulick- BK3

And both also correct. Surprised someone else got BK3 without a clue too, although I expected Saints and Sinners to go early.

lol. I'm an 80s boy and a KISS fan, hence knowing the BK3.
Love this album, as much if not more than After The Rain. No, I got it on release but thought that was this year... time flies! How Can I Miss You is a great song. It's a good grown up rock album.

The DLR is one of my favourites- Jason Becker owns that album, and Fair Warning is my fave VH album by far. All in all a good collage, and I know I've seen a few others, just struggling to place them.

Post by: BlobVanDam on October 13, 2011, 03:00:12 AM
First round of clues, so they're fairly general, but still help to narrow it down-

A1 - Melodic rock album released last year.
A2 - New wave of swedish sleaze metal.

B1 - Features a member of Dream Theater.
B2 - Folk rock. Coming from me, that pretty much gives it away.
B3 - Early 80s hard rock. The band is generally softer rock, and still going.

C1 - This metal band has a female vocalist.
C2 - Late 80s hair metal.
C4 - That's a dragon. So clearly this album is power metal.

D1 - Melodic death metal.

Do you know the Crazy Lixx album, or did you Google New Wave of Swedish Sleaze (since it's on the first page of Google image search results when I checked)? :lol

Because I either applaud your fine music tastes, or applaud your search skills. :hat

Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: Zydar on October 13, 2011, 03:28:03 AM
They were the first band I thought of when you said power metal and dragons, so I browsed their discography at wikipedia until I found the right album.

Yes I'm bored at work.

Round 2 of clues with only 3 to go-

B1 - Features a member of Dream Theater before they were in Dream Theater. The last clue made this easy enough, so how much easier can I make it? :lol

B3 - Early 80s hard rock album, with the band's well known singer. They no longer have that singer, but are still going.

C1 - A recent-ish American metal band with a female vocalist. This is their second album.

Correct.
And I didn't realize the colours were wrong. How far off are they? I grabbed a decent res version off Google, and there's a lot of variation in what shows up, so I grabbed the one that looked right to me. So sorry if it was wrong, and hopefully it didn't mess anyone up from guessing it!  :blush

Are you kidding me? I love that album! I only chose albums in my collection that I know (and really like them all).
It's a really good early 80s rock album, and a little quirky in its arrangements. The title track is the best straight forward rocker of the album. JR actually sent it to me himself because I hadn't been able to get a copy at the time.

Ok, let's get this finished up-

C1 is an album by a female fronted heavy metal band with a name beginning with "B". This is their second album. The section I took is a smallish part, so you may not see it so quickly. I actually expected this one to be easier, otherwise I would have made it more obvious.
Now Zydar has enough clues to look this one up. :lol

Since I have nothing but time....

It was an artist who won the Mercury Music Prize... They won the award with a different album "The Seldom Seen Kid"


The answer here though is:


Elbow- Cast of Thousands

9. It seems like every time I use something from the folk genre, people have trouble with it. :P
14. Successful indie band.
15. Kind of a landmark, unique at the time (60s) album from a band that used to be very famous but for some reason their popularity didn't transfer much into the present day. One of my favorite bands, so I'm a bit sad that no one got this. :'(
18. British band with several hits in the 70s, some of them with a quirky vibe.
20. Highly regarded album by an early post-rock group.
22. The leader of this band recently worked on an album with a musician very well-known on DTF.

Hooray, it's done. You guys should all check out What If, because it's a great album. Here's answers for the hints:

A musician that is very well-known here briefly toured with this band. Jordan Rudess played with the Dixie Dregs in 1994.
The drummer of this band is currently in a group with another musician very well-known by DTF. Rod Morgenstein is in the Jelly Jam with John Myung.
The leader of this band recently recorded an album with yet another musician very well-known by DTF. Guitarist Steve Morse is in Flying Colors with Mike Portnoy, but the album isn't out yet.

Some of these are easier, some are harder. I might post hints later on if some of them are too tricky, but I think a lot of them should be familiar, if you look closely. ;)
I didn't mark them with A1, B2 and so on, but as I see it, it's A, B, C, D and E for the different rows, and then 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 for left to right.

EDIT: The following are all more guessy, but I reckon...

C5 is a Sigur Ros album. Not big into them, but I'm gonna guess it's ( )?

Again, not a fan of this band, but I think... might C2 be The Parrot, The Pariah, the Delusion by Dredg? Probably just exposing my own ignorance, here, but I remember the art looking envelopey.

D2 has to be Anesthetize by Porcupine tree.
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: Ben_Jamin on June 07, 2012, 10:05:41 AM
A5 - Dead Air for Radios, Chroma Key. I don't think it's right but doesn't hurt to guess.
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: Zantera on June 07, 2012, 10:31:30 AM
D2 is indeed Anesthetize by Porcupine Tree.
A5 is not Chroma Key actually, but I'm almost a bit surprised people haven't gotten it yet, it's actually an album many here knows. :)

Post by: Zantera on June 07, 2012, 12:19:47 PM
The guesses so far have been correct, there are a few left. Thought I should give some hints:

B3: Avant-Garde/Experimental Metal
B4: Indie Rock/Pop, the band's second album
C1 & D4: Both of these are actually re-issue covers. The original artwork is different, but I've grown more fond of the re-issue versions, and I think they look cooler. C1 is a Progressive Metal-band, D4 is a Progressive/Alternative Rock band, both of the bands have new albums coming out later this year.
D1: Female artist, album number 3 in her discography.
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: Lowdz on June 07, 2012, 03:00:00 PM
Crazyaga- d2- Black Sabbath- Sabbath Bloody Sabbath

Love this thread and while I'm at work two come along. Didn't get a single one on Zantera's but some of Crazyaga's look familiar.
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: Vahvahenki on June 07, 2012, 03:30:48 PM
Crazyaga:

B4: Anathema - A Natural Disaster
D3: Faith No More - Angel Dust?
E4: Anathema - Weather Systems
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: lateralus88 on June 07, 2012, 03:37:02 PM
B3: Dir En Grey - Uroboros
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: Zantera on June 07, 2012, 03:45:20 PM
B3: Dir En Grey - Uroboros
Correct, some more clues:

B4: Female singers in it. Catchy stuff.
C1: Started out as pretty technical metalcore, eventually became more progressive, latest album and EP had more clean parts.
D1: From an island.
D4: Have opened for Porcupine Tree and Anathema (I believe), a band known for abducting the unicorn, and stealing pineapples.
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover

Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: Vahvahenki on June 07, 2012, 04:08:56 PM
B4: Eisley - Combinations
D4: The Pineapple Thief - Little Man
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: Zantera on June 07, 2012, 04:43:29 PM
B4: Eisley - Combinations
D4: The Pineapple Thief - Little Man

Both are correct, just two left now.
More hints for the last two:

C1: As I mentioned before the band will have a new album out later this year, which will be a follow-up to an EP that came out last year, both will share concept and themes.

D1: Possibly one of the most known female artist of the 90's/early 00's. Still makes wonderful music, released her latest album last year. Known for being very experimental, doing new and odd things, and never sticking to a certain sound. Has a very unique voice.

Seeing that this seems to be more or less dead, I will post a few hints to the ones that haven't been guessed.

A2: Album by a Finnish power metal band. Their name is a portmanteau.
B3: Live album from the seventies. Very well known.
B4: Triple live album, released after the band split up. Very well known.
B5: Album by a female-fronted metal band. They split up in 2010.
C1: Album by a rock band from Northern Ireland.
C3: Album released by an Australian song writer, who is also an actor.
D3: Rap/hip-hop album by a trio of young gents. One of their songs features Will Ferrell in the video.
E2: Debut album by a hard rock band from Arizona.

I hope that this helps.

Struggling with the last two.  I'm thinking D3 has to be Beastie Boys.  Any more hints for the last two?
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: Scorpion on June 11, 2012, 04:12:10 AM
Well, it's not Beastie Boys, that's for sure.

Hmmm... hints...

D3 features many guest musicians, including Jack Black, T-Pain and Justin Timberlake.
E2: one of its songs was featured in the horror movie Blood Guardian.

Dunno if that helps...
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover

Of course, D3 is The Lonely Island - Incredibad.  I should have known that one earlier.
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: Scorpion on June 11, 2012, 04:18:53 AM
Correct. One more, though I think that that might be a bit too obscure, even for DTF... I've never met anyone irl who listens to this music, anyway.

If anyone wants to have a go, knock yourself out. If there's nothing up within a day or two, I'll resolve the final one.

Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: Mladen on June 11, 2012, 09:02:49 AM
C4 is Opus Eponymous by Ghost.
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: lateralus88 on June 11, 2012, 09:18:58 AM
HINTS YO:

A1: Third album from this avant-garde metal band. Sometimes, it just makes me wanna dance.
A3: Metallica covered several songs from this album. Lyrically, this album is pretty evil.
A4: To narrow it down a little, the artist who recorded this album is often rumored to be a robot who was raised in a chicken coop. His headgear makes him standout.
A5: Doom/sludge metal of the highest caliber. This album is what scaling a mountain feels like. It's BIG.

B3: One of the best doom/progressive metal albums out there. It's a truly melancholic album.
B4: The exact opposite. Folk punk rock that puts anyone with a soul into a frenzy of good moods.

C3: German metal. Highly regarded for their stage performance and love for phallic objects.

D2: Second album from this progressive rock band. I'll give you a hint, they are touring with one of the biggest metal bands ever this year.
D5: One of my personal favourites in melodic death metal. Many people don't care for this bands first vocalist, but I think he is better than her.
E2: One of the better albums from this band who are regarded as the "god fathers of doom".

Close, you have half of that right.
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: Lowdz on June 11, 2012, 02:56:25 PM
Correct. One more, though I think that that might be a bit too obscure, even for DTF... I've never met anyone irl who listens to this music, anyway.

If anyone wants to have a go, knock yourself out. If there's nothing up within a day or two, I'll resolve the final one.

E2- Digital Summer- Cause & Effect. Took some tracking down- just having a listen on Myspace- pretty good modern rock.
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: lateralus88 on June 11, 2012, 03:07:48 PM
Moar hints -

A4: This is one of this artist's more straightforward album. Over 10 tracks, under 20.
A5: Both the band name and album name are 1 word each, 5 tracks. Remember, it's doomy and sludgy as fuck.
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: Scorpion on June 11, 2012, 03:21:07 PM
A5 looks a bit like Gojira, but I can't put my finger on what album it is.

UPDATED HINTS!!!


B1: Album that blends thrash and groove metal genres. Were at their biggest in the early to mid 90's, the band recently released a new album.

B5: Quite successful album blending psychedelic rock, dub and reggae influences. Band is more well known amongst the roots rock and indie scenes.

C2: This was the debut album from this "robot rock" band (not daft punk). They settled on their band name after initially calling themselves something else and being threatened with a lawsuit from a now fairly prominent power metal band.

D1: An alt-rock supergroup of sorts,  their only record. Famous lead member used an alias during the project which also happens to be the real name of an actor in the "Twilight" movie series.

Come on DTF, I know you can get these last few. I have another game prepared to put up next. I'm trying to to not to have to give these last few away but even if you didn't know these four you could likely google the info and get them.

I already listed B5 like a few posts above. It's "Songs from a Haunted House" by Jad Fair & Gilles-Vincent Rieder.

Um, no it's not. Look again.

I searched for B5 for a while, but had no luck. Sorry, WebRaider!

You're right. Sorry, my bad. The colouring was so similar and the genre stuff kinda fit.

LOL, well these aren't specifically meant to be albums on a Top 50 list (although there is some really quality stuff in these albums IMO). I personally have heard all of those albums but I mainly put them in that game because I liked the cover or just thought it would be an interesting addition to the Guess the album cover game. I figure if the album is exceptionally popular then it wouldn't be much of a challenge to get.


And the next list probably will be a bit more obscure than the first :/

Updated Hints!!!

A3: An album from a band biggest in the late 70's. They hated this album cover...lol (I think it's interesting anyway). A lot of people have considered them a "studio band" they infuse lots of jazz and R&B elements into their music.

C5: Hard to give clues without totally giving it away but it's an album from a Dutch metal band. They are influenced by progressive metal, metalcore, technical death metal and groove metal.

E3: This is a 70's radio rock band's greatest hits album released in 1981. Founded by a former member of The Flying Burrito Brothers.

A3 is the Royal Scam by Steely Dan, isn't it.


That is correct!

They were one of the bands I checked and missed it. Bugger.

Correct. Though I am at loss how you find this shit if you've never heard of them and I didn't yet give hints for that.

No-one got the DT one? And this place calls itself a Dream Theater Fan Forum? Shame on you. You all.

Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: Scorpion on June 17, 2012, 02:25:57 PM
 :tup It's D5, though.

I was just going to begin to post hints.

EDIT: Here are some hints for you.

A1: Album by a band that was the former project of a member of a well-known melodic death metal band. They do thrash metal, though.
A3: The first track of this album calls for having sex with an evil entity - the track itself is an instrumental.
A4: This is the latest record of an American deathcore band (according to Wikipedia - I have no idea what classifies as deathcore).
A5: Third record of a very popular rock band. All their album names follow a very boring pattern.

B2: Third album of a band who's drummer once played in a Christian metal band.
B4: Last album before the temporary split of a band that both wolfking and I have talked about quite a bit on these forums.

C2: Album by a Canadian rock band. The title track is a piano-only instrumental of thirty seconds.
C4: Album by a German punk band that has already toured with the Sex Pistols and Bad Religion.
C5: This band became known for their unorthodox covers (song covers, not album covers). This album doesn't feature any covers anymore, though.

D4: Album of a Welsh rock band. This album contains their only number one single on the Alternative Songs chart.

E1: Second album of a Scottish indie rock band. They went on hiatus after this album, but they are to reunite soon.

Hope that helps, though I still can't see many people knowing a lot of this stuff.

Quite right, old chap.

Say, what's your opinion on that one? It was the first Accept album I heard, and I still quite like it, but most people don't really like, from what I have heard here and irl.

It's one of the ones I'm less familiar with.  Nothing really stuck when I listened to it, so I never really gave it a good chance.  It has some great songs.  I should pull that one out and have a re-listen.

Correct with No, Virginia.

And I'm pretty sure that they exist... *extensive websearch*
Okay, C5 definitely exists, but FUCK ME! E4 seems to be an alternate/fan-made/whatever cover. Sorry for the mess-up, it was supposed to be Megadeth - Blood in the Water.

Did you check out Amanda Palmer's side-project Evelyn Evelyn? I really liked it, both in terms of the story and the music, especially that it was more guitar-oriented, something that worked surprisingly well, actually.

Well since it's early I'll post the genre of every remaining one:

A1: Kind of hard to categorize. It's electronic, but very unique. Sort of ambient, sorta noise. This is veryy different from the rest of his work.
A2: Folk rock
A3: Electronic. Kind of like ambient and dance colliding.
A4: Tough. It's rock, but not sure what kind.
A5: Trip-hop

B2: Post-rock
B3: Indie
B5: Trip-hop

C1: Celtic folk
C2: Indie folk
C3: Classic rock
C5: Lo-fi indie

D2: Avant-garde jazz
D3: Electro-swing
D4: Dubstep

E3: Jazzy experimental singer-songwriter kinda stuff
E4: Zeuhl
E5: Goth synth rock kinda stuff

Post by: LieLowTheWantedMan on June 30, 2012, 01:57:29 PM
Jeez, I try to diversify from the norm and this happens. :lol Oh well, that is correct. I'll probably just give away the answers in a bit unless someone else comes in. If anyone else does come in, here are hints for them:

A1: 2011 album by Brazilian electronic artist.
A2: British folk singer-songwriter. Initials are FT.
A3: 1994 double album by British electronic duo. I pimped these guys in a thread once, and this is on /mu/'s list of essential electronic albums.
A4: This female artist was more prominent in the 90s, but still writes music. Has won and been nominated for many awards.
A5: Arguably the highest regarded trip-hop album of all time, other than Mezzanine by Massive Attack.

B2: Final album by the inventors of post-rock. They were synthpop earlier in their career and made a song that was made more famous by No Doubt.
B3: Kind of the pinnacle of "hipster" albums. Any conversation about this album seems to influence talk of hipsters.
B5: Debut of arguably the most important group in trip-hop.

C2: Sophomore album of this indie folk band released in 2011. Not Bon Iver.
C3: An incredibly famous and highly acclaimed artist. His initials are DB.
C5: Lo-fi indie band by elementary school teacher. Known for rarely writing songs over 3 minutes in length. The #1 ranked indie album of all time on Amazon.

D2: Known for having an actual dead man on the cover. This album is sometimes credited as a band of the same name as the album, and sometimes credited to a very prolific avant-garde composer. You can see an N.
D4: Debut of this dubstep artist. Not "WUBWUBWUB" dubstep, the more subtle kind. His sophomore album is much more well known.

E3: Highly-regarded album by an artist known for having an incredibly low, raspy voice.
E4: First album by the inventors of the Zeuhl genre. Yes that's a swastika there. If you don't know what Zeuhl is, try a google search and you'll end up finding the band and the album.
E5: I don't know what to say except Zander (Ravenheart) would likely kick your asses if you do not get this.

If anyone's cool with another puzzle to solve, have at this:

(https://i.imgur.com/19kri.png)

A1 is a debut album
A2: Return To Forever- Where Have I Seen You Before (Pols Voice)
A3: Radiohead- Amnesiac (Mladen)
A4: The Kinks - Arthur (Or The Decline And Fall Of The British Empire) (Zydar)
A5: Sonic Youth- Daydream Nation (adace)
B1: Ben Folds Five - Whatever and Ever Amen (Big Hath)
B2: Joy Division- Unknown Pleasures (adace)
B3: The Cure- Seventeen Seconds (Big Hath)
B4 is a major change in style; some fans love it, others say it's when the band jumped the shark.
B5 is an album which involved Brian Eno

C1: Motorhead - Overkill (Big Hath)
C2: The Who- Who's Next (jingle.boy)
C3 also involved Brian Eno
C4: Queen- Queen II (Lowdz)
C5: Depeche Mode - Violator (Zydar)
D1 is unpopular among its band's fanbase
D2 is not for everyone
D3 is purple, like everything else by its band
D4 is from a couple years ago.  Some people love it, others detest it.  The word 'hipster' is sometimes tossed around by those who detest it.
D5 is heavy metal

E1: Rush - Permanent Waves (Big Hath)
E2 is by a band that's way popular among normal, non-proghead people
E3 is one of many solo albums by a guitar hero
E4 is from 1975

E5: Joe Satriani- Flying In A Blue Dream (Big Hath)

Big Hath does, at any rate.

Holy shit you zoomed in pretty tight on those.  That's her left elbow there.

Ok, I'll amend my first bet to say 'I'm willing to bet I don't know every grid of a 30x30 matrix of these album covers'

I've stared at those panties as much as the next perv, but I didn't even know what I was looking at there. At first glance I don't know any.

And bugger. Just realised I missed my 2112 post. Damn, was looking forward to making it special. :facepalm:

Post by: MasterShakezula on July 10, 2012, 07:07:28 PM
Alright, then:

A1 is a debut album
B1 involves piano and nerdiness
B3 is from 1980 and a second album.

B4 is a major change in style; some fans love it, others say it's when the band jumped the shark.
B5 is an album which involved Brian Eno
C1 sounds like every other album by its band.
C2 is all over classic rock radio
C3 also involved Brian Eno
C4's cover is way iconic
D1 is unpopular among its band's fanbase
D2 is not for everyone
D3 is purple, like everything else by its band
D4 is from a couple years ago.  Some people love it, others detest it.  The word 'hipster' is sometimes tossed around by those who detest it.
D5 is heavy metal
E2 is by a band that's way popular among normal, non-proghead people
E3 is one of many solo albums by a guitar hero
E4 is from 1975
E5 is by a different guitar hero

What's the easiest way to do one of these, I'm a bit of a n00b, and keep in mind, I don't have photoshop.

1. Write down the 25 albums that you want to use.
2. Download GIMP.
3. Find the first cover, preferrably in large sizes (1000x1000 does the trick quite nicely).
4. Copy it into Paint, where you select a square area of the cover. The size of the square can be as big as you want, but it shouldn't be under 100x100.
5. Open GIMP, create a new 500x500 pic.
6. Copy the first cover segment into it and scale it so that it is 100x100. Put it into the top left corner.
7. Repeat for the other 24 covers.
8. Congratulations! You have completed your very own album cover collage!

What's the easiest way to do one of these, I'm a bit of a n00b, and keep in mind, I don't have photoshop.

1. Write down the 25 albums that you want to use.
2. Download GIMP.
3. Find the first cover, preferrably in large sizes (1000x1000 does the trick quite nicely).
4. Copy it into Paint, where you select a square area of the cover. The size of the square can be as big as you want, but it shouldn't be under 100x100.
5. Open GIMP, create a new 500x500 pic.
6. Copy the first cover segment into it and scale it so that it is 100x100. Put it into the top left corner.
7. Repeat for the other 24 covers.
8. Congratulations! You have completed your very own album cover collage!

I don't use Paint. I just edit the covers in GIMP itself by copying the cover, then going to File > Create > From Clipboard. :)

Yes to both.

Edit: too late obviously
I might have interpreted wikipedia wrongly (I don't own it physically) but it says "four nine-track EPs". My apologies if that caused any confusion.

And that's all of them. Thanks for playing everyone.

I would do things like that and see what happens, I would write different things all the time.  I also try and be specific as possible.  The hints with the year of release are the easiest to get, because it narrows down a lot and you can search albums released that year.  Band names will stick out and sometimes you just get lucky.

Exactly why I chose it. I thought it was tradition to use a keepers album and to try to sneak in a DT one, so job done. Wolfie will kick himself. I did worry that everyone was going to blitz through it in no time.

Yup.

The spaceship one, the group's name is often shortened to three letters. Their guitarist featured on the Hear n Aid Stars charity record, contributing a solo.

The solo album was done in the 70s. HIs first name is his childhood nickname and the group he was in are mega famous. Even in Australia.

Okily dokily then.  I have no idea if this is gonna be too hard, or too easy.  Took a while for me to put it together (thanks to Scrop for the directions).  But, found a few shortcuts after a while, and I think subsequent ones will be quicker/easier to do.

Have at it.  And since Kade won't be up for a few hours, you all have a fighting chance to get a lead on him.

Good lord no.  Ok, moar hints.

C4 - The lead singer for this band (he's pretty legendary as well) is more well known for his original band (especially their debut album from the late 70s). 
D1 - This producer is probably best known for producing Metallica's s/t (and almost all of their releases since then).  He's also worked with Crue, DLR, Skid Row and several other well known artists.
E5 -  I didn't say "American" Idol.
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover

I'll give it to the end of the day.  I gotta think Lowdz will know both albums and/or artists (E5 ain't her best album by any means ... but I needed that eyeball :laugh:).  You'll probably know 'of' them.
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover

I have no doubt Lowdz will know them.

knowing them and recognising them are two different things  ;D

I recognise the eye... and checked US and uk idols, but the whole world has an "Idol" these days.
The other I don't recognise and the clues haven't helped. Losing my touch. Thought it was GTR but doesn't seem to be.
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: jingle.boy on September 03, 2012, 02:44:23 PM
Ok, last hints then.

C4 - the lead singer's original band had 3 very well known Classic Rock albums.  Also, he committed suicide in 2007.

E5 - Canadian idol. She also appeared on the second Roswell Six album.
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover

Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: FreezingPoint on September 03, 2012, 04:24:18 PM
I had an idea. Let me know what you think.

Instead of just random order it goes like this: each row is a different genre, and each column gets progressively harder, so 1 would be the easiest and 5 would be the hardest. It could almost be like a jeopardy kind of thing. I had debated, but am not sure now about making the genres get harder each row as well. The reason I am unsure of this is because someone might be a fan of a particular or obscure genre and just get all the ones from that genre that are supposed to be "hard".

I know that the whole points thing was debated a couple of pages back, and I agree that there should be none normally. But I had thought about giving points to this particular idea, where the hardest ones would be worth more than the easier ones. Since there first people usually can get a lot of the easier ones right away, since these would be worth less, it would not be as great an advantage to be the first person in the game. Haven't made my mind up about it yet, so I am not sure about the points idea.
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: wolfking on September 03, 2012, 04:32:30 PM
I think it's too hard to order them in the way of difficulty, as you said people might find ones easier than the others and vice versa. 

If no one has one ready, I can have one up in 12 hours or less.
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: jingle.boy on September 03, 2012, 05:13:49 PM
Sass Jordan- Present. I do have a SJ album but not this one. I've got Rats- pretty good actually.

I've got her first four ... all very different styles.  Tell Somebody is very poppy; Racine is soft-rock/bluesy; Rats is very hard-edged rock, and Present is a mixed bag, but more like Racine than anything else.  Rats is a great album.  I've got to check out here 2000s releases.

Interesting idea Freezing... but I think it should be the author's choice on how to do it.  For instance, my "eye" theme was a bit of a twist.
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover

Nope.  i think you're looking into it too hard.  You know the band well.  I guess they were more on the shock rock side of the 80's as opposed to the glam side.  Their first album ame out in 84 and is absolutely classic.

When I thought of WASP I recognised the cover straight away. Missed out on their middle years. Babylon was a good return to form though.
Still struggling on the other two I probably will know. Gonna need a more blatant hint!

I'm the same way with him, Population Override was the first I bought and it surprised me greatly, it remains my favorite Buckethead album.

Damn, I should've recognized Colma, but I'm on my phone so the image is quite small.

Yup.

That sums my stance on Buckethead up perfectly. :lol
Colma, however, is one of my favourite instrumental albums of all time.

Oh, btw, I updated the hints again.

Rattlehead, I present you: Scorpion's guide to making a cover collageTM

1. Write down the covers you want to use, and in which order they shall appear on the collage.
2. Find your cover for A1 on Google Images. A large version is always better, large ones can still be scaled down without looking like shit.
3. Open it a very basic picture program, I recommend IrfanView (freeware).
4. Select a square section and mark it, then copy this part.
5. Paste it into a file in a picture editing program that is a little more advanced, such as GIMP (freeware). This file should be 500x500, if you want to use twenty-five covers.
6. Scale the square section down to a 100x100 square and move it to the place where A1 is supposed to be.
7. Repeat 2-7 for the rest of the covers.
8. Save the picture.
9. Upload it to a site such as imgur.com (https://imgur.com).
10. Congratulations! You can now add your very own cover collage to DTF!

Mate, get that sweet caffeine into you, a true thing of beauty.  Had a nice double shot esspresso today myself.  Have been staying away from coffee more lately, but that made the shots extra special today.  Saying that, I'm about to go to bed, so this will probably be solved by the time I get on here tomorrow night.  :lol

And here you go.  Should be much easier now.

(https://i726.photobucket.com/albums/ww265/jingle-boy/Collage-hints.jpg)

To make things easier, use a new 9-block numbering scheme.  IE, the one in the top left of this image is now A1; bottom right is C3.  Capiche?

Two other hints.  C3 (above) is still a pretty small crop of the album.  I used a hi-res image.  B2 should actually be more of a green background ... the best image I could find of the cover had this blue tint.

An intrepid player might peruse any websites my profile may or may not link to.

It's entirely possible that 4 albums yet unknown have performers I would surely mention when listing my top 5 artists.  Actually, 2 albums already solved might have had them as performers, too..

The deluge of Norwegian albums was not on purpose, but it might be a sign I enjoy their avant garde metal scene.

Well, I noticed you took the image from the two disc box-set. But The ´main´ figure in it is from Bleeding, the background is from ´Into the Everflow´. That would be the more complete and correct answer.

All correct and updated.

There are 3 albums on here that are in the jazz family.  I do love how blues influenced rock guitarists early on.  I listen to a lot of jazz fusion, too, even solo albums from members of the big 3 70's fusion acts.

There's a US #1 on here, used to be a band but collapsed into a solo act about 40 years ago.  My favourite guitarist debuted on the album.

Speaking of which, advanced search might help you find a list of my top artists.

Know any artists that go by two initials?

Shit, sorry for putting the album on there.  I don't know who plays this game, but I know at least a few other prominent posters are familiar with her albums.  Her videos have gone around this site and fiveeights over the years and a few of us pick up her albums on release.  There's usually a small thread when she releases a new album, and it isn't always created by me. I also dropped a few hints early search for my top artists in case people didn't know her, she'll be mentioned every time.

Damn you went deep into the vault with a lot of these.
I didn't mean to make it this hard, most of these are albums I really love.  I haven't really built my library from recommendations on this site, so I'm a little out of touch for how well known anything is.  I tried to pick bands artists I know have been talked about or are prominent in their scene.  I feel bad some of these were hard, I thought more would be pretty easy.

In fact, I thought the last one would be too easy.  The album had it's own thread when it was released and still gets mentioned.  A quick search of the album title brought up 8 or 9 different posters mentioning the album.  I dropped an earlier hint that one of these albums was by an artist that goes by two initials.  That's binary for the initials.

I guess it's pretty easy to get far off the path of what's known/not known around here.  There's so much awesome music out there - and with the deep libraries that most of us have, it can be hard to know what's going to be easy/hard to get.  I'm sure I wouldn't have to get too far into my library to find shit no one has ever heard of... Rockhead and Shadow's Mignon did it pretty easily on my two creations.

In this case, I haven't even heard of most of those bands - I didn't check out a lot of your posts at LO back in April/May, since I was holding off on discovering anything new because I was holding my Roulette around that time.

What's funny is that you would expect Hardline to be one of the toughest on a prog rock/metal forum. :lol  That was an easy addition, though, I figured you or wolfking would get it quickly.  Ah well, I'll try to make a better one if I do this again.  Thanks to everyone for letting me try!

It is a great album... I always thought it was a bit underrated among most Slayer fans, I actually like it more than Reign In Blood. That little bit of album artwork stood out immediately to me though, I wasn't sure at first that it was South of Heaven, but I knew it was Slayer.  :lol

(https://i.imgur.com/sNdf9.jpg)

A1 (formerly A2): The Strawbs - From the Witchwood (Lowdz)
A2 (formerly A3): Second album by a contemporary progressive metal band. The band hails from England, has a female singer and does lots of vocal harmonies between the singer and their guitarist. The band doesn't really get talked about here.
B1 (formerly B2): The Orb (feat. David Gilmour) - Metallic Spheres (wolfking)
B2 (formerly B5): Released in 2011, band consists mostly of women, the album snippet is the bottom right corner. Star Wars reference.

I hope this will make it doable. I'll update the hints once more when this doesn't prove to be successful.

Ahw, shiitt. Anyone for at least The bottom right one? That album got talked about a lot when it was released. We have at least a couple of avid fans of the band. Here's another hint; Star Wars reference. Go!

Tell me, do you think any of the remaining three are bands that one should know well?
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: Elite on October 23, 2012, 05:21:32 AM
No.
A1 is a very unknown band nowadays, but this keyboard player who played in it is known by virtually everyone that's remotely into prog. I must say, he was only in the band for this one album, though he was featured on the one before as well.
A2 is an unknown band, one you've only heard of if you have heard of them, I figured this would be one of the last to go.
B2 is relatively unknown, but does have a following and is mentioned quite often on this forum.

I'm not sure I know how I could make it easier for the remaining 2. A2 probably won't be guessed if it hasn't been so far and a brief search throughout these forums show the band hasn't been talked about more than about 3 mentions, one of which is in my OP in my Roulette (as a band forbidden to send). B2 surprises me to take so long. If you look closely there's small rays of light coming from the middle of the artwork; this is the bottom right corner, there's a girl, very clearly in the middle of the artwork. Again, the band has it's own thread here and the bandname is a very obvious Star Wars reference.

There is a very definitive theme/trend.  Let's see who can pick up on it as album titles get revealed.

(https://i726.photobucket.com/albums/ww265/jingle-boy/A-ZCollage.jpg)

Ready, Aim, Fire.

A1 - Led Zeppelin/In Through the Out Door (Nekov)
A2 - First solo album after leaving the 'other' holy triumpherant
A3 - who's my favorite band of all time?
A4 - Whitesnake/Whitesnake (Blob)
A5 - Spock's Beard/Octane (Lowdz)

B1 - Yes/The Yes Album (Lowdz)
B2 - White Lion/Big Game (Freezing Point)
B3 - Queensryche/Q2k (Lowdz)
B4 - Johnnythesuperfan wouldn't need no hint
B5 - Star One/Space Metal (Pols Voice)

C1 - No one could figure out the album for "x"??
C2 - Threshold/Clone (wolfking)
C3 - Styx/Pieces of Eight (Pols Voice)
C4 - The flip-side of A2's hint
C5 - Self titled and first release from this prog-metal band.  Let's see if solving for any more letters helps to narrow it down

D1 - The Police/Zenyatta Mondatta (Pols Voice)
D2 - Roswell Six/Terra Incognitta: A Line In The Sand (wolfking)
D3 - hhhmmmm not sure how to give a hint.  One of my odd choices from my Top 50
D4 - Axel Rudi Pell/Mystica (Lowdz)
D5 - Evergrey/The Dark Discovery (wolfking)

E1 - Mr. Big/Lean Into It (Lowdz)
E2 - Female led symphinc metal
E3 - It might 'kill' you when you find out which glam act this is
E4 - Savatage/Hall of the Mountain King (Lowdz)
E5 - Nocturnal Rites/Grand Illusion (Lowdz)

Nice comeback.

Off to bed now.  A few notes;

A1 is a band not many around here know, and only has been mentioned a couple of times.
C3 is one that I thought would have been the first to go.
D5 Chad wouldn't know this, Lowdz does, not sure if anyone else does though.
E5 Underrated thrash band but have had a resonably popular following.  They gained more attention with this album, but have been around for years.
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: jingle.boy on November 08, 2012, 06:02:11 AM
C3 is killing me.  Not Evergrey, Firewind, Nocturnal Rites, Blind Guardian (debatable whether the latter three are 'prog').  Drawing a blank on other prog-metal bands that have 6 releases or more.  Not DT, QR, SX, SG.

A1 ... since I don't know what it is, I'll comment on what it isn't.  Not Yngvie, Jorn or Dio.  Dickinson didn't have a 2000 release.  Ditto with Vai and Satch.  There's already an ARP album there (it's not Masquerade anyway).

Their 1st album was an American early power metal - before there was power metal - album. One of the guitarist is Floyd Rose of inventing the locking whammy bar fame, and he puts it to good use on the debut. This, their follow up was more AOR and polished- good songs but not as rocking as the 1st and they disappeared.

GR I probably would based on how they've been described in some Top 50s.  Tried Riverside, and they've failed me.  Helloween I have not.

The sheer fact that you KNOW the album is enough for me. The people I tend to talk to about Lordi only know The Arockalypse because of "Hard Rock Halleluja".

I'm not a massive fan, but am familiar with a lot of their work.  That piece of the cover just stood out though.

Sure! I have class in five minutes, so you'll have to wait a while, but to tide you over, I can tell you that... A5 is an album of a band that you interrupted listening to today in order to listen something else that was probably not worth interrupting the original band for.

Soilwork?  I had a feeling it might have been then and I looked at their covers. I looked long and hard at Sworn to A Great Divide too thinking it was that.  I'll be back.
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover

It is Sworn to A Great Divide.  You know, I looked at the middle of that album cover and I was sure it was it, but I couldn't see the sides, in the pic here they look like faces, I covered them up and it was like a Mad magazine, there it is.  :lol

HOW TO MAKE A COVER-COLLAGE, THE STEP-BY-STEP TUTORIAL

1. Download the free program GIMP (which is useful for pretty much any kind of picture editing!).
2. Choose twenty-five albums that you want to use.
3. Create a new image in GIMP that is 500x500 pixels.
4. Look for the cover of your first album on Google Images.
5. Copy it and choose a section from that (easiest with Paint).
6. Copy that part in GIMP, resize it 100x100 (it should be bigger earlier, otherwise this will ugly!).
7. Move that part into the upper left corner (A1).
8. Repeat steps 4-6 for the remaining albums and always move the parts to the correct place.
9. Once you've finished, save the image and upload it to https://www.imgur.com or a similar site.
10. Copy the link into the following tags:
Code: [Select]
[img][/img].
11. Profit!

Bolsters beat you to it.

Nice to see the revived interest.  I've thought about this game every so often for a couple of years, and last night Mrs Jingle went to bed early, I felt like a couple of fingers of scotch, so I said fuckit and built the grid.  Glad it wasn't too hard - I even threw in a few bones for so that the likes of Parama could have a play.   ;)

My grid is like this:

   1  2  3  4  5
A
B
C
D
E


Had to be different, huh?  For consistency, going forward can we use one or the other?  I did mine with letters on the X-axis because that's how you read graph/grid coordinates - Horizontal/Vertical... therefore A1.  Technically, we are solving the points of 1A, 1B etc... under this  :biggrin:.  Minor nit, but for consistency, I say we use the same format.  Guess the next person decides!

As for the covers...  A couple look familiar, so I'll be back
Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: Elite on February 04, 2018, 06:14:43 AM
Had to be different, huh?

Yeah, sorry :(

I did them this way so you can read them from top to bottom, like how we read basically anything. I understand yours was done to represent an xy-axis, but reading something like this from the bottom left corner upwards was very confusing for me..

All answers so far are correct as well, I'll update the initial post!

Roger Dean (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roger_Dean_(artist))

He's the artist famous for doing all those iconic Yes album covers (along with many others). It looks like his style. Might be enough of a hint for someone to guess it?

Also, major  :tup to that cover. It's one of my favourites from him.

It was really difficult to be honest. If the little part of picture we got wasn't just blue then I think it would've been guessed much quicker. It made it look like the whole album cover was going to be blue or something.

A1: Hint: Brittish 70-ties band, produced by John Mutt Lange, had one hit from another album that is on a lot of compilations of 70-ties music.

Not sure this is much of a hint... I just went to Mutt Lange's Wiki page, and for the life of me can't figure out what album/band this might be.

I decided to do a little research, and came up with the solution to A3. It's The Fire sermon by The Violent Hour.

She had a massive hit in the 80-ties with R.U.T.H

Close enough.  It's Louis Osbourne, Ozzy's soon with his first wife Thelma.  Jack wasn't born until four years after Diary was released.

I didn't even know until recently that Ozzy had two kids with Thelma and that he adopted Thelma's son from a prior relationship.

The majority is in the realms of rock/metal and it's sub-genres. There's thrash, doom, sludge, power, industrial, battle, black, death, progressive and post-metal covered here.

There's nothing too obscure here that no one on the forum will have heard of them.

Well when I originally cropped the images they were slightly bigger. When I used the site that Tomislav suggested, and clicked on auto-collage it did this. I lost a bit from each image but thought I'd go with it.

I won't have time to edit it tonight but I can do it tomorrow if people are struggling.

I think this could be the culprit. 

When I did my last one, I tried to use 600x600 album covers, then take a 100x100 snip.  I think if one does a 100x100 clip from a 500x500 file (and thus the 'collage' is the size of an actual album cover) it can get a little too easy - although, apparently my last one was pretty damned easy.   :lol

Most of those hints will do nothing for me... not my tastes.

But E1 should be something I'd potentially be aware of.  Must be a somewhat obscure band, because (after a little research), nothing obvious is jumping out at me.  Maybe wolfking/Bolsters/bl5150 will know.

I would have gotten Colliding Skies easily if it weren't for this fantastic 'hint'. I looked at it and thought it had to be Colliding Skies, because that would be Australian prog metal, but then the hint said 2017, while the album is from 2015 :(

Beggars is a solid album, but it would probably land outside of my top 5 favorite Thrice albums.

By the way, I went back and added hints to the remaining albums. I have a feeling one of them may be tough because I've never seen the band mentioned on this forum, so I'll add more hints if needed.

I literally own zero of those albums.

Are you not even familiar with any of them though? I tried to throw some diversity in there and not add anything too obscure, just so a good amount of people would be able to participate.

Pick any name from yours and ask 100 random people if they have heard of that group.
Take for instance AudioSlave from this one and ask the same 100 random people if they have heard of them.

Do you really think your selection would be known to as many people?

yeah, but this isn't the audioslave fan forums. obviously if this was some pop board and we were playing this game i wouldn't be posting the same board of album covers because there's zero chance anyone would know any of those bands.

but this is DTF.

You're underestimating what the regulars of this section listen to or what they're aware of at least. I didn't recognize many covers from Parama's second set, but once they were guessed I recognized quite a few bands. Cult of Luna's "Somewhere Along the Highway" is a classic post-metal album, for example.

I literally own zero of those albums.

Are you not even familiar with any of them though? I tried to throw some diversity in there and not add anything too obscure, just so a good amount of people would be able to participate.

Nope, not familiar.  Clearly, I've heard *of* most of them, but literally (still) I own zero of these.

Ok... now someone do one that's got more than single 'token' album for me to guess at.   :lol

I'm surprised you don't know Helloween, I thought that'd be the sort of thing you'd know?

Helloween was just a bit off outside my comfort zone back then.

actually, no. It was a meticulously typed hint, in which one letter, the 'N', was omitted, 'missing', as both wolfking and IDontNotDoThings have been able to point out. How this hint would be applied to the albums left to guess was up to you, the participants. I have hidden a pattern in the album grid, which you might have found already, but I doubt it, since no new guesses have been made after this hi(n)t.

I'm sure all the albums left can be guessed one way or another. They're not ridiculously obscure or anything. Maybe this will help. As you can see, the N is definitely missing.

You must have missed something then..

I didn't think this would be so difficult. The 'intestines' on the cover are from an inanimate object that fills up almost the whole album cover. A physical version of whatever is portrayed on the album was also sold by the band on tour and served as some sort of 'mascot' for the band. The album was released in 1999.

Post by: wolfking on March 04, 2018, 04:43:39 AM
That is the main cover but I think there was a competition and they got fans to draw the cover and that came first.  The other three are shown in here and were released when the album came out but I think after a while or maybe the tour or whatever, just the main teddy bear cover was released.

That is the main cover but I think there was a competition and they got fans to draw the cover and that came first.  The other three are shown in here and were released when the album came out but I think after a while or maybe the tour or whatever, just the main teddy bear cover was released.

This has probably always been my fav Korn album also, it's wonderful.

Yeah this is mine, always thought it was the only version

Which means I'm absolutely terrible for not guessing this one, it was actually the first album I ever purchased :lol it's probably my favourite Korn album too. I kept thinking the image snippet was a feather

D1: AS - TS (Deluxe) (2016) - well-known metal band's most recent album, with theming based in space & technology
E1: ID - S+M (Deluxe) (2015) - sophomore album from a pop-band, I also added the proper punctuation in the album title
E2: R - S (1982) - follow-up to a critically acclaimed prog album, notable for its emphasis on synths

Alright then! There is a theme (I might reveal it as a hint), and there's some variety which means both Chad and Tim and Kade will probably be able to guess something, but on the other hand folks like Luke, Dennis and Parama will also be able to get some of those. Unless I've made it too difficult or too easy, which might be the case because I've never done this before.

The crop is 100x100 from 500x500 images, which may make this easier than intended. The bottom row I consider the most difficult, otherwise it's all about the same difficulty.

Yeah, I was counting on you with this one.

I actually expect maybe three or four of these to stay unguessed, but if I've learned anything during my five years on DTF, it's that I shouldn't underestimate the community. I will probably wake up tomorrow and every single album is guessed.

My advice is to take these letter guesses with a grain of salt. Not all of them are correct.

Nice... I'd like to think I would've eventually got those if I'd worked my way to that area of my library.

I feel I should know C2, with it being a fleur de lis and all, but I can't seem to think of a French or Quebec based band with that cover.  And I'm having a devil of a time figuring out SK_IN

Damn it, these things are quite time-consuming.

Anyway, here we go. There is a theme, but you're probably better off not to bother with it for now, just guess away the albums.

The crop is 100x100 from 500x500 images, no difficulty range whatsoever.

Friendly warning: most of these are power metal, prog metal and hard rock. There are a few exceptions (maybe about five of them), but just so you know, if you're not into these genres, this would probably be difficult for you. On the other hand, some of these may be too easy for the people familiar with these genres.

Yes... jump in whenever you know what one of the album covers is.  Whenever one collage is finished, anyone who wants to can step up and fire up another one.

D2 - Lead singers include Oliver Hartman (98-03); Mats Levin (03-07); and currently Rick Altzi (07-present).  Their last album was in 2012.  Lowder gave them to me in my 2nd Roulette

D3 - 2004 release is the band's only one; also German, fronted by a vocalist of a WELL known (at least in these parts) german prog metal band.  Lowder also gave me this ... in my 3rd Roulette.

Paul... you should feel some immense shame.

I mean, the hint for At Vance was "1998 album from German Melodic Metal band; rotating door of well known vocalists" and Google shows Ride the Sky to be released in 2009, so there's that. I'm not a fan of the band so I don't know which one is right, but I did Google At Vance and didn't find any of their albums released in 1998. :)

There are a couple that I think I should know but can't put my finger on. The solution to E4 will surely end in a big facepalm for me.

Oh, and E1 with the lightning and the raised sword should be Manowar  :biggrin:

I have seen E4 before but cannot think of the name - not my genre/era.

What I can tell you is that the head ain't as good as what the body might have you hoping for  :lol

E4: 10CC - How Dare You

Alright, now you got me confused, because I've never seen that cover and hardly know the band, but i could still swear I know it. Is there another record out there with a similar cover?

No I know. The background is different. I don’t know Type O so I never wouldve got that. But it was F&J that I was thinking of last night when it was driving me crazy.

Some of these look familiar but I’ve got to go to work now. Would have tried to have a sneaky look at work but the filter flagged DTF as pornography the other day  :blush

First thing that came to my mind was Scorpions for some reason.  Can't think of the album but it's not that similar at all I don't think.

If it looks like a Meshuggah and walks like a Meshuggah, it might just be a Meshuggah. (that means you're right)

OK, E1 was not what I thought it was. I assumed the head was in the top right corner of the full cover.

A2: When I read the clue, I immediately thought of The Polyphonic Spree (who had c. 24 members at one point, but could have lost some in the meantime), but I don't think it's them. And it's certainly not this now, but the colour scheme initially made me think of Transatlantic's SMPT:e.

Ok, only 4 more to go. I think someone will be able to swoop in and get A2 and C3. A3 is unlikely I think and I’ll admit that B4 I made too difficult. I’m off to bed shortly so will add clues in the morning if there’s anything left unguessed.

I cropped all these images on my phone but they were all slightly different sizes. When the site I used did ‘auto collage’ it fit them all to size but unfortunately meant some of these are smaller than I originally intended. B4 is a bit obscure to begin with, which didn’t help.

I’ll fire up some clues…

Not the right color scheme for Fragile.  Actually looks a lot like the Yesyears collection, but it's not that either.

I've not even heard of any of the 10 artists that have already been revealed and had a bit of a chuckle at the notion of "a well-known folk band from Norway."

That said, it looks like A1 is Heaven, Wait by Ghostly Kisses.

I'm completely not embarrassed... I own precisely zero of these.  I've got a few Trivium albums saved on Spotify, but I don't feel bad at all that I didn't recognize a single one of these.   :rollin

I might build one over the weekend.  If so, we're going 4x4 now?

I have 10 of them on my iPod and a couple I’ve listened to on Spotify a few times. Even the ones I don’t listen to, I know the band well enough to recognise the album covers.

Yea go for it dude. It can be bigger than 4x4. The more you do the more I might have a chance of getting some (although I doubt I will).

Oh cool. I suck at these and would've never gotten that.




I think my ignorance goes to show how little emphasis I put on staring at album art as I did when I was younger. Digital age I guess, which doesn't explain how you guys got them all.. :lol

Maybe I just suck at this! :lol :lol

Feel like I should know C3 - thought it was Omnium Gatherum but apparently not. B4 looks familiar also.

A1, B2 and C2 are vague enough so that I won't be surprised if I know them, but also won't be surprised if I don't.

No idea about the rest.

Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: Tomislav95 on October 13, 2023, 02:50:30 AM
I think A1 will get guessed eventually, it's obscure but I know for sure it's been shared in roulettes etc.

For A4, if I went with a different album someone would guess it for sure. The singer is somehow connected to Opeth and Paradise Lost without ever being in either of those bands :angel:

B1 is maybe too hard, I don't know... 2011 album

I think many of you would love C2, I didn't know it was obscure around here. Even though this album is their debut from 2017 it reminds me of Wishbone Ash

BTW if anyone is ready to post the next one I will reveal everything

The brain's a fucking crazy thing man. I don't even listen to Have a Nice Life, I just remember it being sent in a roulette back when I first started participating in them. I probably listened to the album once.

I recognised the album art but took a while to remember the artist.

I thought the clue was “English progressive group with their 15th record, etc.,” which is why I thought maybe it was Yes. But maybe my reading comprehension failed me!

What I do (and there's surely a better way to do this) is download each individual album artwork, crop it to whatever snippet you want, and then assemble everything using the site Pixlr (https://pixlr.com/suite/).

I played a lot of Scrabble (online and IRL) so I'm alright/good at that.

Speaking of games, one day I'd like to fire up a Telephone Pictionary game in General Discussion, not sure if there would be enough interest though. Basically each participant sends the host a sentence or two (could be themed, e.g. song lyrics), then the host randomizes them and sends them out for people to draw (by hand or MS Paint/Photoshop/anything), then the host randomizes the drawings and sends them out again for people to describe, repeat the cycle 4 or 5 times. All that happens through the PMs, then the initial sentences and the final sentences are posted and people try to match the sentences. In the end the full chains of phrases/pics are posted for everyone to enjoy. I played it on the A Song of Ice and Fire forum ~10 years ago and remember it to be hilarious.

I'm always up for a new forum game, especially one I can flex my drawing skills in!

Nice, I may actually do that sooner than later then. Just so people could see how it works, I found one of the old chains with working img links:

Quote
(first turn) Blackbear said: For his sins the man was transformed into a terrible beast, to roam the land for all time.

Bucks drew: https://31.media.tumblr.com/d4de56439dd43278bb1abc3f52276172/tumblr_n2n25iPeLy1rsmw5fo1_1280.png

Dreamsongs: The man decided to ignore his Biblical upbringing and risk God's wrath to follow the friendly Minotaur into the woods because he had to pee urgently.

TC drew: http://i.imgur.com/iM0S80I.png

Nazca: On the way from church to a hiking trail a ginger, who needs to pee badly, is threatened by a Minotaur without fingers.

Florance drew: http://i.imgur.com/85u9c2w.jpg

Coral: The red headed boy must past the church with the golden bell and the moose on two legs without touching him to reach his objective

Lany drew: http://i.imgur.com/jAQnayn.jpg?2

(last turn) Evermind: There's no way the holy moose will stop me getting to the finish.

Sorry for derailing your game Kade.

Never apologise mate.  Always up for a new game too.

It's a pain in the ass if you ask me, but the way I do it is just open up two paint screens, one for your collage and one for clipping.  Goggle the album cover you want, find it at decent size, copy it and paste it into paint.  Then simply select a square box and make it the same for each cover.  For that one I did 175x175.  Copied then that selected square and pasted it into my main paint screen.  positioned each one next to each other and then save the whole thing as a single picture, then host then post.

Yeah, I guess that's why I picked a few obscure ones and just grabbed whatever from the images. 

Yeah, I couldn't figure it out.

If you really want to do one, I can make one for you, just send me a list of albums.  And maybe specific parts of the covers you want.

I use this site (https://www.albumartexchange.com/) for album artwork. You have to make an account (which is free) to download without a watermark.

And this is what I've done in the past
What I do (and there's surely a better way to do this) is download each individual album artwork, crop it to whatever snippet you want, and then assemble everything using the site Pixlr (https://pixlr.com/suite/).

Title: Re: Forum Game: Guess the album cover
Post by: wolfking on December 06, 2023, 07:03:19 PM
Pretty much what Metro just said, that's simpler.  Maybe this Pixel program is more user friendly than Paint?  I would think downloading each album cover though may be more time consuming?  Although might be easier to organise that way.

E1 looks like a Yes cover but it totally would have been guessed already if it were. :P
I was thinking the same thing.

Also E4 and E5 are driving me nuts.

Yea, it's not a Yes album but it totally looks like it could be from that snippet.

I reckon you'd know both E4 and E5 dude, but E5 is really tough and I might change it to make it a little more obvious.

Is C4 Rage Against the Machine, the monk burning?

It's not I'm afraid dude.

According to Puppies Last.fm, he's listened to the album.

A2: Capharnaum - Fractured

Turns out I didn't know this one. Never heard of them. In my head I was convinced it was something like an Insomnium or Amorphis cover.

B4: The Faceless - Akeldama.  I knew this one was familiar.

I've never even heard this Faceless album (or realised it existed).
