I thought the same thing about "hipstercore."  Is that really a term that needs to exist?
Well it could describe deafheaven but none of their albums match the cover :neverusethis:

Could it perhaps be Radiohead - OK Pablo Honey?

EDIT: Nvm, forgot that all albums are at least 2006 (?) or more recent, still looks really similar tho

Pablo Honey does have a couple of decent tracks and surely isn't the abomination people usually speak of. Yes, Radiohead did way better in latter years, but as far as debut albums go, I can think of far worse records.
Hey dude slow the fuck down so we can finish together at the same time.  :biggrin:

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.
