First, go to a random Wikipedia article. This is your band's name.
Then, scroll to the bottom of here. The last four words of the last quote are the title of the album.
Take the fourth picture from here. This is the picture for the album cover.
Finally, put it in Paint, GIMP, Photoshop, or other image editor of your choice, make a cover out of it, and put it up here.

Here's what I've done so far:

Politics of Lower Saxony
A British indie band known for changing the genre of each of their albums, POLS's new sixth studio album is a fusion of aggressive death metal and faux-French hip-hop. Highlights include the tracks "The Deeper They Burn", the title track, and "Oui, Fromage (The Only French Words I Know)".

Vitas - Dreams of thy Youth
Fans of Vitas will be surprised with their sophomore effort, Dreams of Thy Youth; it's a change from their first album's established style in many ways. The screaming punk anthems of before are now augmented with bittersweet love ballads and occasional atmospheric outings. While the changeup is welcome, there will undoubtably be some mixed feelings among the band's established fanbase.

Blackfriars Road - Nuclear War is Unsettling
The debut album from this Austrian hard rock group is quite a mixed bag. While the two popular preview singles released on MySpace, "Cars and Guns" and "Brass Balls", have gained much popularity, the band's single-minded focus on rocking out is often at odds with their thoughtful, socially conscious lyrics.

This is so cool. Your idea, or what?

Just wait until I can use Photoshop on a better basis...
