and #18, which is the first five records of a longer career:

Wild guess at #17 from debut with white lines on black: Sigur Rós? They have more albums though...

Bingo.

I was staring at that one for the longest time, sure I could get it, and of course it turns out to be a discography I own 100% of.
― Manchego Bay (G00blar), Wednesday, 26 November 2008 21:25 (fifteen years ago) link
Nice sentence construction, dumbass^^
yes, radiohead xp.
― Slumpman, Wednesday, 26 November 2008 21:26 (fifteen years ago) link
haha is that a young Yorke in pic #3? :p
― anatol_merklich, Wednesday, 26 November 2008 21:27 (fifteen years ago) link
34, picture 3 is bringing up a strong memory - I'm seeing a sleeve with pink background, TV in the middle ground showing static, a few blue graphics and type in a calculator-stylee. But I cannot for the life of me remember what the album is.

39. http://i38.tinypic.com/fa0fwx.jpg
harder, i think.
― Slumpman, Wednesday, 26 November 2008 21:30 (fifteen years ago) link
for 34, number two is probably the key one, the most perfect match chromatically.

You are correct.
― jaymc, Wednesday, 26 November 2008 21:51 (fifteen years ago) link
(I didn't include Gling-Glo, Telegram, or the album she made when she was 11, just 'cause I thought that would be too confusing.)

Some of these are ridiculously close matches:http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b86/mpcot1/ColourCover2-1.jpg

44 Strokes?

It is The Strokes. It may even be a Stroke in the first picture

Yeah. I was tempted to pick less obvious photos, but I'm sort of in awe about how close #5, for instance, resembles Gimme Fiction.
― jaymc, Wednesday, 26 November 2008 22:12 (fifteen years ago) link
#'s 5 and 6 were the keys to that one.
― Mr. Que, Wednesday, 26 November 2008 22:13 (fifteen years ago) link
Talking of similarity, I may have found the ultimate band for images to render the whole asking nearly obsolete (provided one remembers them, that is):

― anatol_merklich, Wednesday, 26 November 2008 22:21 (fifteen years ago) link
Hahaha! Their website lists more than a dozen horrible albums, though
― Ismael Klata, Wednesday, 26 November 2008 22:24 (fifteen years ago) link
Carter USM, that is. Wikipedia tells me they are still releasing greatest hits nearly every year.
― Ismael Klata, Wednesday, 26 November 2008 22:29 (fifteen years ago) link
Huh. And here I was thinking that #3 was Zooropa.

Ah, you've left out Strawberry and Wine?
― anatol_merklich, Wednesday, 26 November 2008 22:39 (fifteen years ago) link
I don't believe it really exists.
― Ismael Klata, Wednesday, 26 November 2008 22:40 (fifteen years ago) link
Just as well. (So 47 = MBV, for completeness.)
Another good band for near-tautological picks:
