82 = Sex Pistols?

Rev, is that Ghostface?

uh huh

The Bulletproof Wallets one cracked me up when I saw it cause it was so uncanny

91 is mclusky is it not?

59 = Spacmen 3.

I'm probably wrong, but 86 really looks like Brainticket to me.

Ah, but 86b probably scuppers that, as I have no idea what that could be.

82=Pistols, yes.

93.

sorry if thats a bit off-puttingly big

88 is Wire's first three albums, yep.

This might be very easy, but they're probably all very easy to the person who did them. And you might have forgotten #4 existed anyway.

94: http://www.low-fi.co.uk/randomness/somealbums.jpg

Is 94 Ride perchance?

It is indeed!

Weird when you find one which REALLY reminds you of an album cover which you know isn't the right answer, so you stick that album through the grinder, and none of the results resemble the original pic. I got that with these two (not same artist) (might do the actual artists, but one is maybe unsportingly obscure, and the other this is the only album art of theirs I could even recall, so...):

(this is not a discography/question, just demonstrations of above, taken from previous questions)

Number two puts me in mind of In On The Killtaker by Fugazi

91 is mclusky is it not?

yup

(xpost)

Yeah, sorry, it was from Hurting's Fugazi q, number 27. But it made me think of this Polvo album:
http://www.southern.com/southern/band/POLVO/pics/19114.jpg

Not even sure so much why, now. (Thought the other was Black Dog - Spanners, and that one's not answered - number 84 - but given that Geir posted it and I don't recognise the others, it's not really going to be...)

wtf, how can it be one or the other of those two, they're completely different!

Well, I don't know, T; you'll just have to make like Summer Sanders and FIGURE IT OUT

I'm probably wrong, but 86 really looks like Brainticket to me.

86 is not Brainticket

85 should be easy though.

LOVE the (x or y) thing myself; UK vs US issues (e.g.) kept me from doing a couple, and this is obv The Way Forward.

xpost I'm sorry Daavid, claiming something is easy is not enough to make it so. :p :p

non-xpost: erm yes drunX0r :D

59 = Spacmen 3.

Yes!

I know, I just thought it would be. But of course, since I posted it, I'm not very good judge.

One hint:
77 is an 80s band. Those albums have been unavailable on CD for a while, but are now available.

HOW DID I NOT GET S3

ps mine is 95 i guess

These things are like magic eye puzzles for me. I can't figure them out at all, but as soon as one's guessed, I'm like Oh yeah!

Okay, so apparently I can't actually stop making these.

I'll bet people who are good at this are also good at the game Set.

xpost: Gots to be Magnetic Fields

Yes!

96. http://i33.tinypic.com/w87zph.png

er, 97

98

http://i36.tinypic.com/2up8w8i.jpg

#4 in that one gave me two topless women.

99. http://i36.tinypic.com/qskqs9.png

Yeah, sorry, it was from Hurting's Fugazi q, number 27. But it made me think of this Polvo album:

Aha! That's exactly the album I was thinking of when I said that image reminded me of something else. I had a feeling the band was on Merge and/or started with a P, but dumbly I looked up the Portastatic discography instead.

101. (sorry for the ghetto editing)

hint for 99: you should be able to get it from the first 4. #5 and #6 are the worst approximations.

These last few seem tantalisingly familiar, and yet...

A hint for #90: the now defunct band hailed from somewhere other than the UK or US, and looking again now, parts 7 and 9 are actually very close to the original covers.

Here's number 34 again ....

103. and to help everyone along, their similarly vibrant label-mates:

http://blackstrap.org/tmp/colors3.jpg

...tho' the labelmate's career continued past these.

102 is Can

Correct sir! I'm still amused by that "Monster Movie".

Hint for 96: #2 is the closest one. The artist has made records under different names which I didn't include.
