Correct!

I tried another one earlier, using Bing. Again felt like the matches are just *too* good. But I'll post it...

(One of these is a The Weeknd cover, but standing in for something else.)

Is it The Feelies?

Silver Jews?

I hear the Purple Mountains album was almost called "How Do You Ilumi?"

Weezer?

Silver Jews (+Purple Mountains) is correct!

Switched to https://www.shutterstock.com image search, for more pleasingly 'random' results. This artist might have been done in 2008. I can't quite tell. Easy?

113 - Sault?

Yes :)

XP: I'm sure there are a multitude of more elegant ways but I've just cut and pasted bits and pieces in MS Paint myself.

Oh man, I wonder how the images in the 'album covers rendered in MS Paint from memory' thread have held up over the long years.

Not entirely well, it seems.

BUT, it turns out I loved these threads so much (even if people blatantly started ignoring the "from memory" bit) that I saved the first two threads, images and all! And in the same folder, it appears I also saved the "Photoshop/MS Paint Nike and other evil corporations ruining famous album covers". Wonder if there is a sensible way of sharing here on board, if there is interest?

I totally ignored the 'from memory' bit, ashamed to say.

No idea how hard this is. A few pics are ridiculously OTM thematically, as well as chromatically.

Jim O'Rourke?

^ I can totally see how that could work! But no.

Incidentally, the 5th item is not a 'proper' LP, but some issues were vaguely LP-length.

Dinosaur Jr?
