That looks like the "Before" of the first Masters of Reality cover.
No, it's not the VHF one
Do people not Google their band name ideas or is it just cool to not care now? Cool album cover though and I even kind of like the song, except the vocals.

Short answer? No.Long answer? I think we're about out of suitable names if the hundreds of horribly named bands I come across at work every day are any indication. I'd rather have two artists named Doldrums than even one named Stony Danza or Forever The Sickest Kids.
― Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 6 June 2012 06:31 (fourteen years ago)
i'll take unique over suitable any time. i'd rather someone call themselves shitfuck mcgillicuddy than be the 53rd band to call themselves spindrift
― lawrence and the machine (electricsound), Wednesday, 6 June 2012 06:40 (fourteen years ago)
I'd say the first band to call themselves Spindrift fucked up.
― The Reverend, Wednesday, 6 June 2012 06:45 (fourteen years ago)
probably
― lawrence and the machine (electricsound), Wednesday, 6 June 2012 06:50 (fourteen years ago)
Doldrums in this case is prolly an Ariel Pink ref no? but yeah it is bone idle and it's not like you even came up with a killer name or anything come on man

what's so notable about that waka album cover?
― wack nerd zinging in the dead of night (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 8 June 2012 21:41 (fourteen years ago)
Notably crap obviously.
― Spottie_Ottie_Dope, Friday, 8 June 2012 22:06 (fourteen years ago)
yeah but it's so generic either way i don't feel strongly about it
― wack nerd zinging in the dead of night (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 8 June 2012 22:11 (fourteen years ago)
True.
― Spottie_Ottie_Dope, Friday, 8 June 2012 22:12 (fourteen years ago)
though i guess just the basic work is pretty bad looking, looks kinda 90s and regional though, which is weird now cuz everyone seems to be a lot slicker at very least

Would never listen to a non-VHF Doldrums on pure principle. Hey look at me, I'm starting a band called Magnog. Ugh, these fucking kids.

Mrs Magician working from the same palette as Carter Tutti Void, Best Coast, etc. Funny when things 'trend' so obviously. Can't accept that this is any more a coincidence than the 'bands with animal and beach-related names' thing
― If Assholes Could Fly This Place Would Be An Airport, Saturday, 9 June 2012 19:03 (fourteen years ago)
At least this doesn't give me a headache like the CTV album art does.

Pretty sure you can trace it back to Merriweather Post Pavillion

what is Anywhere like? that cover intrigues me
― ♆ (gr8080), Saturday, 9 June 2012 21:39 (fourteen years ago)
that landing cover is great and even though theres no type on the cover it's still nicely composed
― wack nerd zinging in the dead of night (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Sunday, 10 June 2012 00:21 (fourteen years ago)

You can't see any of the landings on the Landing cover.
― InternationalWaters, Monday, 11 June 2012 18:43 (fourteen years ago)
ha, i was thinking the same thing but it seemed too corny to point out
― they loooovin the crut (The Reverend), Monday, 11 June 2012 20:45 (fourteen years ago)
That Landing cover is okay, but it pales in comparison to one of the great staircase-featuring album covers of our time:
