Create an Eskimo Joe cover by Lost At E Minor
Our friends over at Imeem, the internet's fastest growing social networking site according to the latest Comcast figures, have an Eskimo Joe design contest running at the moment on their group page. It's all very simple: Listen to the album, which is streaming on the page, choose your favorite song, and create album art for it as if it was going to be produced as a single. They'll then pick the best design and turn it into a digital single at the iTunes Music Store. The contest runs until 8 November 2007.

Brown Wing Overdrive
Last month I saw Brown Wing Overdrive open for Black Pus (the solo project of Lightning Bolt's Brian Chippendale). The band—which formed in DC and relocated to NYC—uses electronics, found objects, banjos, duck calls, jaw harps and whatever else they can get their hands on to make jerky, syncopated, yelping noise. At times referencing shamanistic traditions, at others drawing from Kabuki, the band doesn't...

Sketchbook: Conceptual Drawings from the World's Most Influential Designers-Contest and Interview

U2: No Line On The Horizon Album Design
No matter how you feel about the epic band U2, their new album, "No Line On The Horizon," takes a stand, showcasing their position on music piracy with clever packaging and enticing purchases of the physical album instead of downloading the digital version. From drawing attention to environmental issues to problems people in Africa are facing, it's another example of how the band lets their...

Human Host
If a bunch of monkeys had a bunch of typewriters, they might come up with Shakespeare, but if they had drum machines, broken synths, out-of-tune guitars and old Casio keyboards, they might end up with something that sounds like Human Host. The Baltimore band channels the languid sneer of the Stooges, the absurdist spazz-outs of Men's Recovery Project, and the sproing-y dissonance of Nervous...
