Close, but no cigar

True to the challenge Jon had set me in work a few weeks back, I have been working on my album square. The task at hand is to gather nine of your favourite albums, get images of their front covers and arrange them in a 3x3 square collage.

In this post I shall list the unlucky losers which have not made my final nine. However, they are all brilliant albums despite not being included. Sadly by process of elimination, by reasoning of my own, they did not make the grade. I shall post my top nine in the completed image square shortly, but for now enjoy the list of those which just lacked that little bit.

1st Round of Elimination (7 eliminated)

• Less Than Jake - Hello Rockview
• Ben Folds - Rockin' The Suburbs
• American Head Charge - The War of Art
• System of a Down - Toxicity
• Hundred Reasons - Ideas Above Our Station
• The Strokes - First Impressions of Earth
• NOFX - The War On Errorism

2nd and Final Round of Elimination (6 eliminated)

• Unwritten Law - Elva
• Danko Jones - Born a Lion
