Good guess but No. It could be NWW I grant you, but this is a different group who famously used photomontage in the artwork.

ryaneno - November 8, 2009 05:27 PM (GMT)
10. Crass -Stations Of The Crass

The photomontage clue...

How many album covers feature lobsters, I wonder?

For the last one, it's best to think about what's behind the horse and carriage.

GraemeLovesPinkLady - November 12, 2009 06:34 AM (GMT)
The cover of the OST to "Ebirah, Horror of the Deep" features a lobster, and a radioactive one at that. I looked for a photo of it, but it's a 44 year old film, so no luck I'm afraid.

I did find a picture of Ebirah though, so you'll be able to imagine it.

I think the fact that no one on this board recognized The Doobie Brothers speaks well of this board. Ace quiz, Fritts! B)
