V/A - You've Got Your Orders - volume 1

Year:

Label: Chrome Peeler

The story behind this compilation is thus: a guy named Jason Ziemniak has the idea to write titles for as-yet-unwritten songs, he then contacts the folks who make up the basis of his record collection, sends them that title and requests that they write a song based on that title.

The results are a mixed bag of drone, noise, folk, rock, metal, punk...just sort of "whatever". It's an interesting concept to say the least, and there was a Volume 2, but I never got it.
