Subject: ALBUM TITLE!!

Hello friends. A Shortcut To Newark is having trouble coming up with an album title for it's debut record. Perhaps one of you out there can end our troubles by coming up with a mo'focking killer one! Post suggestions here.
Free Merch and drugs will be split amongst top 3 entries-strictly 2 per person (that's suggestions not crank rocks!)!
I suggested "You can take the girl out the 'Grove..." but they just laughed.
Much love.

Album title? Gotta be "GrillBlaster", or perhaps precede the band name with "DJ Rapid Fire Presents..."

'Laura and George are cool.'

'i worked at the hog's shed'

'i love bins'

'that'll be £4.20 please'

'i got aids from the dolphin centre'

'i ran into the 144 bus'

'hide your crack supply in the sofa'

'lets rock the croft'

'double up for £1.25 extra'

'my highlighter is pink.

'lets all wear pea green.'
........ok maybe not

I like the one about gentlemans brogues and the turnofftheon or whatever.

My current suggestion is "My Homework, Your Handwriting." Facilitates themed cover design pretty easily too (school, not Back to the Future).

Dave is down for it, not sure about the other guys yet though.

I'm diggin' it Crease. We'll have to organize the shoot for the weekend, me and Carl were gettin' down at Donnington yesterday.
Is the 7-inch artwork finished? I'll have to have a ganders at the progress.

YO CREESE! NOT A BAD TITLE, THOUGH I THINK THE SCHOOL THEME MAY STIR UP MEMORIES OF BUSTED`S DEBUT SINGLE/VIDEO "WHAT I GO TO SCHOOL FOR", A SORT OF JUNIOR/TEENAGE REBELLION TYPE BAG WHICH I`D RATHER DISTANCE MYSELF FROM, A BACK TO FUTURE INFLUENCED TITLE WOULD BE "OFF THE HEEZEY" BUT WITH McFLY ALSO OUT NOW DOIN` THE BUSTED TEENAGE THING THAT MAY ALSO BE A BIT OF A "BALL-ACHE".
MY MONEY IS STILL ON "NO EASY WAY OUT; NO SHORTCUT HOME" BUT AT THE SAME TIME IF THERE IS "NO SHORTCUT HOME" THERE PROBABLY ISN`T A "SHORTCUT TO NEWARK" EITHER, GET MY MEANING?
ANOTHER FAVORITE OF MINE IS THE RATHER OBVIOUS "THE KICK" WHICH WOULD BE COOL WITH A "SHORTCUT TO NEWARK HANGING OUT AT NIGHT" SORT OF FRONT COVER. A SELF TITLED DEBUT ALBUM WOULD ALSO BE GOOD, BUT AT THE THE SAME TIME A COP-OUT, WE COULD HAVE A SPIN ON METALLICA`S/ JAY Z`S "THE BLACK ALBUM" WE COULD NAME OUR`S "THE WACK ALBUM".
InABiT.

Just got in from a 13hr night shift so appologies if this seems fragmented.

I am noticing a considerable number of suggestions relate to the night time in some way. Title suggestions, photoshoot suggestions - it is all about that mysterious and exciting period between evening and dawn. I guess "IN THE NIGHT" is the biggest rock cliche so it mightn't be a bad idea to play on it.

Things to do with offs and ons remind me too much of Mission of Burma or Promise Ring.

Point taken about the Busted school thing. Also Franz Ferdinand's matinee video. Title still may run though.

The Fall Apart cover is coming along but not finished. I'm waiting for a deadline from Dave/ Aston. The artwork is based, appropriately, around the idea of repair. I think you'll like it - Dave just said there wasn't really time to consult everybody so just left me to get on with it, so I kinda went off in my own direction.

If the weather is bright, dry and (hopefully) with some good shadow then photos will probably be on for sunday. I'm using slow film so no night shots this time unless you want them to look like Portishead on acid.

"The Something Bomb"?
"Truncated"? (meaning to cut short, a la John Wayne Bobbitt)

YO! Yeah dude that Back To The Future reference is a cool title, "THE FLUX CAPASSITOR" (if that`s how you spell it) would also be cool, but it`s probably mad copy-written or sumthin`!
"NIGHT MACHINE" "INTO THE NIGHT" "SCREAMING THROUGH THE NIGHT" "NIGHT GAMES" "NIGHT GIRLS" are all classic cock rock stylee titles!
Should be cool for a photo shoot between 12 and 1 on Sunday as i`m goin out around 2ish,
INabITch.

That's an Usher song though, he might think we're tryin' to bite his style, especially with us rockin' the A-Town stomp in the dance routine on our new video.
Ooohhh yeah you make me wanna...

How about the classic Neil Blender quote from 1989: "Gearing Up for Getting Down."

Wouldn't "Straight Outta Bromsgrove" do fine?
