I've seen this a couple places (but not NSG), and I've always thought it's pretty damn cool. It almost always works out.
1 - Go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random
The first random Wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.
2 - Go to Random quotations: http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3
The last four words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album.
If you want to do this again, you'll hit refresh to generate new quotes, because clicking the quotes link again will just give you the same quotes over and over again.
3 - Go to flickr's "explore the last seven days" http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days/
Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.
Put it all together, that's your debut album.

Yeah, so I turned it on its side for a better album resolution, and put a wee border on it, but that's my first :D

Band name: Discman (Not bad)
Album name: Think of them as impossible (I know five words but it makes more sense and a good name for an album than just the four)
Album Cover:

It's Byzantine, so nearly one thousand years old, so it must be cool!

I like this one better because it isn't named after a pop singer.

Okay, this is our band. It's the debut album of a German techno band.
