thread is always full of bafflement. only "noteworthy" covers good or bad in the last few days are the slava and the zammuto, and the latter's no great shakes...

overall this is a p bad year for album art!

But probably a good year for purposefully bad album art.

the aesthetic is called "sea punk"

Basically another branding of nostalgia. It's funny cos i read mentions of Seapunk somewhere but only just now realized when i was a kid in the late 80s/early 90s i went through a phase with my brothers were our clothes were like really neon colors and tropical themed and completely stupid. I didn't get the reference cos I just never thought that style was worth digging up. How wrong i was.
Sounds more or less like the 2012 equiv to the 2008 hipster jackass that wears headbands everywhere.

i wouldn't call the pictureplane cover seapunk, to me it seems pretty standard '11 net art style whereas seapunk is mostly met with eye rolls even within the net art community

No, i thought that was gross, cos it only changed colors after you sweated all over it.

The Ufomammut looks like a CD to me, but I'd be very impressed if it was vinyl.

That's the remix version of Gloss Drop btw. The phrase that springs to my mind looking at that is 'you can't polish a turd'.

I'm not asking for Bonnie Raitt's cover to be literal or anything, but what does "Slipstream" have to do with her walking up an industrial staircase?
― Johnny Fever, Monday, 16 April 2012 11:59 (1 year ago) Permalink
I like that we are going for "noteworthy" rather than good or bad, because in most cases it's obvious. But for some of the ones Bee OK posted upthread I have no idea if they liked them or not.
