Excellent! Does the back cover add anything to the narrative?

it appears to be a female hitch-hiker from the 80s

Interesting that Holbein chose to paint that on a square canvas, I think at that stage he was basically designing pomp rock record covers 400 years ahead of his time.

have to admit that the back of that umberto cover is a bit disappointing. glad it adds to the narrative, but it's a big step down design-wise.

i always feel vaguely sorry for iggy when i see him wearing a top. it doesn't seem like his natural state.

The Reverend, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 19:42 (1 year ago) Permalink

i always feel vaguely sorry for the world when iggy is not wearing a top.

mark e, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 19:45 (1 year ago) Permalink

guys don't fret that is iggy's arse on the semargl cover, all is well with the world

I appreciate Iggy's preservation more now that my wife works with leather goods.

Goodbye 20th Centipede (NickB), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 19:51 (1 year ago) Permalink

ha!

EZ Snappin, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 19:53 (1 year ago) Permalink

the limited record store 12" cover was bad enough (ooh, a pun on the title one drop), but seriously.

i realise the world will be gushing all over a new PiL album, but f*ck could they not have done something a little more worthy of eye balling than this shit.

truly dreadful.

mark e, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 21:09 (1 year ago) Permalink

yeah, that's next-level bullshit, expecially for PIL

Sinkane is the drummer for Yeasayer, I think. He was in Caribou's band for the Vibration Ensemble in December.

Sick Mouthy (Scik Mouthy), Tuesday, 22 May 2012 09:07 (1 year ago) Permalink

Love that Sinkane thing. I am ready to start collecting that format.

I like this Plankton Wat - Spirits cover on Thrill Jockey:

i don't know how you guys aren't sick of EVERY other album cover these days being black/white/gray or having a really pale, washed out color palette, it's become such an oppressive trend the last couple years
