increasingly bothered by record covers that are all lol @ the aesthetic of a different era. You people are supposed to be busy creating the aesthetic of OUR era! Get back to work!

Pretty sure that's been posted before, but its awfulness remains undiminished.

M Gira's choice of album covers has always been pretty atrocious and this new one is no exception.

RAP GAME MARiSSA MARCHANT (gr8080), Wednesday, 5 September 2012 20:41 (eleven years ago) link

is that two door cinema club supposed to be ironically kitschy? sorry, i don't know the band, and it's hard to understand what they're going for without first knowing how hipster of a band we're dealing with.

phantompenguin, Wednesday, 5 September 2012 21:17 (eleven years ago) link

i think the light emanating from just beyond her kooch is all we need to make an informed decision here.

Porto for Pyros (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Wednesday, 5 September 2012 21:49 (eleven years ago) link

That is awesome. I do hate how the words go between the legs tho.

all I keep thinking re: Two Door Cinema Club is "Nightmare On Elm Street... with SEXY RESULTS"

DARING PRINCESS (DJP), Thursday, 6 September 2012 15:01 (eleven years ago) link

i really like the ultrasound cover concept, though not sure how well it's ever going to work in practice

relentlessly busting your smoo (electricsound), Thursday, 6 September 2012 23:29 (eleven years ago) link

seems like there's a lot of "look what i drew mommy! can we put it on the refridgerator?" covers this year

Jandek at the Disco (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Tuesday, 11 September 2012 18:28 (eleven years ago) link

That Cure one from a few years back still the best imo

Emperor Cos Dashit (Adam Bruneau), Tuesday, 11 September 2012 18:54 (eleven years ago) link
