^that would be a much better cover
― mizzell, Saturday, 12 March 2011 17:50 (thirteen years ago) link
i agree. apart from the debut the junior boys are not good at covers.
― jed_, Saturday, 12 March 2011 17:58 (thirteen years ago) link
junior boys do not make the kind of music that begs to have a construction worker on the cover

I love when Columbia releases bring back the little label insignia thing on the front cover art retro-style. Also, good composition on this one in general.

I like that cover. So are The Vaccines actually any good or just another shit NME hype band?

I think they're great, except for their "hey lookit us!" single, "Post Break-Up Sex" (which is deplorable. The rest of the album is super.

Official promo pics of Turisas you seen in local music mags are often pretty funny too... Still, gotta give props for them for presenting the sole woman as a fierce Viking warrior too, and not as a leather babe, which seems to be more common with metal bands with one female member.

what, you expected a death cab album cover to be interesting?
― ilxor you've listened to one odd future album once (ilxor), Monday, 14 March 2011 21:14 (thirteen years ago) link
Ben Gibbard and Nick Harmer have both been quoted as saying that the album will be "a much less guitar-centric album than we’ve ever made before," and likened the record to Another Green World by Brian Eno.
I actually like a couple DCFC albums, but, c'mon, lol.

Are those supposed to be album cover pastiches? I know the
― Tuomas, Tuesday, 15 March 2011 13:36 (thirteen years ago) link
I know the middle one is Velvet Underground, but I don't recognize the others.
Does the one in the middle of the botton row refer to "Hand on the Torch" by US3?
― Tuomas, Tuesday, 15 March 2011 13:39 (thirteen years ago) link
middle bottom row is Eliot Smith; top left is Built to Spill, bottom right maybe Pearl Jam? I feel like Arcade Fire does the swirly stuff on the top right album but don't really know their work.
