^ almost as ugly as his last album. very brown, very drake take care

still waiting for his chicken leg order to arrive

Jaap and roids (NickB), Wednesday, 30 January 2013 17:32 (thirteen years ago)

That has to be intentional.

emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Wednesday, 30 January 2013 19:17 (thirteen years ago)

I love that.

Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 30 January 2013 19:19 (thirteen years ago)

Last two are solid enough that I'm close to Googling those bands.

Like the Clapton cover way better than his previous album.

Is that the one where he's giving the camera a sour look like you're getting too close to his Bentley?

Uncle Sam is... ...No Daddy! (GOTT PUNCH II HAWKWINDZ), Thursday, 31 January 2013 04:07 (thirteen years ago)

guy who did the FFAF artwork is a nice dude of my acquaintance, he has loads of stuff like that ('snowskull' on instagram iirc). can't say much for the actual band though

why they let the bodies hit the floor? (DJ Mencap), Thursday, 31 January 2013 08:43 (thirteen years ago)

I guess by Julie's 18th birthday she'd gotten the fuck away from him.

Tuomas, Thursday, 31 January 2013 09:28 (thirteen years ago)

oh good spot t-dawg!

Jaap and roids (NickB), Thursday, 31 January 2013 09:40 (thirteen years ago)

Even their names are almost the same! Did he change his last name from "Bult" to "Grant" once he got on parole?

Tuomas, Thursday, 31 January 2013 09:45 (thirteen years ago)

Haha yes, it's just perfect. He's come out saying he's a reformed character: given up the booze, quit the tobacco, got himself some book-learning - and yet all the same, he knows what you know and I know: the beast still lurks within.

Föllakzoid - II (great space rock album)

questino (seandalai), Thursday, 31 January 2013 18:23 (thirteen years ago)

Looks nice, but all the extra stuff on the cover kinda ruins the cool image. Why not have only the title there, and everything else on the back cover?

Tuomas, Friday, 1 February 2013 09:17 (thirteen years ago)

It's part of the label's house style. Works better on some covers than others.

Jaap and roids (NickB), Friday, 1 February 2013 09:28 (thirteen years ago)

Yeah, but I'm not sure I understand why and when Sacred Bones decides to break with the house style. They're breaking it a little for the new Men record, but that one up there seems like a much better design to allow a break.

Winston Smith’s cover image is hard to forget and hard to ignore- one of his best in years!

ima go (DJ Mencap), Wednesday, 6 February 2013 10:17 (thirteen years ago)

I don't think that Biafra has a chance of closing down Gitmo with that album cover.

I'm not a fan, but that's a NICE album cover.

tsrobodo, Sunday, 10 March 2013 15:03 (thirteen years ago)

^^ ok i am intrigued. i can google, but what is this? what's it sound like?

alpine static, Sunday, 10 March 2013 21:25 (thirteen years ago)

presumably sounds like the cult of dilla, c/d?

radric: the guccining (The Reverend), Monday, 11 March 2013 01:40 (thirteen years ago)

The Dilla cult is real but there's also a little bit of a Thomas theorem thing going on with all that. *skips over that mess*

I've liked pretty much everything I've heard from Darryl Reeves thus far (though not really familiar with the rest of the quartet), haven't come across any jazz oriented interpretations of Dilla (Besides the track Robert Glasper did last year). Thought I'd give it a go and it checks out. He has fun with it, none of it feels too derivative and at 26 minutes it doesn't come close to outstaying its welcome. Its refreshing and doesn't feel unnecessary or forced.
