I feel like Gallagher:Gallagher 2::Marshall Mathers:Mac Miller

a head-tailed cat (GOTT PUNCH II HAWKWINDZ), Monday, 24 June 2013 11:04 (twelve years ago)

He kind of looks like Peter Serafinowicz.

Walter Galt, Monday, 24 June 2013 11:17 (twelve years ago)

its very "take care"

Who am I kidding--mostly I'm just posting this cause its called "Drillary Clinton."

The Butthurt Locker (cryptosicko), Thursday, 27 June 2013 01:00 (twelve years ago)

Drillary Clinton is a great name

Shock G Mo Collier (Spottie_Ottie_Dope), Friday, 28 June 2013 04:50 (twelve years ago)

That strikes me as pretty much the same as calling yourselves "NEWSY WEWSIES" and your album "BIG BOTTOM BIRDS".

totally belongs on this thread:

Horrible 70s album titles like I've Got My Own Album To Do

all tiny creatures - dark clock

Ricarda Cometa - s/t

Filk Hollins (NickB), Wednesday, 3 July 2013 19:32 (twelve years ago)

It's straaaaaight Yankee Hotel Foxtrot. Beigey background, famed 60s/early 70s architectural icon... oof.

Doctor Casino, Wednesday, 3 July 2013 23:30 (twelve years ago)

what building is that on the nowherians?

anonanon, Wednesday, 3 July 2013 23:36 (twelve years ago)

Is that a Speeding Train drawing, MN? And Nowherians is you, right?

emil.y, Wednesday, 3 July 2013 23:55 (twelve years ago)

Nakagin Capsule Tower, Tokyo. Great and perpetually endangered, and pretty much the fullest built manifestation of Metabolist architecture.

Doctor Casino, Wednesday, 3 July 2013 23:56 (twelve years ago)

thx, Doc

anonanon, Thursday, 4 July 2013 00:00 (twelve years ago)

ARU, OPN and ricarda comet are ace (learned from circa1916 in the OPN thread that the new album cover is a still from this fucking incredible short film). otherwise:

idg half 9/10ths of what's in this thread.

Me and my pool noodle (contenderizer), Thursday, 4 July 2013 00:03 (twelve years ago)

XP - Hey Emily, yep well spotted Chris is the man. And yes, Nowherians is me.

The EP is sort-of based around the Nakagin Capsule Tower, - as much as instrumental music can be based around anything - I've been obsessing over that building ever since reading a book on Tokyo architecture. Gonna see it for reals next year.

MaresNest, Thursday, 4 July 2013 19:06 (twelve years ago)

okay, jf, what the hell is that "ARU" album??? i imagine that's the band name, but have had no luck tracking them down. dying to know more...

Ⓓⓡ. (Johnny Fever), Thursday, 4 July 2013 20:10 (twelve years ago)

Oh, MaresNest, that sounds really cool! Hope I didn't seem dismissive above, I think it's cool, particularly with the rendering of the wear-and-tear, nice contrast to the idealized way it's usually represented.

Doctor Casino, Thursday, 4 July 2013 20:12 (twelve years ago)

Not at all Dr C :) I know it looks a bit like YHF, that's cool.

MaresNest, Thursday, 4 July 2013 20:30 (twelve years ago)

thanks johnny. i found it, too, right after that last post. figured it'd be soothing new age psych, but instead it seems to be vaguely disturbing electronic noise. p cool though.

Me and my pool noodle (contenderizer), Thursday, 4 July 2013 20:56 (twelve years ago)

Yeah, its advertised release date has come and gone, but it's still listed as a pre-order. I don't know what the deal is, but the one streamable track is kinda cool.

Ⓓⓡ. (Johnny Fever), Thursday, 4 July 2013 20:57 (twelve years ago)

New Daughn Gibson has someone's bare bottom on the cover so I'll just post the link, but it is an intriguing picture:

^ new Dave Matthews Band cover, and if Robert Crumb isn't getting paid off for that, that is a huge scandal.

Ralph Vogon Williams (NickB), Monday, 8 July 2013 17:15 (twelve years ago)

Original Crumb cartoon (also NSFW - contains dongage):

That DMB cover is from sometime last year.

i like this.

mark e, Monday, 8 July 2013 17:22 (twelve years ago)

^^ though it does have a polyphonic spree vs slipknot look about it ..

mark e, Monday, 8 July 2013 17:23 (twelve years ago)

That DMB cover is from sometime last year.

Oh it is, isn't it? My mistake. It's only getting a UK release this week, such was the rabid demand for DMB over here (I've still never heard him btw).

Ralph Vogon Williams (NickB), Monday, 8 July 2013 17:25 (twelve years ago)

Nah, its okay, I just remembered stumbling on it last summer and having similar thoughts about the Crumb-iness of the cover.

JACK SQUAT about these Charlie Nobodies (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Monday, 8 July 2013 17:28 (twelve years ago)

I remember seeing commercials for it on tv, and the figures were moving around inside the compartments.

Ⓓⓡ. (Johnny Fever), Monday, 8 July 2013 17:29 (twelve years ago)

To some fly DMB jam, no doubt.

Ⓓⓡ. (Johnny Fever), Monday, 8 July 2013 17:29 (twelve years ago)

I envy NickB.

First off, HELL YES! A new Ebony Bones record. But secondly, this art is so great.

Ⓓⓡ. (Johnny Fever), Wednesday, 10 July 2013 06:06 (twelve years ago)

must use all of the photoshops

wombspace (abanana), Wednesday, 10 July 2013 06:18 (twelve years ago)

A bit much going on there, but I'm game for a David Černý homage.

Ah, that concept seemed slightly familiar.

Ⓓⓡ. (Johnny Fever), Wednesday, 10 July 2013 06:30 (twelve years ago)

I like the moby, FotL *and* Ebony Bones covers.
