badass

alpine static, Thursday, 25 May 2017 20:02 (nine years ago)

alpine static, Thursday, 25 May 2017 20:02 (nine years ago)

yeah, that's really good.

“Yeah. Huh, thanks.” (los blue jeans), Friday, 26 May 2017 04:47 (nine years ago)

the Pharmakon cover is so cool, easily my favorite so far this year

flappy bird, Friday, 2 June 2017 18:20 (nine years ago)

Pharmakon showed up in my discover weekly spotify thing a couple of weeks ago. Was a bit of a shock to have that unexpectedly show up on my phone's lock screen.

Very good album, btw.

Οὖτις, Friday, 2 June 2017 22:31 (nine years ago)

Yeah, Pharmakon wins. Awesome album to boot.

pomenitul, Friday, 2 June 2017 22:35 (nine years ago)

Lol @ The Fucking Arcana. Have to hand it to you, "martyfalling", you've got endurance. Till the fp's rack up to 51 that is. I'm assuming that won't be too long from now, so make the most of it here. Tomorrow. Or yesterday.

Marty, this thread isn't "covers of noteworthy albums"

I miss the days when bands put out cheesy cartoonish album covers.

Are there two of these threads? Weird.

Noteworthy Album Covers of 2017

The Man Who Saw The Midwife (GOTT PUNCH II HAWKWINDZ), Sunday, 20 August 2017 11:27 (eight years ago)

Yeah there's two. My req to close one at the start of the year went unnoticed. Picked this one because it's got way more, idk.

Le Bateau Ivre, Sunday, 20 August 2017 12:02 (eight years ago)

the Brand New cover is great, of course. but i'm curious: did they photoshop the girl in red? is it a found photo of a very dumb jump? did they stage a stunt? anyone know?

alpine static, Sunday, 20 August 2017 15:34 (eight years ago)

I've seen that photo used elsewhere, but upside down, not sure where.

Mince Pramthwart (James Morrison), Sunday, 20 August 2017 23:54 (eight years ago)

Photographer is Thobias Fäldt but that still doesn't tell us whether it's staged or not (first comment on this page is about her hair being too nice for a jump like that, but who knows, maybe she's actually jumping UP to the window and not the opposite). Came across this piece of work while searching for info.

Dinsdale, Monday, 21 August 2017 06:26 (eight years ago)

Lol, seems legit.
