Lol just saying "not noteworthy" because I see the CBB LP everywhere.. Just kind of an obvious rip I dunno lol

Ha, it appears the cover of the Streets album was taken at my alma mater.

that's uea, no? it's kinda as unspectacular a photo as you could take of the pyramids, if so.
― schlump, Monday, 10 January 2011 13:58 (thirteen years ago) link
Yeah, it's UEA. I actually quite like the cover, divorced of context.

that's not the panda bear cover by the way
― mizzell, Saturday, 15 January 2011 00:38 (thirteen years ago) link
I didn't think it was. It's just a cropped photo.
I think the real Panda Bear cover is a charcoal drawing or something iirc.

i like both of those covers. wouldn't want to hear the iron & wine music and have that ruin my enjoyment of the cover, though. the seefeel cover makes me think the album's going to be ~~~fucking HEAVY~~~ (looks like a metal cover!), would love for that to be true...

That GOF cover is horrid. Is the Iron & Wine one a crayon and scraped black paint job? If so, good effort.
