Some people just don't understand sarramkrop's sense of "humor".

noisereductions · 02.13.2009, 09:22 AM

that's probably what it is. But also I think he doesn't like me a little.

02.13.2009, 09:26 AM

You're right, I don't.

greedrex · 02.13.2009, 09:30 AM

CLASSIC Porky.
GO!

Me and him haven't had any epic arguments in a good 6 months now. Sigh.

I Fucking Love Tis Cover Art

Magic Wheel Memory · 02.13.2009, 10:35 AM

Yeah, I love this cover, too! I hate the hyphenated name, and the font could be better, but I think I'll manage to pull through and get over it.

Rob Instigator · 02.13.2009, 10:49 AM

what, John Fahey painted it? I HATE IT NOW!!!!

fluxequalsrad · 02.13.2009, 11:22 AM

I usually really like Sonic Youth covers despite them not being particularly eye catching at first glance... But this cover is god awful, the band name and the album title look so awkward . ..

nancykitten · 02.13.2009, 12:29 PM

Yes, the cover seems like an afterthought. It looks like a total Mark E. Smith "yeah, that one, whatever" moment. I do love the Fall though.

I really don't mind the painting though -- it's the black stripes and the cheapo font that make it look like an ugly bootleg.

I wanna join sonic youth. I'll play Kim's thigh-slappers....

krastian · 02.13.2009, 03:33 PM

I hope the music is as out there as the painting!! It won't be hard to one up RR in that that department.

It seems like the band is really fucking proud of it, so that's def. a good sign. I'm pretty pumped.

I actually love the sleeve - including the black bits and the font. The hyphen is pretty cool too.

I wonder what the LP will sound like from the back catalogue? I'm reckoning a mixture of Murray Street and Sonic Nurse. I'm hoping for an NYC Ghosts/Washing Machine vibe.

the ikara cult · 02.13.2009, 07:26 PM

The picture itself is ok though it looks like the mother of all Zit Volcanoes. As for the inexplicable widescreen effect, its just silly
Someone should make a poll for the best/worst SY artwork...

pantophobia · 02.13.2009, 08:59 PM

since a larger version was asked for, it has finally arrived

are they like in Coco's room or something? like Thurston goes "i totally think Coco's room is totally evocative of the sound of this album like the Wipers references i keep making!!"

jennthebenn · 02.13.2009, 09:05 PM

I'm sure he also used the word "extrapolate" in there too, no?

02.13.2009, 09:11 PM

They look like they're listening to donk remixes on their phones.
