Album Artwork

suggestions for albums that are worth buying because of the artwork

[mulcahy67]

Nine Inch Nails booklets are usually pretty fucking cool.

[oddwithoutend]

Anything from Devendra Banhart. Especially his latest, What Will We Be, where the artwork supersedes the music.

[xJesusFreakx]

I bought this album because of the artwork. It's not something I'd normally listen to, but it was a great purchase for sure.

I bought this album because of the artwork (and to be fair, the description on the package), and it is now my fourth favourite album of the year:

Dang, that album artwork I posted was far too artsy and obscure. I need to get back to basics.

I don't think anyone likes pictures of women more than Tim.

[xJesusFreakx]

You like that I like them, though. Don't kid yourself. You're just too concerned with cred to post them yourself. Conveniently enough, I have no shame.

[oddwithoutend]

Oh, the pictures are great. It's the music that keeps me away. haha

To be perfectly honest, that artwork doesn't instill within me any yearning to hear that band's music. :shrug:

[oddwithoutend]

Approved. I hate that you found that before me.
haha Such a great album. I can seriously just put it on repeat and listen several times in a row. Manages to be pleasant and accessible while seperating itself from most other bands I listen to.

Me and a buddy bought Bright Eyes- Cassadaga because of the artwork. There's a bunch of crazy designs inside that you have to unscramble. The music's pretty decent too.

I'm just going to be THAT person and say I'm Wide Awake is still better...

Crazy designs sound cool though, is it like a puzzle?

Cassadaga is my favourite Bright Eyes release.

Post a song by The Books that's better than this. I dare you. I bet you won't. You know why? You can't.

Last time I heard this song, I was at my Junior/Senior Banquet my Senior year. (I went to a Christian school, and they wouldn't use the word "prom" because it implies you're gonna get laid afterwards. Yeah, 'cause the kids who wanted to get laid would let that stop them. Anyways...) I was dancing with my ex at the time. A few days later, we started dating again. Then broke up again. We snuck one more relationship in there before being done for good. Third's a charm, right? Uh, no.

No it's a bunch of scrambled lines that when you form pictures when you put the special magnifying glass up to it. And you're wrong, Cassadaga is the best.

I manage to avoid the radio with great success. I at least don't recognise the title; that's all that really matters.

Sorry, man, but Kelly's winning this pretty hard right now. ;-)

I like prom.

I actually miss my prom/"banquet" a lot more that I thought I would. Since it was a Christian school, I got to dance to "Jesus Freak." I moshed to the song and did a really lame but really fun back-to-back kick-to-the-air hardcore dance move with a kid who was one of my best friends and is too busy with his deathcore band and trying to be cool these days. Those were such good days.

Look what you did! I'm all nostalgic now.

My favorite is actually In Rainbows. Maybe not the best, but I enjoy it the most.

haha Sweet. I miss the girl I took to prom. We had a texting conversation the other night. It went like this:

Ha, I hate awkward conversations like that. They make me wish time had a backspace key. Sorry, man, good luck with that.

Thankfully, I've managed to regain my friendship to at least some small extent (Facebook) with my ex. I hate having people I have to avoid if I run into them at the mall or something. I tend to be easy to get along w/, lol.

Ha prom. That's where my profile picture is from!

It's even worse when you've just had a one-night stand with a girl, and you see her like a year later with her friends, and you're doing something really un-cool like dropping your books in the hallway or ordering a coffee.

Thank you :]

Oh it's a very very very long and terrible story haha. Two guys were interested in me at the time, and one of them was my best friend. I went with the other guy. Long story short, that was the wrong choice. Long long story short, both would have been the wrong choice.

Oh my, that's no fun. See, stuff like this always bothers me. I have a lot of friends who are girls, and I sometimes end up developing crushes on them but not acting on them because I don't want to compromise our friendship. Sucks, but I tend to eventually realize that it was for the best anyways. Thankfully, I kind of hate "dating" anyways. :P

When did ordering a coffee become un-cool? More importantly, when did un-cool become hyphenated?

Kelly Clarkson > The Books.

Kelly Clarkson has a fantastic voice. I like a lot of the songs on her new record actually, very catchy and vocally impressive.

If I never listened to Jimmy Eat World, I would probably want to check them out because of the album artwork for Futures. I think it's my favorite album artwork.

Agreed. (I wasn't being ironic, if anyone thought that. I love a good pop song, and Kelly has a great voice. I prefer Breakaway, but All I Ever Wanted was pretty solid for the most part.)

Haven't listened to their other releases nearly enough, but I really wish they'd get back together. Most of the current projects are lame in comparison.

Jaguar Love is a fucking embarrassment but Jordan's band Past Lives are very, very good. My favorite Blood Brothers album is March On Electric Children. It really gets overlooked in my opinion.

Depends on where you bought it from online. If the quality of the mp3s is 192kbps or lower, then I would rebuy a physical copy.

it has lyrics for songs that have never been released too
have you seen the cover of the album when it was going to be named Bleedthrough ?

I have not. I didn't even know that it was going to be called that...Would you happen to have an image handy?

Oh, I've seen that before on Wiki. I just never bothered to read it.

I still need to get the album but everything I've heard from him so far is amazing

Huh, I'm not sure what I was expecting, but that wasn't it. I'm not sure if I like them or not; I'll have to check that album out some other time and see if it clicks for me or not. Thank you for posting the video.

No worries. It's a good album, not the most amazing one you'll ever hear... but a good, solid debut. A lot of heart. Really good guys too, they're in it for all the right reasons... friends of mine have toured with them over here.

The rest of the art? Bro, I downloaded that record. I think that cover is pretty interesting, too. Bold, colorful- not unlike the music.

Deja Entendu has my favorite album art ever. I love the drawings of the astronaut. Also, I love the photograph inside Thursday's Common Existence, the one on this shirt:

Some of these album covers made me stop and look for awhile. I'll have to go listen.

I've never liked the cover art for Deja Entendu. That Thursday picture was pretty sweet, though. I should get that shirt.

Muse - The Resistance is one of my favourites this year as well as Chevelle - Sci-Fi Crimes

I was shocked to see you mention Chevelle and looked the artwork up. Not horrible, but I don't like the composition.

[oddwithoutend]

ha Adam remember how pumped I was when you were convincing me to buy that Timber Timbre album? haha

[ColdNovember]

It is kind of dull in that sense, but so intriguing. Thought it might deserve a good mention.

[ColdNovember]

Haha yeah man totally - did it finally strike something for you?

[xJesusFreakx]

I guess it's worth mentioning when compared to the rest of the thread. :-d

another draw back of downloading, le sigh

I find it to be kinda boring personally

[ColdNovember]

Haha yeah i particularly liked the grey one that looked like a fetus lighting a tree on fire in the middle of a desert.

[oddwithoutend]

Haha yeah man totally - did it finally strike something for you?
Yeah, man! We were so disappointed at its lack of "full-bandness", but after a couple listens I started really liking it, and now it's worked up to being my second favourite release of the year. ha It's crazy.

I knew it would grow on you. There were many good tracks, but the full album seemed stuck in one tempo.

I always thought the elephant was extinguishing the fire.

Nah he's a good elephant. He's blowing on the fire to keep it going.

Right good elephants commit arson.

Yeah its best qualities are quite subtle, but it still managed to be intriguing enough to keep me listening. The opener is slowly becoming my favourite song of the year.

[ColdNovember]

Wow just climbing the latter eh? Cool man, glad it wasn't a waste of money haha. I'll have to check this one out again.

[oddwithoutend]

haha Yeah man, it's pretty swell. You'd like it.

[ColdNovember]

haha Yeah man, it's pretty swell. You'd like it.

I'm not sure what it is, but there's something about it that I really like. Maybe it's because I can't draw.

Yeah, I'd rebuy it.
