I dotn think that the artists get to pick their album art over at island, I mean look at thrice and FOB, both have similar art, the eye thing ad the whole like print press, carved style.. I think its shitty, I liked thrice doingthe whole photography/building thing.. whats up with that shit

I don't think they look at all the same. Big deal if they both have an eye, there isn't even an eye on the FOB cover.

But look at the actual album cover, there is no eye on it.

I'm thinking it's just a coincidence...look at all the other albums Island has released...so what if two albums (even though the FOB w/ the eye is just the dustsleeve...it's not even the real cover...this http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B000929AU0.01.MZZZZZZZ.jpg is the real cover) look VAGUELY similar?

DAVID EGGERS

did the art.

It's amazing.

10 times fall out boy's

They get to choose I think.

If not, who cares? At least Island doesn't pressure bands as much as other labels. Or they know how to keep bands quiet. ;)

now if you had asked if the smashing pumpkins and lenny kravitz had released similar album covers I think we all would say, "hell ya"

Drew Beringer

Yeah, Kyle, I'm not trying to be a dick, I like your shirt designs and all, I just don't see the comparision other than that they both have some gold writing.

it's the exact same color actually I think...

maybe Kyle could clear that up.

That's all i saw, the color similarities, which could be Island? who cares?

They don't look ANYTHING alike. Thrice had their friend Dave Eggers do the artwork. Island didn't choose the album art.
