Androol 01.22.2007 10:08 AM

no exclusively sy!

guitarpro 01.22.2007 10:27 AM

I thought the Washing Machine cover was pretty cool

Androol 01.22.2007 10:41 AM

but relatively speaking?

badgercorn 01.22.2007 02:29 PM

I'm not that fond of the Rather Ripped artwork to be honest.

Grodey 01.22.2007 02:31 PM

Yeah when I saw that I was saying "huh?"
In Australia the album came out early, but I still thought it was coming out on the thirteenth. I was in the store a week before, and the appearance of it took my surprise. I bought it immediately and wondered if my copy was some kind of bootleg, honestly.

ATL seems rather cohesive as far as tone of artwork matches content of album. Plus, the CD is pink, with words crossed out. French, nonetheless.

Rather Ripped for sure is least attractive.

hm, im not really following you

HECKLER SPRAY 01.27.2007 08:44 AM

Experimental Jet Set... No originality. I don't really like this album, except few songs..

fishmonkey 01.27.2007 08:51 AM

i think Rather Ripped is pretty shitty.

Agree. And the title sucks too. It doesn't work with the content.

A Thousand Threads 01.27.2007 09:45 AM

Are you guys talking about the Rather Ripped CD Cover or Lp cover?

I think the Lp version looks cool,
the Cd cover is shit, though

HECKLER SPRAY 01.27.2007 09:49 AM

I was talking about the Cd cover. Agree with you, the LP cover is not so bad.

Yeah, way too bland for me personally.

The A Thousand Leaves cover is something I don't get.

PAULYBEE2656 01.27.2007 12:45 PM

experimental cover. they should have used the one with the horse as the main one

i always liked the backcover though.

Yeah, me too, the backcover is not so bad. For for the interchanging cover, it always was difficult for me find which was my favourite. Maybe Lee's cover.

sun city girl 01.28.2007 10:20 AM

i've always used the green one. but all in all, i like the cover, too bad about the music inside...

atsonicpark 01.28.2007 10:26 AM

Honestly, besides goo and daydream nation, their album covers all kinda suck..

mindbomb 01.28.2007 02:42 PM

I think the Washine Machine cover is a weak cover. And Murray Street's is awesome. And if you want to listen to an amazing band with great artwork try Elevator....elevator.ca

I love that cover.

I'll go for RR shitty record with a shitty artwork (sorry sy)

satirejohn 01.28.2007 04:43 PM

their artwork is generally very good I think!

my least favourite is probably Experimental Jet Set... which is also my least favourite album.

Human Fly 01.28.2007 05:07 PM

Murray Street, NYC Ghosts..., ATL, Rather Ripped. None of those really work cover-wise. I seem to be on my own in quite like Exp. Jet Set's cover.

atsonicpark 05.08.2007 02:37 AM

all.

none of their album covers are that great, folks...

atsonicpark 05.08.2007 02:38 AM

haha i just realized i'd already replied to this long long ago.

but it still stands. their album covers blow!

pbradley 05.08.2007 02:46 AM

A Thousand Leaves is made lame by the cheesy cut-out shit. Also I don't like the little girl. What's with little girls on covers? Murray Street, Siamese Dream, Green Mind... freakin pedophiles I swear :p

NYC Ghost & Flowers and Rather Ripped are bland

bah, Murray Street and Bad Moon Rising are great

Androol 05.08.2007 05:08 AM

i know you were kidding but still whatthe fuck those are their kids on murray street. i suggest an edit :)

and for the record they have never made a bad album are someof you kidding? sure some arent as good as others but all of them are good. youre missing something if you dont think so.

and the same goes for anyone who doesnt think theyve hada good cover. very very sad for people who dont see the beauty in some of those.

king_buzzo 05.08.2007 05:09 AM

EP. Never really liked it...

king_buzzo 05.08.2007 05:09 AM

The cover, that is.

Androol 05.08.2007 05:10 AM

but its got richard edson on it and kim in glasses!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:P

king_buzzo 05.08.2007 05:11 AM

Yeah but I don't like the blue/gray picture combination
