bortx Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Is it me or is that artwork a bit on the rubbish side? I've enjoyed the previous artwork but something about this just doesn't seem quite right and I cant put my finger on it I would say it's just part of the whole artwork...

I've enjoyed the previous artwork but something about this just doesn't seem quite right and I cant put my finger on it Don't know why somebody downvoted you for that but like someone else said its just part of the full artwork. I'm pretty sure "Take My Bones Away" had single artwork that was just a closeup of one of the girls like this too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But maybe the whole art would change that feeling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinterFartSteam Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 This is terrible. I can't believe this is the same band (not all the same members of course) that put out Red album. You could see some progression in Blue record, but it was still a really solid effort. Yellow/Green was meh but tolerable, but this is total garbage. That guitar solo that sounds like a keyboard (or maybe it is a keyboard) around the 4 minute mark is laughable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 That's the full artwork.

throwgncpr Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Is their new label going to have a website/store? I'm curious about where this record might be available. I want to support these guys, but $30 for a single LP seems a bit much right now. I may end up using the pledge site, but I was just curious if anyone had any insight.

whoshotthefrog Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 I bought the black/purple split and the marbled purple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarcX Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 I want to support these guys, but $30 for a single LP seems a bit much right now. My thoughts exactly. Listen to the new song, and I dug it, especially the beginning. I thought the track, lasted a little too long, but I'm sure it would sound better in the context of an album.

Le Gogh Posted August 28, 2015 Author Share Posted August 28, 2015 Grabbed that purple marble straight away! Anyone know how to edit the thread title? I've no idea how... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clerk3745 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 "white on the reverse side"? so split on say A and then solid white on the B side? Has that ever been done? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexicondevil Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Collector in me wants to know which variant is the rarest, but it was fun to just go with the one I think looks coolest, black/purple. Yeah, this was expensive. The only upside is that it includes shipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clerk3745 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 I went with the marbled purple. I may get the split too if we get some clarification... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
museummouth Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 pledgemusic +that price is a real turn off for me. Might just wait for a retail color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moglog Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Got the white/purple, it matches my Yellow/Green split the best. $30 is a lot, but that was a nasty bus crash. They deserve a little extra. clerk3745 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clerk3745 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 In addition to signed merch, we have house shows, unique one-time-only prints, instruments, and even original work by John up for grabs. These will go quickly, so grab them now! Now were talking... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twatay Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Sure! I just feel like with John's art and the lyrical style of all their past stuff, the word "Purple" just seems a little goofy, maybe blunt. It just doesn't feel like it has that same romantic ring the rest of it does. I'm sure the album itself, and the art, will quickly change my opinion on that though. So Red Album, Blue Record, and Yellow & Green are more 'romantic' than Purple? What is going on here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
