gmoney Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 I agree with everyone (except ysmr). One of the worst album covers I've ever seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vinylmaus Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 It looks like something you'd find at a car wash discount bin. Like a Blink 182 album 20 years from now? youspinmeround 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
numanoid Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 I could probably *tolerate* that art, but the text that's just slapped on there... that's bad. It looks like one of those shitty punk fliers you see with a million different fonts thrown together by some wanna be artist. At least with the Pork Soda cover, the font matched the art.

PC Music Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 I keep looking at it and it's just pissing me off. It's so ugly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mameeshkamowskwoz Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 A lot of art prints these days are created by computer. Not saying this is worthy of that status, but its not an automatic knock on the design. I guess I needed to clarify that I mean of the era that particular Primus album came out... mid-90s when the technology was new and everything looked corny and cheap, yet was considered amazing... I would image most album graphics are made on a computer these days (and even photos and hand created art is in some way manipulated on a computer) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noalarmplanet Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 who would buy a litho of this art? its basically mosquito baby rape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek™ Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Wait, the lithograph is of the album art? (Clearly I haven't bothered to even look at pre-order options.) But if so, that's awful. I feel like they should be paying us to take them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clh2285 Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Hopefully we will see a non "deluxe" version of this soon. I am excited to hear this and you will rarely ever hear me complain about the price of a record but $40? Sheeshhh... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamover Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Insound - $16.99 and comes with free "Sacrilege/Mosquite (Live)" 7" http://www.insound.com/Mosquito-Vinyl-LP-Yeah-Yeah-Yeahs/P/INS117404/ Amazon $17.52 - http://www.amazon.com/Mosquito-Yeah-Yeahs/dp/B00B10XACI/ref=tmm_vnl_title_0?ie=UTF8&qid=1364832082&sr=8-1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewlucas Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 damn. ill buy that 7" off someone if they don't want it. $10? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewlucas Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Leaked. Gonna listen to it tomorrow. If it blows I might still have time to cancel my $50 vinyl... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkeyelids Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Im honestly finding this album challenging to get through. Perhaps its a grower? But right now this is not gelling that well. I really like the tracks sacrilege, mosquito and wedding bells. The rest of the songs are just kinda there and just dont hit it, which is shame as this band has a pretty strong track record with me. Oh well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewlucas Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 so.... its not horrible.... its just not as good as any other Yeah Yeah Yeahs albums. I think I might try to cancel my order. The signed litho isn't really worth the extra $35 to me. I collect them usually but I could pass on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dreamover Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 wasn't expecting much from this record. i like their early stuff, but my favorite is it's blitz. it's just such a fun record. but i'm no diehard fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewlucas Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 fever to tell and show your bones were my favorite. I really like the Is Is EP. They should re-press that on a 12" instead of the 7" set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orangesix Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Listened to it, its okay. Never expected them to be able to live up to their initial hype, but I really do think they've gone downhill with each record they've put out. They keep progressing in that all the newer albums they put out are at the very least interesting, but none of them live up to Fever to Tell. And that probably has a lot to do with timing and being at the right place at the right time and also how old I was when it came out, vs now, but I saw this band in their prime (right before they "blew up") and their stage presence was unmatched. That said, listened to it, liked it but I can't get passed the terrible album cover so I probably won't buy it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
