Like... it looks like the Moonshake guy did it, if that makes sense. On 10/19/2018 at 10:07 AM, tetsuodaironman said: It does. Fucking terrible. Worst art I've ever seen on any LP ever. Yaller nuts. This is exactly what the characters & their environment are supposed to look like, maybe the only piece of Turtles spin-off merch I've seen get it right in recent years. Looks tough & gritty/urban, but still more-or-less kid-friendly. Also looks like a basically homemade 80s indie comic -- as it should. Love the roughness of Eastman's lines, traces of graf & anime/manga in the character designs, 70s children's book illustration in the background; love the noirish streetscape & looming skyline suggesting a seedy, trashy, crime-scarred Manhattan that doesn't really exist anymore. Good stuff, and the relative crudity of Eastman's style is a definite virtue in that regard, like you know there's ass about to get kicked. Far more appropriate and interesting than most of the characterless, soulless, blandly realistic "art" that typically graces these money-sink soundtrack reissues aimed at indiscriminate pop culture collectors . I mean, I'm not gonna buy a copy, because the music doesn't interest me, but the packing is fucking perfect.

highfives Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 (edited) I didn’t know Eastman did the LP artwork until people were complaining about how bad it was and I went to the description and looked. They got the creator of TMNT to do the LP art and people say it sucks... that’s hilarious. Edited October 21, 2018 by highfives Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unknown pleasures Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 I haven’t seen TMNT artwork that looks that stiningkly awful since this piece of s—t cover: Eastman and Laird must be rolling in their graves, whoever the heck they are.

lethalenforcer Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 I assumed that red version was the retail variant of Drag Me To Hell. Was hoping for a dog fur white with brown poo blob variant for The Burbs. stongo and pizza face 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lethalenforcer Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Well, thankfully I dig the sub variants more than both retails in these instances. Not very huge differences, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Recon Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 Also today. Loved the series, one of the best shows I saw on Netflix. The soundtrack is also good, very calm though. Not sure yet, if I will pick it up. I guess it also won't be WW exclusive. Han Solo and Rip 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outside of the film, not really worth almost $50 to me. I think I only see it as being married to the picture. Rather boring sounding on its own. But hey, lots of people are gonna get it just for the art. We get it. docbronze 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree completely, as much as I would like to grab it the soundtrack isn't worth that much to me either.. IDK about everyone else but I also don't listen to film scores enough throughout the year to buy that many of them with these kind of prices so I try to just stick with a few favorites and grab some I see here and there at a good price. I have a feeling I can eventually grab one of the variants in the 30 range if I wait a bit. Great to see this finally get re-issued though regardless. tetsuodaironman and docbronze 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
