xxp Looks kind of Acid Mothers Temply.
That Foxes cover. I don't like it. Apparently contrived head-and-shoulders shots of artists staring off-camera and expressing vague emotions annoy me. See also that one St. Vincent cover.

What is the Mø record all about? The cover is surely a tribute to AR & Machines, right?

If you don't want to take a photo for your album cover, you should make some art for it instead.

It looks like Morrissey is teaching a dog that world peace is none of its business. Which I guess is true, but I still don't get it?

(sorry for vice link but it was the only place i could find it big enough to see the detail)
Okay, that's just awful! I guess it's supposed to be a parody of some sort, but... what's the point?
― Tuomas, Tuesday, 17 June 2014 12:39 (ten years ago) link
Okay, now that I look at it a bit closer (I'd love to see a bigger version that wouldn't make me squint), looks like all the participants in it are male. So is it supposed like a queer satire of typical metal covers? But do any actual metal covers look like that? Certainly the art style feels more Crumb than Vallejo.
