I like the covers for Filter's first two albums. I wish they stuck with the more corporate maxi-single/blandish look for the rest of their album covers.

Ten days until this is released on Domino. It's an album rollout I've been following every step of the way. You better all be prepared for me going Monkeys mad for the next few months!

The artwork for the Japanese release of Pisces, Aquarius, Capricorn & Jones Ltd. by The Monkees. This was actually what I thought the original artwork was when I was a little kid because my dad had a copy of it on CD lying around, as well as various other international Monkees releases. It still holds a certain pocket in my memory despite my love for the original "Music has the Right to Monkees" version :]

I share this exact opinion, although I may not like Short Bus that much I love Title of Record.

When it comes down to it, I have an on/off relationship with Gorillaz music but I've always loved Jamie Hewlett's artwork. :)

It's pretty interesting. Noticing they're using the sideways slant logo from the early records like The Great Escape.
