I'll be perfectly frank and admit I did this one below, and I personally think it is the worst album cover I've seen for a long time. I was specifically asked to do this by the band's lynchpin member. As I was commissioned as an illustrator and not as art director it was not for me to try and pursuade them to change their whole campaign concept, just to get on with providing the work they wanted and to do my best with the piss poor fee they were paying me for the work...
I mean... really.

- name doesn't help eithereighteen
- The name is terrible int it. I wanted so much to tell them to stop everything and start from scratch...SkyPoo
- ... the music is good and they could be big, but not like this!SkyPoo
- I thought my brother made that, or the logo, or something. I was pretty sure he was involved somehow.GORADIO
- I think your bro might be havin a laugh Go. Illustration work is mine and logo is a bandwife's. Maybe he cleaned up the logo...SkyPoo
- logo. It used to be even more bonkers and I recommended they at least tidy it up.SkyPoo
- What's his name, I'll check my promo copy tomorrow to see if he's credited for owt on there.SkyPoo
- I think that's it... I knew he didn't make this cover (obviously...) but I think he did clean up the logo or something.

- nope, just is a designer and knows a band member or two.GORADIO
- Oh right, he knows Jaz then. Did he enjoy 2.00am phone calls to discuss painting Jaz's trainers?SkyPoo
