our bassist did the artwork, with the album layout and lots of tweaking/editing done by our very own JRMY! by the way, he's awesome and such a pleasure to work with... so if you have any graphic design stuff HE'S THE MAN.
Aw, thanks Brian! I just saw the props now... it was a fun project, and you guys were great to work with - lots of excellent ideas on tap!
Also, I cannot confirm and deny whether or not I've heard any of the music on this album, but if I had heard it (through some bizarre series of un-duplicate-able events), I would definitely say that it is 100% awesomesauce in sonic form.

That's cuz it is! Matt Whipple, the bass player, cut those all out, assembled them, and scanned the resulting collage in! While I had to tweak or change up some of them in photoshop, I retained the edges of the cut squares and as much of the hand-done vibe as I could.
Glad to hear the album is out! I was watching your band on Pitchfork's "Don't Look Down" last week and it was great! I could not figure out how recent the episode was, so I have no idea which album the songs were from. Awesome either way. I also enjoyed the interview Blake did with you on WTDP.

fuck yeah jrmz, that's the way to do it. The end result has all the awesomez of the old/ classic cools of the collage posters and album covers.

Whhhooooooaaaaaa. Brian, you're in Cymbals Eat Guitars? Have you always been in this band? I never knew this! I watched you guys last year when you played at Harvest of Hope!
