 Post subject: Thoughts on the full-length cover design?Posted: Fri Dec 10, 2004 3:16 am 
I rather like it. It's enough like the two EPs to be consistent and familiar, but it also shows the whole band, and that's nice. The font on the title is cool, too. What do y'all think? _________________ INTELLECT AND ROMANCE OVER BRUTE FORCE AND CYNICISM Smokemonster |

I really like the cover, stylistically....very soft and glowing, definitely channels the sound of the band into the visual medium. Reminds me a bit of the Invisible Band by Travis, but with a definite extra magic quality. The girls all look ready to do the Charleston. The font for 'Room Noises'....I like it, except for the 'm'. Looks a bit too Tolkien in the way the last stroke swoops back. But then again I look at fonts all day and am hyper-critical in general. Overall, it's the best cover yet. Not as "green" as the previous ones. |

Id love to see the pdf full detail and such but this will do, captures all the elements of the ep's and eisley but gives a distinct feel. Im not goanna dawg on Boyds design since he went to school for it and has been in the industry for a long time. And plus I love his work. |

Yeah... I think it's very appropriate artwork for the band. It visually communicates the way their music sounds. Boyd did a very good job of catching them in their "playful" element. I think those pics he used were on Sheri's xanga at one time. They are pics of them dressing up and playing swords fights and shuch. It's great that he utilized some of those photos. good stuff. |

I like!! I like!! This one definitely blows all the rest away! I was actually concerned about how it would look, but this exceeded all my expectations!! Boyd, you are genius. _________________ "You're my favorite person." - David Carradine, Kill Bill vol. 2 |

I really like it. It feels like it will be at home on vinyl. So we better see vinyl and a nice, big cover. (And I'm not even that crazy about vinyl, I just want to see the art blown up.) _________________ My photography:www.jamiemphoto.com You can't spell awesome without emo...backwards! -Julie definingawesome (11:44:11 PM): Eisley shivers our timbers |
