Laughing City

I have always stared in wonder at the writing on the right hand side of the Marvelous things ep cover, trying to make the words out. Then I saw the same script on the Room Noises cover. So I'd really love to know where the script was taken from. Anyone have a clue?

Also, while I'm at it, I thought I'd ask. Does the little girl on the laughing city ep cover have a pig snout, or is it just me?

i'll have to dig up the old script.... can't recall right now. my brain hasn't
been soaked yet in coffee this morning. was there a script? wait. here's
one in a box... ahh. i sorta remember. But, i'll have to open the original
ps doc and find the layer. I think it was something sherri wrote about her
sister or something...or a friend.

At some point I will dredge up the copy on the new cover...but, I'll have
to think about when. I rather enjoy the mystery.

There are types and shadows and overlapping visuals that connect the
full length to the ep's... I wanted continuity - backwards - to affirm
Eisley's connection and identity with the songs and experiences that
literally ALL share the same history.

but...great question. now for that caffein soaking.

It looks to me as though she's just drinking out of a cup or bowl. Perhaps she likes to drink the milk leftover after she finishes her cereal.

wow, thanks princessx for the link. Smile


it took me a few months to notice the shadows on laughing city as well. very crafty that boyd is, with all that subterannean layering and shadowing. great job on the album covers.

did anyone notice weston doing the "rock sign" on the back of laughing city, from inside his pocket?
