Any 2-dimensional image would not do it justice, but the design on this one is one of the best packaging designs I've seen in a long time.

(Probably since The Shins' last one.)

According to the liner notes, that picture is actually from some photo book from a library in Lebanon (at least I think it was Lebanon...). It also says that if anyone knows who took this photo, to please contact them!

And I do like that album, btw.

P.S. I read your blog today and I like your 2006 list a lot. Found a few albums I need to check out, including Tycho, which sounds really interesting.

I quite like The Minders cover from 2006...

Image

I guess because I like pattern and it has a sense of early-twentieth century folk art about it.

Not a real good record, but the art design for the new Keane stuff was great.

Yeah, I don't get that.

Also, I don't like the bonus track on the US version ("Reeboks in Heaven") very much either. I think I'd like the album more if I didn't listen to that.
