This certainly looks interesting. Of course it could turn out to be completely crap, but I'm intrigued none the less. If anyone knows about this band feel free to tell me all about it.

However since almost certainly 99.99% of you don't know any more about this band than I do, I propose we save the thread and you post your favourite album cover of 2006.

i posted a tune from them back in February. cool and energetic brit indie rock. kinda quriky in parts, in some ways sounding like Supergrass. really fun listen, and a band that i think are gonna be pretty big once the album circulates a bit more.

and yeah, the cover is awesome.

Anyone in a band should take note that album artwork is very important, even though a lot of bands don't seem to think so.

I can't think of how many bands I looked into because I'd be flipping through the bins in a record store and their album would stand out with a cool or interesting title.

I believe so.


By the way, the discrepancy between Young Knifes in the thread title and Young Knives in the actual band name is bugging me.
