John 5
John 5 is the new Steve Vai. He is amazing! He made Marilyn Manson. I've seen him twice with Rob Zombie, and both times were incredible! If you haven't checked him out before, do! Steve Vai worked with John on the Songs For Sanity record. I'd post the link to his site, but I haven't been here for a week yet, so, I'll wait.

You should buy the excellent book 'Heavy Metal Thunder-Album Covers that Rocked the World' if you want to see some really awful, and some very good, album covers.NantucketSleighrider wrote:Dear me!

It's a shame that CD booklet are so small-the artwork detail is completely lost. Record compnaies shoud make the art work downloadable so a buyer can print them out in a larger format.
As long as the album rocks, who gives crap about the cover dearie??NantucketSleighrider wrote:Dear me! I have seen some rubbish album covers in my time, but this is defo up there!

I do, "dearie!" What happened to the days where everything about the album was a work of art?!? The music, the sleeve, the artwork, the freebies! I rememember buying Black Sabbath's "Master of Reality" in the box vinyl when it first came out. Fab cover, fab album, and a fab free poster, which it worth a canny bit today!treeduck wrote:As long as the album rocks, who gives crap about the cover dearie??NantucketSleighrider wrote:Dear me!

All I am saying is, if you are spending that long working on the music, spend more than 5 minutes on a decent cover!!!
OK, rant over!
Well no one here can really help you with your album cover anxiety issues, but you could always send John an email or something, maybe include some album cover ideas...NantucketSleighrider wrote:I do, "dearie!"
