The cover of the new Bloc Party album is ace.

This thread is not about the music though.

Love & Peace

Some record covers are so gorgeous that the record within can be dissapointing in comparison.

I think the cover to Giant Steps is a very accurate reflection of the music contained therin, does that make sense or am I talking rubbish again?

When I get around to releasing my debut album I'm going to put this image on the front cover, I saw it in the museum today:

It doesn't look much on a computer screen but its stunning in real life.

that is one cool album cover, though i'd rather they blurred it a bit more so i didn't recognise regent street..

looking forward to hearing that too.

That's great John Mc - when you zoom right in you can see the brush strokes. Looked like a photo from a distance.

The Bloc Party one is indeed a stunning photo too.

Apparently the front cover of the Bloc Party album is now going to be this:

Not as good as the other one I reckon.

What a huge let-down! Here's hoping for a special edition with the other artwork.
