Accidentally made the glowing man cover about ten times better
>>63869216
I know this is a shit post but I do agree with you
Love it
>>63869216
I dont think blues work here, should try dark reds and muted yellows. The cardboard should be maroon or something, and the symbol like a burnt yellow with gold outline
Yeah no, blue does not cut it, not enough colour variety either. I don't kike the orrigonal, but this is worse.
>>63869687
>kike
>>>/pol/
it looks like swans goes autechre
version 2
>>63869759
>a full blown swans / autechre collab album most probably won't ever exist
why even live
>these graphic design losers thinking anyone cares about the arbitrary nonsense they were taught
No one except you would give a single fuck how blue it is if this was the cover they chose from the beginning and you know it
>>63869216
Ignore the poorly done ms paint edit, but I feel the best cover is one where the background is a nice crimson red, with the center being green
>>63870115
please dont ever post again
>>63870115
i laughed really hard at this
>>63870115
fuck me sideways man
>>63870115
>poorly done
don't be so modest
>>63870115
this should be the actual cover, with the white and everything
quick edit i made. its pretty bad. my graphic design is rusty.
>>63870490
big nope to this
>>63870513
yeah not my best work.
>>63870490
looks like a nu-metal cover good job anon really great work
>>63870490
Literally rusty
>>63870490
>>63870115
Spoopy X-Files shit here
Hue'd it.
>>63871063
Best so far
mr swans here
good work guys
>>63870490
wow
the suck is strong in this
>>63871347
the only suck my shitty shit gives me is succ :\
>>63871063
Me again, hows about green?
I think it's pretty safe to say that a good number of people will get some kind of alternate album art for this. Going back to yellow was a real strange move.
>>63870115
I'm fuckin crying rn
Why is the album art such a pressing matter for people anyway?
These are all shit, stop. The original is fine.
>>63871602
they're afraid its not memeable enough
>>63871602
aesthetics matter
Anyone else think this image somehow has meme potential?
>>63870490
>its pretty bad
if you think it's bad then why waste people's fucking time and waste precious 4chan megabytes you piece of shit?
Goddammit OP, just fucking stop.
I tried to make it cooler
>>63871847
Now it looks like the next Jason Aldean album
>>63871602
Because covers can really affect how interested people are in an album. Covers should give the listener an idea I'd what they are about to listen to. This is why people don't like The Glowing Man's cover: it looks pretty similar to the color scheme and look of TBK, which kind of suggests that it'll be quite similar to TBK in sound
>>63870490
>Impact
:^)
>>63871985
faggot
almost all swans covers look like almost every other swans cover
someone do the thing
>>63872838
someone get gira on the phone we have the new album art
>>63872838
actual cover coming through
>>63873222
were you the guy who did the love of life one i posted and this one?
>>63873248
no, its just piss easy to make these type of covers
Someone wanna shoop/fix the bottom and we have a large alternate?
>>63871602
It's just such a shame because The Seer and To Be Kind had such beautifully succinct album art. Especially TBK, they perfectly nail the sound and theme of their respective albums.
This is some poorly drawn cut off arm digitally inserted on-top of a scan of cardboard, for an album that is apparently centered around love, I don't see a connection.
For how big the theme of clouds and transcending seems to be, and Gira describing the band drifting away on a rust colored cloud on "People Like Us" it seemed like the perfect excuse for good album art. Maybe that's too cheesy and self referential for Gira, but it would perfectly fit the progression the band has been going through with the last 3 albums.
>>63873372
i really wish he would drop the whole cardboard thing
>>63870534
More like no metal
>>63873277

>>63871602
Album art can seriously affect how the music sounds sometimes...
Visuals have a deeper impact on experience than people realize. Would you eat blue scrambled eggs?
>>63873483
No metal is a good genre for Swans, especially for Filth, it sounds like a metal album.
>>63869216
Fly Pan Am
>>63873765
this
its weird worrying about album art but it has its effects on the album itself
idk
>>63870115
Teach me your posting ways
>>63871431
I said this earlier, but I think red background with a green center would look best.
>>63871431
>a good number of people will get some kind of alternate album art for this
Unfortunately for you not so many people have autism
I'm curious, someone make it into a MBDTF style.
>>63870490
literally post-grunge
no one even knows if it's the official album art ffs
>>63870115
lmfao
>>63877245
The band themselves have confirmed it you idiot
>>63877402
no, they haven't. you're the idiot
>>63877451
Check their facebook you dense shit
>Slapping it onto that garbage older Swans album cover format
Dubs
seriously tho why is the album art so shitty? There's no way I'm using this. I'll probably just use a plain black image tb h.
oops
Who else thought it was a reference to filth when they first saw the cover?
>NOW FLEX YOUR MUSCLESSSSSSSSSSSSSS
and the nigga so malnourished he ain't got no gotdamn muscle on his gotdamn body.
This album is going to be about some guy starving to death.
>>63877500
Very nice.
