>>61117559
What a terrible teenage-angst cover. They are just trying to be jaded and edgy. Fuck Death Grips.
>>61117487
It's a visual representation of the urban isolation and paranoia that epitomizes the album

>>61117116
The album is about a drunk driver killing a girl.
Death is around the corner.
>>61117116
The image is from some artists photography series and the statement was there was no theme or message whatsoever across the images in his series.
Theres nothing to get, or its entirely up to you and no interpretation is wrong
>>61119822
It's several phallic objects descending from something.
Also, the Coil "star" is actually an asshole.
I'm also not entirely sure as to what a "Three of a Perfect Pair" is supposed to be.
>>61120463
A chromosome
>>61119870
>>61120373
i don't know who to believe
>>61117712
it's a drawing by kyle field from some sort of freestyle drawing competition
not that it explains much about it but since it was improvised i don't really think much thought was put into it having any substantial meaning
>>61120373
that's actually quite interesting, do you happen to know the name of the series or the photographer?

69 Love Songs
So it's the juxtaposition of the profane and the sentimental, the low and the high, the base instincts that drive us sexually and the noble impulses that drive us to try to be better.
It's immature and also earnest. It's puerile but also corny. It's dirty but it's also got a warm heart.
>>61118227
It looks like the kind of color scheme/aesthetic that was popular with snowboarders at the time.
It suggests sportiness (always an attractive quality in young men) and also exhibits a slick, clean, and slightly edgy aesthetic that was pretty trendy at the time.
Also it features pictures of each of the band members, whose appearances were part of the appeal of the band.
>>61117278
Art by acclaimed modern artist George Condo. Supposed to represent Kanye's id, his fantasy of fucking a mythical white bitch angelbeast while guzzling malt liquor.
>>61123209
this may be the most needless but well written explanation i've ever seen.
>>61123275
Reference to the opera.
>>61123549
it doesn't mean anything. it's all about the aesthetic. which is really meaningful in like, a postmodern way
who dis bald ass nigga senpai
>>61117573
I hope you realize GY!BE covers have never made much sense.
>>61123549
someone post the video this is from cant remember
>>61123653
The LYSF cover and related art is pretty coherent.
>>61117729

I misread OP. I didn't see "covers". I thought it was just albums you don't get.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fqFdW7vFMac a comment says it's at 3:25 but it's worth watching the whole thing.
Is this an ape on the cover? And why does it look like that?
>>61117573
it's fitting with the music, which is enough for it to make sense as a cover. look at it holistically instead of asking yourself why there's sheep there.
>>61124218
It's a lower part of a man's body. The legs are placed together.
The "head" is actually the ballsack and the "hole" is a chopped-off penis.
>>61117116
>2003
>girls gotta be at least 18 now
any pics of her?
Is there any meaning to this cover or are they just chilling? Also, where was this pic taken, in a quarry?
>>61123275
The Japanese thing fits with Across The Sea (which is about a Japanese girl). It's also just a postcard that Rivers found somewhere.
>>61124423
Quarry outside of Louisville
amyoe like memes?
>>61124423
What a terrible teenage-angst meme. They are just trying to be jaded and edgy. Fuck Slint
>>61122817
"The album cover is a picture titled "Untitled #44" from Nicholas Prior's "Age of Man" collection which the band saw at an art show in New York."
from Wikipedia, look up the artist/show for more info
Why is a nude anime girl the cover art? Is it just to make people uncomfortable when they buy it in public?
>>61124631
Please use a trip so I can disregard your opinions
>>61125834
Read the thread faggot
>>61123966
Yanqui UXO makes the most sense out of all of them. It's a picture of bombs fallings
>>61125997
>>61123966
Oh, I'm autistic. Thought you were saying it was incoherent. Ignore me
This in combination of Spirit of Eden always seemed so enigmatic to me, obviously it's some kind of genesis/destruction thing but I feel like I'm missing something
>>61124423
yeah it was taken in a local quarry. they grew up together and that was a spot they liked hanging out at even though they werent allowed to be there. they thought it would be a good place to use for their album cover
>>61126214
The birds are resting in leaves that look like the continents. There's no deeper meaning behind the cover; the art was made before the album was made. Talk Talk just had a long partnership with the artist.
The lyrics, however, seem like incomprehensible nonsense.
