Astrognomix Posted January 21, 2011 Posted January 21, 2011 OMG! My thoughts exactly. The cover alone makes me really want to know what's on this album. Can't seem to find samples, though... Quote
Rotwang Posted January 21, 2011 Posted January 21, 2011 My thoughts exactly. The cover alone makes me really want to know what's on this album. Can't seem to find samples, though... There you go Sounds like the decent end of the fullon spectrum. Quote
abasio Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 The new Ishq is fairly pleasant without really blowing me away But False Mirror comes good again with Derelict World's cover Good but not quite as good as the previous cover North Quote
Drosophila Posted January 30, 2011 Posted January 30, 2011 I like the fisherman theme they got going awesome --- Quote
Elysium Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 Are some of the se so-called "good" (in an artistic and creative sense) covers based on your objective opinion or based on your taste in music? Cause I see some covers that look like a 3 year old kid has made them. Uninspiring, boring and at times stereotype flashy trance style covers. Of course IMO Quote
Rotwang Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 ...objective opinion... Your post sounds like 3 year old kid wrote it. Of course IMO Quote
abasio Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 I must admit to not liking some of the covers posted here but it's all based on people's opinions. I don't expect everyone to love what I love and sometimes I like what I know is a bit crappy Quote

Elysium Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 My point was, a certain 3 year old seem to misunderstand everything i say , that sometimes it seem that people like a obviously bad designed cover because they like the music. Quote
abasio Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 I find a lot of factors can influence my opinions on things. With me though it is usually the other way round, the cover can influence how I see the music. A bright fractal cover often leaves me with a colourful view of the tunes inside whereas a dark space like cover leaves me hearing cool blackness I've never had it the other way round though, probably because I always see the cover first and then listen to the music.

Tatsu Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 Lots of very nice stuff here! I'm not gonna quote all but those are my favourites: Reminds me how nature looks like when I'm tripping. I'm checking out the samples right now and it sounds nice actually. For me it's rather vice versa: if I like a cover I hope I want to like the music so I can buy the album. If the music is good and the cover not, I don't really care. Buying an album just because of a cover is not possible because of my budget. I like comics and this one is pretty funny. Quote
Rotwang Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 Cool indeed. Here's a less shitty upload, via discogs: e. Huh, that's weird. The letter 's' is missing from psyshop's version. Quote
abasio Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 Not sure about that last one. The background's nice but the guy on the front looks like he's just been slapped on the picture. Quote
Richpa Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 Well that cover artwork for sure isn't my favorite from Cronomi. Freshly Cut Tomatoe was awesome, People Walk Funny was interesting and psychedelic, Artha (EP and album) was nice (speaking from designers view) but too much of purlple and strange head obviously wasn't enough for some people, however I like both covers from Artha. But this one... Im gonna be honest here, it doesn't look professional at all - sliced Kali image added on some spacy/fire background without any smoothing transitions between image of Kali and the background, color balance between red/orange and black colour isn't adjusted well. Speaking of font, it doesnt got any effects, no shading, no gloss, not even any kind of stroke and it looks too empty. Maybe some small gradient based on orange and red towards the black colour would be much nicer. However, this is my opinion and probably many people will disagree here, and many people gonna like it, but for me it looks like its made in Paint. Quote
