Great article at Sleevage.com: Sleevage: The Modernist Editions

I was wondering what a “conventional” 4AD remaster reissue might look like. What I came up with was a clear outer sleeve with the logo and word “REMASTERED” on the front, and then the barcode and fine print on the back. Each would be a lavish two-disc digipak set–with loads of rare bonus tracks, of course–with newly revized v23 artwork, too, metallic inks and all.

One can dream.

Clearly, Ms Rossi wants you to focus on the music and not the dreadful cover art she has apparently chosen for her debut album on 4AD. Is this possibly a statement on 4AD’s aesthetic reputation? Sure to be hotly debated by diehard fans of the 4AD label…

Seriously, is this a joke?

The 25th Anniversary DVD artwork is just awful. Gandhi looks dead (or at least dozed off) on the DVD. This is really unfortunate and inexplicable, for such an award-winning film. This is one of the worst DVD covers ever: I’m simply stunned this got approved…which makes it a natural for the Revized treatment.

Yet another parody of the NWA classic. I know, I know, leave Britney alone.
