I've wondered: do I like certain album art only because I like the music? I've looked around Eyesore at the other 4AD artists, the ones I've heard of but whose music I haven't heard. None of their album covers jumped out at me.
But there's proof that I don't like certain sleeves just because I like music. Ever since Frank Black left 4AD I've been underwhelmed by the record sleeves. I mean they're fine, and some of them are very good, but you can tell that there's a I-don't-care-it's-all-about-the-music-so-I'm-not-gonna-get-all-wrapped-up-in-the-sleeve attitude.
Still, there are some that I like. Here are two Show Me Your Tears-era EPs.
