it looks to me from the album art and now the art for swoon (both of which i think are stunning) means a return to vegatable vision for the sleeve art.

obviously it only makes sense seeing as the whole album is tied together with vision from adam

but i just wanted to make a thread that praises the awesomeness of the images in DYOH and EPD and pass on the excitement and aproval of these stunning images we have been provided just recently.

really perfect. YAY

kate gibb is great too though, don't get it twisted. its just nice to see the familiar stylings of yesteryear.

vegetable vision have never done sleeve art work for the chemical brothers. the design for the first 2 albums were done by negatviespace. the design studio used for the further artwork is tom hingston studios.

If you'd like, I can change the title of the thread - just let me know, I'll do that when I'm on a real computer.

Personally I think it's exciting to see a change in the approach to the album art. I love Kate Gibb's work on Surrender, Come With Us and We Are The Night - and I liked the the bold imagery used for the Push The Button era. But I think the art for this new era is almost coming full circle in the sense photography is used again, however these images we've seen so far have a softer, more aesthetic and femenine edge.

Between the cover art for Swoon and Further, what do people think of the feminine subject matter?

I think the Chems go Olympic with the new cover designs
Further: diving
Swoon: Gymnast

It goes al the way back to Elektrobank, yeah.
Could it be Sofia on the cover of Swoon? :roll:

I really dig the cover for Swoon, looks like it could be an old jazz album from the 60's or 70's.

I like how simple but effective the new covers are. Especially how simple swoon is, but yet how good it looks. They were starting to get pretty complicated and crowded during WATN. But then I guess each era has its own theme to go with it. And yes it seems to be coming back to EPD and DYOH style of abstract photos which is great. Maybe i'll make a wallpaper of the swoon girl :D
