I LOVE the neon idea. The cover is a bit bland, but...not bad at all I guess. I just LOVE those neon lights!

You know, the more I look at it, the more I like it.

The neon title in the upper left corner is QUITE eyecatching.

Then you scan over to the dimly lit yet spotlighted visages of N&C.

CLASSIC :clap:

Further thoughts:
Reminiscent of PSB's classic image: Neil is erudite (but occasionally foolish) and Chris is street-smart, but they both share a common view and experience of modern existence. Perhaps overstating the case, but a truly excellent sleeve nonetheless! Much better than Release, Bilingual, Nightlife, and Introspective put together!!!

so I am then guessing the other color neon lights are in fact the tracklist that will be on the back.

Further, further thoughts: does Chris not look somewhat Sopranoesque on that album sleeve? Of corse, Neil has somehow managed his first clasic look in 16 years...

I am disappointed.
I don't see any idea here, I don't feel PSB on this cover, it's very bad.
Neon lights, Neil, Chris and 85% of black color.
Who's dead?
I am a fan for 16 years and i thnik it is one of the worst psb covers.

Farrow has lost his talant. He had to stop and look back at the time when he did
Introspective, Was It Worth It, Bilingual, Behaviour and etc...

I hope it is not real cover or... they will change their minds!
Awefull!!!

IMO the introspective cover was the one terrible cover in the PSB catalog.
I think this cover is great.

I think they are going for the seedy retro 80's gaudy look. it looks cool as hell.
