Well, I guess it's 'okay'. Can't say I'm blown away really...
The Introspective cover is a classic of course. I'll say it again; LP's were the norm when this baby came out and that particular sleeve (still) looks awesome!!!

i like the gothic fairground theme they seem to be heading for

but not sure i like this cover much... chris look a bit podgy and american... neil looks great.... why not have their faces pointed towards us? and closer?

the spacing of the cover seems weird... very empty and unbalanced

it would make a great poster... just doesnt grab me as a cd cover

anyway, just my opinion

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!!!

With the greatest of respect to your designs Parkol, less is more.

I can't believe they'd put up the actual cover on April 1st. However, I can see how this could be the cover as it obviously fits with all the other PSB branding we've been seeing.

Time will tell!

Quoting Popjustice... "The photo (photo being the promo pic we saw several weeks ago) taken by John Ross, is taken from the album sleeve sessions, so it's a bit like the album sleeve except not.

Therefore I can't see that this is fake.

I fully agree with you. I think this is one of the worst covers..It's just too dark!

The neon lights are very soft cell

If this is for real I must say I liked the I'm with stupid art much more! I can live with that Fundamental art but not much fun holding a vinyl LP almost plain black. Better than Release cover(s) but not better than Disco2's.

I also have the impression this cover has some classic (as a 70's guitar band....) and farewell feeling, they look distant --almost out of the picture!

OTOH, leechers & pirates who'll print the Fundamental cover off internet scans, will spent more money in ink toners than they'd do buying the real album!
