I actually quite like it as it follows the same theme as the first Pop! release. It's a great follow-up concept. That old artwork certainly didn't affect the great sales of the first Pop! compilation.
Creative in an artistic way? Not really, but it's made to look like one of those hits compilations with different artists on it (such as the Now series). The design is certainly more of a marketing success than an artistic one.
Once again, however, Erasure are definitely not known to be strong in the video/sleeve department. They, fortunately, come from a school of thought where what matters most is what's on the inside. Selling 15 million albums whilst being on an indie label (for the majority of that) and with videos and sleeves that are not ideal by any stretch, is quite an accomplishment.
...and before I forget, "thank you" to the two members here for posting the album covers. That is more promo for Erasure than PSB getting an award.
, he has taken down the avatar of the troll and the Gary Gliiter one he had up (why would anyone want a gary glitter avatar)?
