Rocky Braveheart Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 I'm definitely in my own weird-ass minority! I dig the Cali artwork and think it fits but have never ever been a fan of untitleds art and the smiley! Ah well! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who would have thought Travis would end up being the one over bearing in the band? He brings in Feldman, 'his guy', to over produce the album. Has his guy do the artwork. He has them do Steve Aoki shit, one of his guys. On top of that, his drums are turned way up in the mix and dominate nearly every track. Not ripping on Travis, but he definitely has taken a new leadership role I'm not so sure is working. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agree, Dogs Eating Dogs artwork was stupid and Cali is decent but still just a strange vibe to be incorporated into Blink's music and aesthetic.

plusavablinker Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 At this moment I just want feldmann to go away and blink wrote their songs on their own with a lot of guitar work from mr Skiba. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless my interpretation is wrong of it, isn't the artwork showing a failing relationship with the guy growing cold and numb to it all, and on a ride which one would assume is on some desert path in California? Seems to fit quite a bit of the songs. It's james deans corpse driving a car with some blonde woman next to him. not really sure how that fits into California at all.

Ghent Posted February 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 Besides Enema, has blink's album artwork ever been that good? Cheshire/Buddha/Dude Ranch are funny in a shitty kind of way. Enema is iconic. TOYPAJ-meh. untitled-could be better, a little bland. Neighborhoods- it's ok. California- could have been more "complete"..i like the art, but the cropping was a bit odd of a decision. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dylan_ Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 Enema and Untitled are great albums covers, the others are all just pretty average in my opinion. I liked the idea of the Neighborhoods artwork but a bit of color could of made it more creative and stand out. California is kind of the opposite. I think the colors and the layout are really cool but it just doesn't fit the actual album very well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jan Backing Track Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 I'm super lame and like TOYPAJ's cover. I mean come on, it's still a funny play on words today and just a good vibe overall. Plus the photos inside were cool. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 Best cover was the one used on The Mark, Tom and Travis Show. By far. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champ182 Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 I loved the Untitled cover and think it was definitely iconic, but they kinda ended up cheapening it a bit by re-using the smiley face constantly after that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kay Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 I love the TOYPAJ cover, probably my favourite one. no idea why I just love it. the earlier ones are lamer although I do love the dude ranch cover, TMTTS is probably the best one though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
