i recently came across this Bone Awl record while at Vacation Vinyl here in Los Angeles... this cover is a fucked up, photocopied mess and i absolutely love it! really nice and abstract one color collage that has a strong design perspective. there is so much dirt and grit in this thing i can't even really make out what the image is, but i do love the way they used the photo copier distortion as shading in select areas of the art...
these covers were professionally printed and glued on a standard 12" sleeve. the back cover is another great collage comprised entirely of photocopier distortion. i like the way they played with positive and negative space in the composition. there is a lot of visual interest on this panel considering there isn't any sort of central image, just typography. this could have easily been a miss as a design, but the way they approached mixing textures and color keeps the piece very interesting....
A and B labels are as straightforward as they get. just the facts, jack....
