Re: Lightning Bolt -- guess the tracks!
Basically it's a process where uncommon shapes are cut into the material. Usually in album cover, the different shapes are cut and the negative space is used to create layers and multiple images. It's more rare to see in such a large production (as PJ would be) bc it's much more expensive to do.stip wrote:What does that mean?bodysnatcher wrote:that would be insanely coolThejambi wrote:Based on symmetry, repetition and connection of forms, I wouldn't be suprised if the artwork is going to be layered with die cuts or something.

I think Boom's in charge of how this is all being presented. That's why he wasn't in the MYM video, he's hard at work releasing these photos.bodysnatcher wrote:There's a fair chance the band doesn't even know this is happeningstupidmop wrote:Sgt.
