Come on now.

And the center of that triangle contains the all-seeing eye (Eye of Providence) just like lightning bolt cover does.

I don't know why people like comparing albums so much. If anything, putting LB next to NC just makes it an even worse album.

Even though I like LB, I just hate the production and some of the artistic choices.

i was totally blown away

had no idea what the polaroids were about

such a deep album, on so many levels

the banana has spots

it's the present tense polaroid

the banana is going very ripe

not yet too ripe

but very ripe

it must be eaten

you must live

in the present tense

eat the banana

or it will go bad

just like in life

i also found the hail hail single cover, from the cd

the green color on it is very satisfying

i like the polaroid of the man in the ocean with his hand raised

but on the single the coloring is a notch more intense

maybe i'll buy the 7 inch vinyl just to hang that image in a larger size

Have you seen the way the banana ripens?
Does it inspire?

I was a movie usher when dead man walking was in theaters, I always had a good time cleaning the theater after because that song played over the end credits

I remember No Code playing while messing around in the back of my car with my wife soon after we met. Weird? Maybe.

I remember blasting Mind Your Manners driving to and from the vet, while debating whether or not it was time to put him down. pretty similar.
