Photo by Briana PurserIt's very true that you can't judge a book by it's cover, except that sometimes you can. Consider the artwork that accompanies Directions To See A Ghost, the new album due next Tuesday from Austin, Texas' Black Angels. Rare is it that a record's visuals so accurately describe that which is contained within.
First there's the colours. Reds and greens that aren't quite fluorescent but are definitely intense. Combine that with the design, radial lines arranged in concentric circles that could be exploding outwards or sucking inwards, or perhaps both at read more »
