So here's the latest sleeve to come out of the busy X~Ray workshop. This one came via Dead Beat Records. The cover was started by someone else and featured the band on a plain yellow background, Tom at Dead Beat thought it looked too plain, I agreed and decided that some photocopied and much enlarged Letraset electronic symbols would help 'magnetic' this up a bit.
From originaly just being approached to adjust the front, this project turned into full LP and CD jacket, along with labels and on body CD print. I kinda like the way this turned out. The band let me get on with it and me and Tom traded a ton of e-mails until we both got the result you see here now! The Buzzcocks proved an inspiration for the hand lettered type on the front!
