If the album art is the perfect expression of the music, what is there to say about the sound?
If you wanted to make an exploration into how sound and images are reflective of each other, you probably would be hard pressed to find better examples than these two album covers.
The music for both albums is dark, barren and depressing, as well as more than slightly beautiful. Everything about these two releases can be summed up by how perfect their album art is.
I guess all I can really do is let the albums speak for themselves. Each has a rather flawed beauty, but is definitely worth a listen.
The Frames - Burn The Maps
The Standard - August
