was released, “My starting point would always be the music, reading the lyrics, talking with the band. The images that [Frank Black] painted with his lyrics really struck a chord. His work is full of fantastic imagery that always appealed to me, and those were ideas I was trying to reflect with the packaging.”
“A cover should work as an entrance door that invites you to cross it. But the cover most people have talked to me about isn’t the one for . If I’d gotten a pound for each person who ever told me they decided to study graphic design because of that cover,” Oliver“I wouldn’t know how to explain why it has become such an iconic and admired cover.
