I could have slapped together something better on my 20 year old Commodore 64 and charged Noel half as much. Wanna try it without joking and give us a look at it?

I like it. It is appealing to the eyes. Nice colors and some cool shit. Abstract. Inspired by the sixties definitely, but it doesn't feel cheap.

seriously though there are plenty of artwork makers on this forum like Marcosoasis and James Dalt who make bootleg covers that look ten times better than this cheap Beatles rip off cover.

Any idea if this album is gonna be on vinyl or not? I've preordered the CD but I really want the vinyl!

The trouble with that comparison (and I've seen pretty much every bootleg cover), as talented as those guys are, I don't think any of them ever really made something this ambitious. Their work is usually a play on the album's art, or employs something the band wore/held/played whatever, something in those lines. They could've done a better job on Familiar To Millions, I'd give you that, but to conceptualize a cover by sticking an image to a whole new album is another ball of wax, IMO. The cover's probably average at best in the art world, but it's at least better than the last three covers. I'm glad the band at least wanted something that looked like this.

The artwork is pretty cool-reminds me of The Beatles!! I love the colouring, a lot better than Don't Believe The Truth's sleeve, which was their worst!!! Can't wait for the album!!
