Amazing to say the least.
I started off trying to be as careful as i could opening the black case, eventually after 10 minutes of trying and a papercut under my nail, i could not preserve the 'zomby' writing at the top and i ripped it open. Only to find, to my joy another vinyl sleeve within the black one with a trippy pattern on it and natalias song in faded writing! I then slowly pulled the vinyl out to witness yet another beautiful piece of artwork of a mysterious girl on the b side !

:Q: Me too. Gotta have one in the original state. Probably end up giving it as a gift (or selling it if it gets stupidly priced on discogs ;-) )

So in your opinion, what the hell are "American" eyes?

Look, it is the same font as Tower Records used, and it wouldn't matter if Tower Records was from fucking Mars. Stop with the stupid jingoistic bullshit.

The font is in the Impact family which is a default font found on most computers. Also very commonly seen when making chans or chops.

So ok then, let's clarify, I wasn't looking at this through "American" eyes, I was looking at it through "I remember Tower Records using that font long before such things as digital font sets became all the rage in graphic design and before the birth of the 'Impact family'"

This mb and its obsession with nationalism is really, really outta control.

im american was supporting your thought

but to correct you Impact was developed in the 60's and is a relatively classic font

example of simplicity and 3 minutes in photoshop

Yeah and incinc I'm still trying to figure out what the hell you meant by the term "American eyes" since you debuted it in this thread...care to explain?

pkay: Sorry if I came off antagonistic, that was entirely aimed at incinc.

edit: And, if it wasn't obvious already, I am totally ignorant to graphic design. I would still consider Tower Records the most recognizable use of that font though, and that was my frame of reference for my original post in this thread.
