Forgetters – Too Small To Fail

A pretty collage of flowers for the first release, a double 7 inch, by the amazing Brooklyn punk rock group Forgetters featuring bassist Caroline Paquita (Bitchin’), drummer Kevin Mahon (ex-Against Me!) and Blake Schwarzenbach (Jawbreaker, Jets to Brazil).

Bad Religion – The Dissent of Man

Definitely digging this more then their past few album covers. An illustrated diagram that has been photocopied and is displaying the CM & K colors of CMYK for that 3D look along with the classic Bad Religion logo and a clean script font for the album cover. So long awful grungy fonts from New Maps From Hell. Perhaps, the cover is a social statement referring to how all this horrible 3D movie craze is part of the dissent of man?

The Sword – Warp Riders

Well executed cover with an old sci-fi novel / star wars ish type feel. Highly anticipating this album.

Lair of the Minotaur – Evil Power

I think the typography of the Evil Power text is a bit weird, but the painting is rather sinister.
