Wilc Os Posted September 23 Share Posted September 23 On the topic of Hot Sun cover art, did anyone else here have a go at the DIY of it? Thanks to @kidsmoke I have a copy right over the other side of the planet. My DIY effort pales in comparative joy to that of the winners entry though... 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Albert Tatlock Posted September 24 Share Posted September 24 10 hours ago, Wilc Os said: Official winner of the cover art for Hot Sun Cool Shroud has been announced today. Winner was an adorable young girl named Clementine who was interviewed by Jeff, which was posted to social media yesterday. I hope she sees some royalties from her efforts, her work is bound to increase sales! That’s a better cover than practically any previous Wilco release - so much for all those so called creative teams involved before. Wonder if they’ll have copyright issues from the manufacturers of the other stickers that have been used though . . . 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

This is so much better than the one they chose. I guess I'm in the minority here, but I think the one they chose is hideous. And it's going to look even more chaotic on the CD.

Hideous is a strong critique! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Brian F. Posted September 24 Share Posted September 24 Am I supposed to grade it on a curve? I think it's a mess. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Madcap Posted September 24 Share Posted September 24 I prefer a cleaner art design on albums, but kudos to the band for saying fuck it and going for chaos mode! 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The collection of songs on this EP is the closest to chaotic that Wilco has come for a long time. I think the winning cover is well suited to the music contained within. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If they couldn't choose mine (well I had stamped it with my "Fuck Trump" stamp several times) then Clementine's was a deserving 2nd choice. I love Wilco-O's version too! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
