consistency, people!

If there's one thing that drives me crazy, it's inconsistency in single formatting. Even moreso than that, it's breaking a theme for a campaign part-way through...though in this case, I think it's safe to say they jumped ship for last release.

Anyways...

Both the 'Crocodile' and 'Beautiful Burnout' 12" packages had lovely leaf imprint themes that looked stunning on the format. So for the third UK 12" release, we get these ugly abstract boxes. Grr.

On the bright side, they put all 4 mixes on one 12" this time instead of spreading them out over 2, so bonus points for that. Speaking of, I should probably get around to listening to them at some point.

Speaking of artwork themes, I love the art for the Hercules & Love Affair releases - 'You Belong' arrived with 'Ring Road' and the bright, garish neon colors look wonderful in gigantic sleeves...and neon blue vinyl for the 7"! LOVE IT!
