when's it really out? graun review was past friday, which usually means i should be able to get it now

[chezghost.livejournal.com]

it's the limited edition 'fanclub' cover i think.

Not 100% sure about Sarah's choice of eyeshadow there but yes, definite improvement :)

well I liked the other one, but this is grebt too

[jeff-worrell.livejournal.com]

it screams 80s 12" single sleeve to me actually

[blue-russian.livejournal.com]

i quite like it, although jeff is right about 12" single sleeve

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

Yes! It's the font I think. I'm thinking Journeys To Glory era Spandau, or Ultravox's "Hymn"

Nicola doesn't seem to be quite so 'tangled up' on that cover...

[jauntyalan.livejournal.com]

and i think some new order stuff (but i might be imagining it)

[mippy.livejournal.com]

it's the Bondage, Up Yours version of late-90s George Michael artwork...

Spandau was exactly who I was thinking of

It *is*, isn't it? Though GA's attire (while correctly androgynous) is a little too spartan for the era. Still, magnificent.

LOVE the color-coding via eyeshadow thing.

Only because the baseline was set so low! I think this looks really cheap, just not quite as nondescript as the mass market version.

I think it would totally miss the point for a Girls Aloud album to look 'expensive'? I would like to argue about this!

OK, a certain accessibility is part of their charm. But there's a world of difference between not looking unattainable, and looking cheap and trashy in a bad way.
