I love this cover for GOS.
The less you know about an artist, the more you might be likely to form a summary opinion based on the album art. If you like the artist already and know his material, it's not going to make a bit of difference.

True, but honestly, I'd like him to give the album a CHANCE! We've seen MANY great pictures of Lindsey:

This cover was great:



and any of these pictures would work:













even something OBSCURE would be better:


(tusk!)

Of course, the album being Gift of Screws, the most logical album covers would be:

1. A picture of Emily Dickinson (assuming Lindsey's GOS pose)

2. A picture of screws, all tied up in a gift bow.

I love the cover. It's so Lindsey. It is called "Gift of Srews" after all. I think it's fitting. I cannot wait for this album to come out!

I've been thinking about the idea someone posed that LB was trying to recreate Law and Order here. If he was, I consider it a half-hearted attempt until he takes his shirt off!
