THE ALBUM COVER BLOG

This blog is inspired by a good friend of mine who's into vinyl and is an artist. When we're talking shop, we always wonder who's the artist behind the covers or the photographers. Those conversations got the ball moving toward this project. The album covers are just as important and part of the experience as the music. If you dig anything on the blog, be sure to go out, support the artists, along with the hard work that they put in into creating their concepts.
