BITBL010 – Sea of Storms – Demo 7″

My friend Brian over at (the now defunct store and label) In Vinyl We Trust released three 7″ records in just a few months. This was the last release he did, and (no offense to the others) is my favorite.

In case you have not noticed, I try to do something different on every cover I do. I really struggled to think of anything at all that might work with the existing cover art – and finally decided to keep it really simple. I ended up having to buy a ton of different paper to get this done like I wanted. Four different sheets of color were used and then a gray matboard to keep it all sturdy.

The resulting product turned out really nice (even if it did take me months to actually complete).

You can listen and download the whole EP for free, buy the vinyl in my store, and like them on Facebook. They are prepping a full-length album now too.

BITBL012 – Chris Staples – American Soft LP

Sorry for the delay in posting.

I actually did a brief ‘How To’ on this cover about a year ago. About time I posted the finished product.

Chris Staples was the lead singer of Twothirtyeight – one of my favorite bands in high school and college. American Soft is his third (?) full-length solo album, and the first to be released on vinyl.

I made five of these for Daniel over at Something to Break Records.

Gray mat board with black arches paper underneath the front. Each machine-numbered.

Buy the record on vinyl. Check out Chris Staples’ music.
