I think it's a good album cover outside of the context of it being a Jane's album cover (the same way I feel about IF).

The Strays album cover is terrible, regardless of context.

I stopped caring about album art when cd's kinda died out and everything became mp3's...its not bad...could be worse (see Strays)...reminds me of the animation in Coraline...as far as it being JA as it relates to their previous covers, while I dug the Ritual and NS covers its always the MUSIC that is the bottom line anyways...

I wanna get my hands on vinyl of XXX, NS, Ritual and either Live and Rare or KW and frame them in long tall wall hanging.. I'd have them open so the back and front covers are showing but i'd need to cut them up so the front is on the left and the back on the right.. or maybe high quality scans...

Anyway, I KNOW that strays wouldn't make the cut of albums to frame. EVER. I doubt this one will either..

yah the tracklising on that eats nuts..

* Mountain Song
* Ain't No Right
* Jane Says
* Stop
* Just Because
* Everybody's Friend
* Wrong Girl
* Had A Dad
* Ocean Size
* True Nature
* Been Caught Stealing
* Classic Girl

This must-have collection presents a dozen of Jane's best, from the groundbreaking Ritual De Lo Habitual, to the Kettle Whistle compilation of live tracks and demos, up through Strays, their first all-new record in more than a decade. Features note-for-note transcriptions of Dave Navarro's searing guitar work on: Ain't No Right • Been Caught Stealing • Classic Girl • Everybody's Friend • Had a Dad • Jane Says • Just Because • Mountain Song • Ocean Size • Stop • True Nature • Wrong Girl.

No sense putting Trip Away, Whores, 1%, My Time on there.. sigh...

No more than the woman who demands that legendary songs about Casey are not played.

1. i like it for most of the reasons previously discussed.
2. although sometimes album art is good, I've never cared much about it. it's all about the music, and the music on these two albums sounds equally good.

3. etty has a really nice tuchus.
4. casey says perry's cock wasn't that big. etty likes 'em big. etty has has had tit augmentation surgery. perry's cock on this album is big. maybe perry has had cock augmentation surgery. discuss.

Have to say that Etty's got a really nice ass. So much so that I wouldn't mind seeing it a bit closer...

The album cover itself looks very early 90s. It's like a JA version of the cover of P4P's debut. It's got some of that same vibe. It's obviously about escaping the chains of the mind – and fucking etty (of course).

Can't agree with that. Jane's 1.0 was an all-enveloping sensory experience. It was not about skimping on any front. Truly great album art both informs and compliments the music, and vice versa. It can actually change the way that the music is thought about and experienced, just like their live performance style did.

We don't experience any one sensory thing in a vacuum. We might think we do, but we do not. To believe so would be giving short shrift to the complexities of our minds.

I respectfully disagree

In the album, her ass looks ok. It's the ass of a girl who's not fat at all. Look closer, and you'll see an ass that looks old and sad.

Also, I could bet Perry is the smallest penis Etty has ever had. And that's a problem for him. Poor Perry.

This is getting a little silly. No harm in making fun of the clay schlong, but a lot of this is beginning to go over the line that was established when this site was made. I don't want to go all ES here, but this thread is turning into a juvenile cesspool.

are you talking about the discussion of Perry's wang and Etty's ass?

Both of which are on the cover you know.
