Andrew Bird's New Album Art

Standard cover for "Noble Beasts", which I might like more for its simplicity:


And the special edition, which is more in the style of "Mysterious Production":


Now the only question is: which one do I want on vinyl? Quite possibly the special edition if only for the bonus instrumental song. Thank god I have until January 20th to decide. Listen to "Oh No," the single from "Noble Beast," here.

What a great day will be inauguration day!

CAN"T WAIT!

i already pre ordered my vinyl on the fat possum website. I dont know if its gonna be the special edition or the regular. I REEEEALLY like just the photo of the nature shot as the cover, its like Bird's eye view (pun intended) as a primal beast and gives off a very peaceful yet eerie mystique. LVEO IT LOVE IT LOVE IT.
they also say the 1st pressings will include a BONUS disc called Useless Creatures (instrumental tracks). hopefully the vinyl includes that too. AHHH what a good way to enter the new year
