Cheapo CD packaging..

[reeling_around]

It's really disappointing that the CDs are so cheap looking.. They look like something that an unsigned band may have put out after banging something together in Powerpoint... The whole ATTACK thing across the CD itself just looks nasty as well.. Shame.

But the contents are great! Really enjoying the b-sides!

Well - personally I think the packaging is good. What's the word - Retro.

What were you expecting - it is only a single.

I just think that as a piece of artwork it looks incredibly cheap and nasty, like a high-school desktop publishing project. Even down to the mix of upper and lowercase surnames in the credits (i.e. Morrissey-Whyte is capitalised). Even the fact that there's only 1 main cover - normally double versions of singles have different covers..

Maybe it's just me..

But the b-sides are definitely brilliant! Top stuff! Can't wait to see if they play them live at any one of the next six gigs I'm going to see him at!

Yeah - actually I agree that there should have been two different covers for CD 1 and CD2. Has anyone noticed that Morrissey is looking a different way on the back of the 7" than on the back of CD 2 of the single?

I actually like the design, it's really..zappy. It looks especially good on the 7"
