Now, I'm in no way shooting the messenger, FWD, but dear God that's dreadful. Why is he allowing this? It's as if he no longer cares. What a shame. The track actually sounds really good.

I don't mind the random use of old film stills - there's a wealth of great stuff out there to choose and hopefully, what does get used has some meaning to him that he's trying to convey to us.
The fonts & positioning of said though are just poor.

What's looking to be a record store day (maybe) exclusive is done far more tastefully even if the cover star does little for anyone:

Besides the Smiths covers which were labours of love - I enjoyed the Attack iconography and fonts probably more than anything recently.
I think Robert Mitchum deserves a bit more effort (the '45' in the corner is starting to annoy me!), but who are we to quibble?
To be kind: it's 'different'.
To be honest: it's not the best effort.
Regards,
FWD.

(I'm surprised PETA aren't chasing him for depicting horse cruelty by way of a movie about rodeos).

I remember a story by Jo Slee - I think it was recounted in "Peepholism" - about the time that Morrissey sacked one of the Smiths' art assistants for casually saying "These covers only take me a few minutes." That was it, gone the next day. Now he allows this laughable, so-bad-it's-got-to-be-a-pisstake design?

The bit I love is that little bit of T shirt they left while photoshopping his neck. Genius.The recent deluxe sleeve of the vinyl LIHS was well done but when I opened the gatefold there's a weird treatment on his photo that looks like a mistake.
Importantly The music is sounding great as you pointed out.
 
I feel as though the images aren't bad per say, I think what is displeasing are the typography/font choices that have appeared on more recent records. Long gone are the days of Times New Roman.
