DEATH FROM ABOVE 1979 - YOU’RE A WOMAN, I’M A MACHINE -


I remember buying this record after hearing through the store sound system, but not before I had seen the cover. In this case (as if to back up the logic of my question) the E.P. cover was an integral part of me buying the record. Apart from being a particular favourite of mine, this artwork again really supports the sound and principle of the music. It’s important to me that a member of the band also did the design, I am not implying that that is a necessity, just that it give the whole package a much more home grown feeling. I feel that this graphic really influenced a lot of my work when I was younger and that, in partnership with the music has made this I very iconic record in its genre.
