If you are referring to those that instantly labeled the two girls as "slags" then I totally agree with you.

Of course there is, and there's a massive gap in the middle.

Having said that, I do think 'Monika' is a child sex worker, the bruises on her back on one of the pictures seem genuine and intentionally made.

Huh? I'm almost certain they're temporary marks made from "cupping", which is a type of alternative therapy.

Could be that either. They just reminded me of a picture of Gwyneth Paltrow that was in all the papers a few years ago when she had that treatment:

I thought that too. She's meant to be 22 isn't she, so not a child in any case.

Same here. That's the first thing that popped into my head when i saw it. I really like Aestivate's ideas on the album cover too. I've never really been much of an arty person, apart from drawing cartoons involving my cats. It's good to see that someone's done their homework and i'm grateful that it was shared!

I think there's definitely a divide, but it's not necessarily male/female. From what i've noticed at various manics gigs, there's always been two main types of people in the crowd... the ones who actually listen to the lyrics and understand them, and the ones who think the bridge to A Design For Life is about them, and sing it proudly.

Maybe Freaks vs Wankers?! heh. Probably not...maybe i'm just being facetious?!

Just got a canadian import of SATT this morning.The Booklet is printed on glossy paper and the colours are much more vivid. The artwork is identical to the british release, except fr the 'REDINK' Logo on the CD and Back.

I love the booklet being printed on uncoated paper though. And it smelt lovely!

I've ordered the Jap import for the extra tracks, i think i should just about be able to resist the temptation of the glossy cover on the canadian release. However I'm tempted by the vinyal even though theres no logical reason as i don't even own a record player.

That first post was meant to be light-hearted, I didn't mean to offend anyone. It's still a shit album cover though.
