New Album Cover suggestion

Having gotten so close to the eventual artwork with my design for JFPL, I decided to have a crack at what the new album cover might look like. Had a long think about the design and this is what I've come up with. Hopefully you can see the deliberate mirroring back to TIMTTMY.



Thoughts? Opinions?

Nice! What font did you use, if you don't mind my asking? And as I don't have my copy right in front of me, is it the exact same one on TIMT (it's definitely very very similar).

...I only ask because I may or may not have been making some parodies of album covers recently and had trouble finding one that really matched TIMT in my collection. It's going to be something ridiculously easy that everyone has, isn't it.

It's the Everything Must Go font. But yeah, see the font link in the above post.
