Every now and again, I'll run across an album that will completely win me over with the sleeve art alone. When 2013 drew to a close, I ran across a top 10 album covers list and discovered this band and album.
The artwork is painting titled "Pilot 2" and was done by Michael Kagan in 2010.
The music itself is pretty rewarding also... the album is about a couple that moves to the city. It sorta reminds me of Depeche Mode at times and but its delivery is a little more grandiose.
My favorite track on the album is called "There Goes Our Love Again"
