Topshelf Records 2019 Reflections
posted December 4, 2019 #
Top Shelf Records recently posted this Twitter thread that runs down their ten releases for 2019 - each with a writeup from the individual bands and a unique collage culled from the album art to represent the release.
Even if you know nothing about Top Shelf Records (I count myself among the ignorant), this is a really brilliant exercise. Reworking album art into some new form as a means of reflecting on it with the perspective of time is something I wish I'd thought of. Bonus, the collages are great! They span a great deal of styles and, ideally, open up a little pathway to hear some new music.
