Hmm. Not entirely convinced, but you make a strong argument!

 

Here I have highlighted the horizontal lines that stem from the compression artifacts. They are not parallel. The squares seem to be of the same size, though.

 

 

thats richard holding up the lp to his face lol

I'd be surprised if his face was the same size as the lp and parallel lol

Again, the biggest mystery - these are both professionally-printed (from an offset printing press) images - that's quite a bit of expense to go through just for a promotional image if they were not part of the actual packaging or related promotional imagery.

Are you seriously suggesting the aphex machine is in lack of money, sponsored or otherwise?

What about the bit of printer paper at the bottom that appears to say "…SINC…" in a serif font? Maybe we should speculate about that for 12 pages.

 

it definitely says SING not SINC so it's a sign that says BADGER CROSSING most likely

 

lol

Japan bonus track BADGER CROSSING (FLERBOBJUB KVER303 TENNISBALL MIX) confirmed

why would it be shrinkwrapped with the wrong barcode?

I always thought that barcode was just a placeholder.

i really don't think it's shrinkwrap

The plug in the picture is Euro, not UK.

The plastic wrap appears faked.

The stencil lacks the circle spanners such as that are found in the photographed sprayed logos (probably for plausible deniability but i digress)

I t might be.

If you look into his pupils, it appears to be the person taking the photo in front of him. Shadowy outline visible in both. Easier to see in his left eye.

Shit's gettin deep.

At what point in the process are the jpeg artifacts introduced, then?

Ummm... so I had a play around...

9.2.14? Maybe? September 2nd?

Just because one has money does not need one has to spend it all

I don't think the plastic wrap is "faked"

I think it's an intentional design feature, it seems to be some sort of distorted displayed text, the 3OO or whatever on the side as part of it

maybe a sort of reflected over water effect

Screw this.
When is the Steinvord digital release happening?

Is this a possible back cover leak? These are exciting times though for sure.

ANSWER THE QUESTION, SIR!

Because of the fire crackers?

I'm pretty sure the shrinkwrap and back cover are real, as in not pho'shoop, but real physical objects. The bar code being from another album suggests it's a fake though.

any thoughts on what the yellow habanero could mean? do you guys also think this will be a salsa album?

I think it may be just the top of the LP behind a second LP in foreground, bent in half. Like, we're not seeing whats in between his eyes and teeth, and this is a photo of two parts of the cover.

Ok my 2¢:

1. Joyrex is being coy about the barcode. I scanned it but some prince of darkness video game came up. Haven't been able to really figure out where those numbers lead.

2. The shrink wrap looks totally fake and maybe some artifacting from encoding something in that image? anyone want to try and "decode" or what ever like people were doing with the foldface?

3. we still don't know where that back cover image came from ... but papa seems to think it's legit so let's stick with it?

4. to me, fold face looks like richard is holding up an lp cover. the thickness of the curve, or fold line, looks exactly like the thickness of an lp and not a thin computer paper fold.
