It is hard to argue that a vinyl LP is definitely up there in being one of our culture’s most classic pieces of plastic.

‘Classic Plastic’ is also the name of a Britpop style band who are just completing their debut EP, ‘Classic Plastic’. The guys approached me about doing an album cover for them early last year, yet time being time and artists being artists, the recording and cover are only in their finalization stages right now.

I was picking through my recent images when I found the first concept for the cover. It is not approved by the rest of the band, so don’t go falling in love with it just yet. I’m just posting to show a little bit of scope in what I do, have done and can do!

Enjoy!

Not bad, eh?

I did play around with surface textures too, allowing the text to be the surface of the record, yet despite the concept being wonderful, the manifestation was a little disappointing.

Well, let’s see how the band likes it! To hear their music, see http://classicplastic.bandcamp.com/
