Yes, Travis Smith makes the best covers. I'm a fan of his work.

 

[Bambi]

travis smith is a load of balls

 

[zupi_clone]

vaughan oliver was the man, peter saville another, and todays dirk rudolph, pisses all over the mckeans and shallow photoshop smiths

i looked at some of saville's work. very nice things there, some of them at least.
but you can't compare it to travis smith, it's a totally different style

And who gives a fuck, I'm talking 'bout motherfuckin' Falco and shit!

CD cover, illustration, I'm talking about style I like, if it's a rip off, who cares? I like it. I like it cause it's a rip off and twenties woeful typography, yes.

the problem with smith is that he is repetetive

 

[Bastet]

you're right, maqus, there's no accounting for tastes.
who's gonna tell you you're wrong and he/she is right when it comes to liking something

more artists tend to be repetitive

ah ffs, lets get one thing cleared here, peter saville is a designer, smith is an illustrator, its not just covers peter savilles work ends with, pfff

look at vaughan oliver, early 80's , no floppshop, just pure self intuition and emotional response to sound, i fucking know right!

besides, smith is just another one of many bastardised dave mckeans, if you want to see whats 'now' in this area, Dirk Rudloph would be a start

 

[zupi_clone]

well depends what you call 'artists' . painters? illustrators? well most have a similar visual vocabulary in their work, on the other hand, thing is these days, someone picks up a pirate copy of floppyshop, calls themselves a designer, in the wrong hands with no foundation, chaos, ah it looks good this will do, slap a bit of 'default' typeset on it and it will be grand

education and awareness, common sense really
