Artist: Gnarls Barkley
Release: The Odd Couple
Label: ???
Designer: Siggi Eggertson
Release Date: April 2008

Haven’t actually seen the design credit but am 100% positive that this is Siggi Eggertson’s work. I’ve been a fan of Siggi’s for some time now and it’s always exciting to see others find him and his work. Given the amount of artwork floating around for Gnarls’ first album I have no idea if the is the actual cover design… one could hope. I have to thank Alex at Pink Ring for bringing this to my attention.

Label: Warner Bros/WEA
Designer: Matt Taylor (art direction and design)
Release Date: August 14, 2007

With the dawn of the digital market, it makes sense that art would accommodate its demands. This is a great opportunity for designers to develop themes through variations of the cover (I believe the blue-leaning cover is the online version). In the online version we see a new perspective on the “city of sound” motif that was started with the print cover.
