Cover art is probably one of the least essential ingredients in the making of a successful album. And yet, it's always strangely satisfying to buy a record and find that the artist has managed to capture the essence of their record via a simple insert. Salient examples include the chaos of Pavement's Slanted and Enchanted or the ethereal nature of Sigur Rós' Agætis Byrjun.
It is no secret that outstanding leadership in athletics is a crucial element in achieving the greatest potential success for a team. The Badger men's hockey team has discovered early this season that tremendous dividends can be gained in quality, not quantity.

Xenophobia has arrested the ears of pop music. Today, most bands would rather manufacture albums for pre-sold audiences of bumping grinders, emo-whiners or vacuous bubblegum brains than recreate their music. Why change their tune when a parrot in an echo-chamber still goes platinum?
