to rococo rot .cd

I was digging through a bin of CDs in my office over the weekend and was reminded of this 1996 release by to rococo rot. It’s always been one of my favorite album covers and though I quit buying CDs many years ago, I hold onto this one because of the art.

Suede – Coming Up
I honestly don’t think I’ve ever listened to the album but I always remember that cover art. :)

Origin Of Symmetry by Muse. It is everything I am. Vivid colours contrasting with the stark monochrome. I listened to it every day for a year when I was 13.
