Acquaintances – Acquaintances

Indie-rock supergroup LP only release that came with a CD. The inner sleeves are die cut to let the skulls look out. The inner sleeve consists of full color photos that are covered in black. The effect is subtle but successful, though it doesn’t photograph well. Buying a copy will allow you to see the full effect. All the photos are by band member Stephen Schmidt.

“All the photos were taken at my former employer “Orlandi Statuary” which is an old (over a century) Chicago family statue/mold making business. Coming down stairs to the factory floor you’d almost always find some kind of striking image of weird things (unintentionally) stacked or arranged in interesting ways.” – Stephen Schmidt Acquaintances, Chino Horde
