Blonde Redhead – Fake Can Be Just As Good

Art was constructed over a weekend with Kazu Makino. Pictures of the band were taken with an early digital camera she had got in Japan. It was just over 600k pixels. Some scraps of cloth were used for the textures. The low res, by today’s standards, digital camera engendered the images with a unique and edgy quality that the band was looking for. Text was manipulated with an analog copier that was on it’s last legs.

The A and B on the labels were designed by Simone Pace, the drummer and percussionist.
