The cover itself doesn't bother me, but it doesn't say "The Smashing Pumpkins" like the last three. It's just "Smashing Pumpkins" like the first two. Perhaps I'm reading too much into it.

I wonder is the Statue of Liberty wading in water is supposed to symbolize global warming and the melting of the polar ice caps. Maybe that's why their 7/7/07 show is at an enivronmental fundraiser. :p

yeah, thats what the blog on myspace implied.

Yeah, I knew it was going turn into some kind of political or environmental statement. Yet another reason that I will not like this album.

Aaron said that it looks like a Rage Against the Machine album cover.

[lime_sox]

yeah, that's what i thought.

I don't mind it being political... because i dont think it'll really come across obviously in the music like it does with rage or nin. unless billy has become blunt.

yuck, that's gross even by SP standards (i've always thought their album covers to be little more than functional).

[sweetlyric]

SP covers were more "whimiscal" I guess. This one's just so harsh.

Meh.
