Hey, a second commission sharing post in one day? It’s more likely than you’d think. This one is by the artist Sinizade on Twitter (you can scan the QR Code, or click HERE!), and it features Abigail and Olivia on an in-universe magazine cover promoting their first single off of their upcoming third album. The song is called “Not Your Nymphet!” and is loosely based on the novel “Lolita” by Vladimir Nabokov, but it’s sung from the perspective of Dolores Haze. I went into this whole thing with the idea of the song, and Sinizade helped bring the vague elements (like the broken iconography of the movie versions of the book) into a proper cover image. I wasn’t even sure about the angle she chose, but it ended up looking stellar in my opinion. I actually wanted to make something involving this concept for a while, but didn’t think I’d commission a magazine cover. It forced me to make the band name (VANDOLLZ), and the name of a publication in universe (Guerilla Radio), and to properly name the song and album (”Not Your Nymphet!” and “Burnt Books Make Burnt People” respectively). I just wanted to make something like an album cover with the imagery of the broken Sunglasses, Lollipop, and Scrunchie... as if they were broken by Dolores herself. I’m going on and on about what this is because I put a lot of thought into the symbolism and the meaning behind the song, and the album name. The song is because a lot of people don’t really get the point of Lolita, at least in my view, and I wanted to focus on the fact that Dolores was a victim in the story, and how stuff like the Sunglasses symbolize the skewed view of the story. The Album Title came about because of the quote  "Where they burn books, so too will they in the end burn people" by German writer Heinrich Heine. He was a writer that would later have his own work burned by Nazis, save for a single poem that would be republished without his name attached by the Nazis. It struck me as a good quote. I have a few more ideas based on banned/challenged books that factor into the album, though some of those books will be more contested than others. They’ll usually have some sort of spin on them though. I actually have a second commission from Sinizade in the works right now, so look forward to that if you like this one, and go follow her on her socials.
