REPURPOSING ITALIAN FUTURISM FOR THE LATEST IN POST-ROCK/ EXPERIMENTAL SOUNDS.
PIC(S) INFO: Spotlight on the now iconic poster art by Italian Futurist Fortunato Depero for the 1932 exposition Futurismo Trentino, later repurposed by graphic artist Peter Saville of Factory Records for NEW ORDER's 1981 debut album "Movement."
Resolution from largest to smallest: 1479x818, 1060x1078, & 790x790.
NEW ORDER
"Movement" / FACT 50
(Factory Records, 1981)
SLEEVE ART OVERVIEW: "Already prominent in NEW ORDER's early singles "Procession" and "Everything’s Gone Green," Saville turned to Italian futurism, and specifically Fortunato Depero’s poster for the 1932 exposition "Futurismo Trentino" for inspiration. Clean lines and strong typography had been visible from 1979’s "A Factory Sample," but here Saville imbued each stroke with veiled meaning, subtly adapting Depero’s design. Putting the album’s FAC. 50 matrix number front and centre, the cover is built around the "F" for Factory and "L," Roman numeral for 50, the light blue background of the UK release chosen by the band."

Kintsugi is the art of decorating your scars with pieces of Agni.
In the Fire Nation, the amount of golden marks are a sign of status. Only the Royal Family can afford to seal every single wound with Kintsugi. Such is the weight of this tradition that, among the ones with Agni's blood, it is the highest mark of dishonor to have a natural scar, for it proves you aren't worthy of the privilege.
After the Agni Kai, Ozai forbid Zuko's scar to be sealed with Kintsugi. The boy wasn't worth his title, his traditions or his pride. Zuko would be broken, but he wouldn't be beautiful. Not anymore.
(And sometimes it's easier to pretend he never was)

MOTÖRMUSIC MEETS THE BLITZ-PUNK SOUNDS OF THE SUPER-SEVENTIES.
PIC(S) INFO: Spotlight on the numbered edition (out of 666 copies) of the "Over the Top" 7 inch single by MOTÖRDAMN, released under the UK's Devils Jukebox Records in 2007.
EXTRA INFO: THE DAMNED performing with Lemmy Kilmister of MOTÖRHEAD under the name "THE DOOMED," c. 1978-'79. They later released a single in '79 under the name "MOTÖRDAMN."
"I thought of us more as a punk band than a metal band, we had more in common with THE DAMNED than with JUDAS PRIEST or something like that."
-- LEMMY when asked about MOTÖRHEAD being the only metal band accepted by punks
