Gatefold vinyl. Please. The inside of the gatefold should have the NotM cover on the left and the JD cover on the right. The outer gatefold should have one overall cover for Powers that B as a whole (a Sua Yoo character with the JD ribbon gun to their head would be fucking amazing) and a tracklist or something on the back. I would buy multiple copies.

what if the physical release was just a blank cd or a sticker-less vinyl? they let the music speak for itself. can you imagine going out to pick up the newest death grips album and it's just a record laying there all vulnerable and open

You know the way you look at The Money Store's cover and feel a thousand times more in-tune with the music inside and what they are trying to do? I think The Powers that B needs a cover that perfectly summarizes everything Death Grips is about and makes you feel the music in your gut when you look at it. A blank disc or album cover would be too similar to what others have done to really capture that essence. If I had to say, I think it'd be great to take it back to the beginning. Make the cover the picture of that bird eating the other bird from the first shot of Full Moon. I think that cover would say, "We've been preaching our own funeral this whole time."

I've done some research, crunched some numbers, and narrowed the list down to see just who could be running this greenbrix twitter. Here are my results. - Zach Hill - Stefan Burnett - Andy Morin - Christian Oldham - Mexican Girl - Daniel Baldus - Hillary Clinton - Jack Nicholson - Kendrick Lamar - My Dad - Barack Obama - Kim Jong Un - Any of Mitt Romney's sons - My High School math teachers (collectively) - Stefan Burnett's Dad - A dog who has made a series of incredibly precise accidental keystrokes while absent-mindendly walking across the keyboard - Guillermo Del Toro - A guy whose parents actually named him greenbrix- literally anyone - Kim Kardashian I think that covers all of it, I think we're getting close to figuring this whole shebang out.

Pretty much every song on there just pops into the next one, you won't have that if you have to turn the record over and it would not surprise me one bit if Jenny Death started out like the end of Big dipper, that would be fucking sick,

All this stuff about July 12th... we'll know these accounts are bullshit when nothing happens on July 12th.
Is it even a full moon or anything like that?

Not just a full moon, but a Super Moon on the 12th.

Pretty sure there isn't a retrograde on the 12th. At least not for Mercury.
