Fiona Apple's album cover is the craziest thing yet

by

comment

Continuing her theme of sloooowly releasing tidbits of info on her Facebook page, Fiona Apple today posted the album art for her upcoming release, The Idler Wheel Is Wiser Than the Driver of the Screw and Whipping Cords Will Serve You More Than Ropes Ever Will Do—and it's weird!---

No haunting/wryly amused Fiona Face here, and not even any flowers that look like teeth. Nope, this is some straight-up crazy doodle shit that looks like the elaborate stuff I used to draw during class/sacrament meeting—but if I'd had some artistic skills like perspective, a few more markers, hours more time and mind-altering drugs.

I'm somewhat charmed by the Sharpie effect of her name and album title, but isn't that Sharpie look a few years old? Any youngsters who can chime in here?

UPDATE
this and get the music in your head when you see the word update)

01 Every Single Night
02 Daredevil
03 Valentine
04 Jonathan
05 Left Alone
06 Werewolf

(I hope track No. 6 doesn't mean that Fiona has been reading Twilight)
