Great album deserves a great cover, matches perfectly with the music. Now obviously off-topic, but we're talking art here, I was wondering if we could learn something about your collaboration with Emigre Magazine. Issue #61 included a CD by The Grassy Knoll (well, you), titled "Happily Ever After", which is plain awesome and full of great atmospheric pieces. The CD should definitely qualify as a The Grassy Knoll album. It would be great to understand what went into making this record, for me personally, it was a "gateway drug" into into your music.

Agreed! Love all the details like the rubber band. Also, that Kim Gordon song is mwah! Chef's Kiss!
