This is one my my favorite blur albums but this is quite possibly the worst cover art I've ever seen.

i imagine this cover art was created because blur themselves hate The Great Escape, especially Damon. Damon himself said the album was messy, uneven and overproduced, and along with Leisure was one of the two bad albums he had made. i think this reflects in the cover. i love TGE, but compared to what Damon has made with Gorillaz in the past few years and Coxon’s solo stuff, TGE probably isn’t looked back on very fondly by them.

Please don’t release this great album with this disgraceful artwork. It’s actually disrespectful.

Was this the designer's first collage? Also not the AI for the houses, if your client is against AI, Do. Not. Use. Ai, simple. Should be decent graphic design ethic

I love you blur, and I understand that it may not be AI, but couldn't you pick a better cover to represent The Great Escape? </3

I know you guys hate this album for some reason but can't you at least give it an actually good cover art?

Another comment mentioned the word disgraceful, and that pretty much hit the nail on the head for this “artwork”
