So after finding out what the-album-that-somehow-comes-up-in-every-comment-thread was called, the only outstanding issue was: how exactly do you visually conceptualize a Veckatimest? I figure either you incorporate imagery of the namesake uninhabited isle, or create sort of a hand-drawn collage of various geometric shapes rendered in pastels and earth tones to capture the breadth of emotion and mood-spanning mystery conjured by the title's syllabic string. Oh I guess the latter.
Nailed it. The LP cover comes from our friends at P4K. Ed tells us the artist is William O'Brien, the font was a hand drawn recreation by Amelia Bauer, and that the layout design was executed by Ben Tousley.
Here's your properly sequenced tracklist:
01 "Southern Point"
02 "Two Weeks"
03 "All We Ask"
04 "Fine for Now"
05 "Cheerleader"
06 "Dory"
07 "Ready, Able"
08 "About Face"
09 "Hold Still"
10 "While You Wait for the Others"
11 "I Live With You"
12 "Foreground"
"Two Weeks" as track two, "Foreground" as the epilogue. Clever girl, Grizzly Bear. Veckatimest is out 5/26 via Warp. Some details to be had in this Progress Report.
The Veckatimest Island wiki is having a really good traffic year.
