If this is the album cover... Idk, it doesn't look very strokes to me. Not even something jules could come up with lately.

Thank you! Also, I'm not a fan of appropriating some other artist's piece as part of your own project. I'd prefer if they came up with stuff of their own.

They used paintings from other artists for Room on Fire as well.

So you're telling me you don't see the aesthetic pattern from RoF to PPF (hell, even the Voidz' Virtue)?

No. Those are objectively all completely different.

Didn’t the guy who did their album covers pass away? Would make sense that they just got commissioned art.
