It opens inside a painted world, pushes through the glass into the desert night where the title was written in light, and then holds up the record itself — the sleeve, the seal pressed into the card, photographs from the booklet, a page of the song’s own lyrics, and the disc.
02The record
Beautiful Pain came out in 2013 on Best Revenge Records — a real record with a real package: a printed booklet, a seal on the card, and a disc in a tray. It has been restored from the original masters, and it is out now on every platform.
03The package
Every image here comes off the 2013 package itself, scanned at six hundred dots per inch — the sleeve, the tray, the booklet and the seal.
