on another unrelated note i think it is interesting that i found this poster which was obviously the inspiration for the lettering for the Black Belles

Image

seems like someone actually joked about the Black Belles being robots with replaceable parts at one point early on

Image

i would like to think that megbot would approve of this bit of factual relevance and reference

Very nice spot, I knew that font looked familiar, but could never quite place it.

I've had that metropolis poster (a cheap copy, not an original!) on my wall for about a year and didn't spot that...now I feel stupid.

Metropolis is one of Jack's favorite movies. He came up with their font too! Did these girls come up with anything on their own?

Did Jack come up with the image for the Dead Weather? Did he come up with the idea for the tri-color or liquid filled record? The image on Farm Fly Blues- How many album covers do you see of people sitting on a porch with a guitar? So what if they look to Jack for guidance; he did the same exact thing.

As for your username, look to the updated heading for the site. It might give you an idea of what kind of place this is.

The Horrors/Black Belles split 10"
http://www.roughtrade.com/albums/70718
Limited to 500. Exclusive split 10" featuring live versions of each artists' songs. All proceeds from the EP will be re-invested in the bands' local music communities to buy equipment to equip local rehearsal studios. The Horrors' homecoming gig in Southend was a landmark show of 2012 and their incredible version of "Still Life" included here is exclusive to this release. Tennessee band The Black Belles accompanied them on the day and their live version of "Wishing Well" is on the flip.

I may not be the biggest Belles fan, but I think I'm going to snag one of these.
