Ito 2438 Posted April 13, 2016 Perhaps this might be a thread better suited to the Jrock fans that have been around for a while, but I figured this could be a bit fun... Back when I was first getting in to Japanese music (i.e. downloading), high quality album art scans weren't the most plentiful things in the world. Often the cover art I would have would be 200px x 200px, if not smaller...or maybe even just a crop from a poorly taken digital photo. Thinks have come a long way from then, and now it's far less a problem. But I have had the fun experience of now getting to look at new covers in new light lol. I figured it would be fun to share the albums that we were confused by that we finally understood upon seeing a higher res scan (or heaven forbid having actually seen the cover in person). I'll start it off. Dir en Grey - Vulgar I always thought that these were arms - which I don't think I'm wrong on. But I though they were more human and attached to shoulders. Now I feel like what I used to think was some sort of shoulder pad is actually the arm being cut off? girugamesh - 13's reborn Well then....I never noticed that baby in there... Rentrer en Soi - Amongst Foolish Enemies I was never able to make out what this cover was suppose to be of. At least now I can tell it's a person. Still a fucking awful cover though 7 paradoxal, emmny, beni and 4 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nullmoon 784 Posted April 13, 2016 I would LOVE to know what's going on with the Vulgar cover. Not knowing is a curse which plagues me every day. 1 Seimeisen reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
