Our artwork explained:
We asked a number of bands to each give us a random word, from which we would choose three to illustrate our cover. In the end we chose tricot, MOMA and Atlantis Airport for their words, 'exploding', 'sun' and 'katana', respectively. We then gave the words to a talented Japanese artist, Chiki (ちき), for her to improvise a drawing.

Chiki's artwork is truly amazing. The word 'exploding' is incorporated into the cover as a bursting of bodies, alluding to the de-compartmentalised yet fleshy and organic nature of math music. The word 'katana' is represented by the flower 'Hibiscus mutabilis'. This particular flower is tough like a sword, and its species name, 'mutabilis', means 'changeable', another allusion to math music. Finally, the sun shines across the piece and signifies illumination of form.

This work embodies twists and turns with each song. Great buildups, great cut off points, atmospheric, heavy as well as bright all throughout. After many listens this album encapsulates math-rock/post-punk/post-rock exceptionally well. humongouslomghonogoufungus

All the different riffs and emotions conveyed by them really made me feel something, but right at the end of Salad it's when I truly felt something spectacular and could not contain my emotion. Beautiful work. It needs more listeners. blueberry2001
