Babyteeth back cover

#

Started by Alan

Am I the only one who thinks that the guy being “thrown” on the back cover of Babyteeth looks like Fyfe????

Don’t ask me why, I’ve just always thought that.

Maybe it’s the baseball cap!? :p

Thank God for that - I’m not a psycho stalker! :p

As for where it’s from, I’ve no idea.

I’d love to know where the back sleeve of Pleasure Death comes from as well - that’s one sick-ass picture!

Maybe Rene could ask Andy?? ;)

Yeah, it looks like he’s going to throw the kid clear across the room!

It’s an eery, violent picture that I guess was included as a reference to the lyrical content of “Skinning Pit”, i.e., child abuse.

I think it’s a still from a film, but that’s just a guess.

I thought that it was Andy at first, but I don’t think so now.

The kid in the picture looks genuinely terrified :eek:
And I don’t think Therapy? would go to such extremes for a picture, that’s why I think it’s from a film.

Anyone else have any ideas?

Sarah, can you ask Michael about the back sleeves of BT / PD ?

It’s been 7 years since I asked, but I still wanna know :-)

The front covers are done by a NI artist called George H Smyth - some done some very cool artwork. I think the back cover might be a scene from Goodfellas - the spoken sample in Skinning Pit is from the film

I would guess that they are weird stock photos or maybe messed-up film stills.

Back of Pleasure Death looks a bit like it could have been edited… the guy’s head doesn’t look like it belongs to the body, maybe the kid is from another picture too. This could just be because of the way it was printed.

Perhaps Babyteeth is something similar? If you rotate it then the thrown man almost looks to be in a natural pose.
