Is this true? Does this mean they're pretty please changing those god-awful elementary school art project "covers"?

I can't believe that they're actually going through with those covers. How is Japan so graphic design challenged? There is literally NOTHING redeeming about the covers. Like, literally every single aspect of them makes them entirely awful. People keep saying "the typography is so bad!!!" and like, yeah, the typography is bad, but it's the LEAST of what makes the covers atrocious. lol.

idk I just legitimately can't believe a professional company of avex's caliber is putting this out. You can so tell they don't expect this album to sell, so they aren't putting any effort into it. It's not even a throwaway at this point. It's like they knew they had to sell SOMETHING and didn't want to, so they just scooped a pile of cat shit out of a litter box and put a price tag on it. What a terrible strategy for a music business. If you want something to sell, then you have to DO BETTER and MAKE IT WORK and improve your product so that people will actually want to buy it. You don't just give up and throw anything out and degrade your own product in the process. They're only going to end up killing off any potential the album did have for selling and chase off her remaining fan base in the long run.

No wonder this company is in such a hole. They are literally clueless.

^all of this because of the cover?

Tom Punks

^ Um, yes, and the fact that the "album" is just a compilation of her singles and b-sides thrown together with a new song.

But that notwithstanding, the covers alone are awful enough for me to say avex seriously needs to get their shit together. They are hands down the worst covers I've ever seen from so-called professionals.

I think this can affect you if you buy every single from her, but the people usually buy more albums than singles.
And I like a lot of the songs, I mean, new songs can be crap only to fill the album.

The "WHO'S BACK?" covers are so beautiful, I love them! If there was one cover that would be my absolute favorite, it would totally be the CD only. I love BoA's look in both covers, as well. She's looking so gorgeous! :heart

The tracklist looks pretty good, too. :) I think it would be much better if more than just one new song was included, but I've loved all the songs/singles BoA's released over these past few years! So I don't mind it so much. :) I can't wait to listen to "First Time" & I'm totally looking forward to watching the PV!

I don't have real info, but I think:

-It's going to be part of the fanclub edition of the album
-Or is a new single
