I think the new logo is really good! The slanted A's and Vs are probably copywrited by the old record label and with this record being "a new lease of life" for the band, im guessing that means a new identity on the artwork too.
Its certainly a stunning piece of work, and i for one would like to congratulate Fran and the boys on another great piece of stuff! Its rare in these days of Digitalism that a band actually gives a monkeys over the physical copy, and Travis certainly seem to be going the right way!
WELCOME BACK LADS!!!! |

| Very strange but kind of awesome too. I think this is a big hint about the album cover. Very much the sort of thing i've been expecting since the start of the year. I really like the writing too. |

Oooo. I like it! It's different. This is all so exciting!!!!
But I'm also very sad to see the "TRAVIS" font gone. I really, really hope that the record company didn't have rights to that. What kind of crap is that?!
Fran? No more slanted "AV" in Travis? Or is it just for this particular cover maybe? |

I think they want to give it another turn to the new Travis, and they using a new font, which is always good. Even if we miss the "AV" thing.
But this new look more serious, static, and even mysterious in company of the image, i think it's brilliant, ang a great great job.
I like the new Travis, and the new things, cant' wait to see/hear everything :) |

Ben- This is what I said..."But I'm also very sad to see the "TRAVIS" font gone. I really, really hope that the record company didn't have rights to that. What kind of crap is that?!"
I'm not calling the artwork crap...I said I liked it! I'm saying it's crap if the old record label has rights over the band's logo or the font they use.

| It's a heart with two holes in it. At least that's what I see. That's why it's so cool...you can make it whatever you want. It's art! :) |
