An experimentation that took both a lot of work and a lot of new techniques, I'm pretty confident that I have captured how the album is to me, personally.
This is both my first of three Animal Collective boxes and my first Kickstart boxart. You'll see several other boxes from me in the coming weeks - from Majora's Mask to two boxes from my past recreated to my personal standards, I'll be posting lots just for Kickstart!
Other than that - if you haven't listened to any Animal Collective - give them a chance. Just listen through the whole Merriweather album as a starting point, and then try Strawberry Jam and Water Curses - once you get a feel for them and really get into it, they are one of the best bands out there (in my opinion).
Wrapping this up - I hope you guys like it - any comments, favourites or critiques are appreciated :)

I love this. It's a shame VGBA might overlook it as it's a music box :(

VGBA overlooks alot of things nowadays.
Besides, how much as anyone likes attention nowadays, it's not the most important aspect of the site.
Recognition is cool and all that, but I prefer one very well-constructed comment on one of my boxes, telling me why they feel my box is good or bad over 200 faves any day.

@Ayron Yeah, agreed - as long as its appreciated by the few that leave a comment/favourite, then I don't mind :)

This is a little too much on the ''too little comments''-side, though.
Come on people!

Made some minor adjustments that were annoying me:
- Title glow lowered and blended
- Title logo removed from back

Yeah, its okay. I don't know why but there is something not quite right about it. :(
