Simian: Chemistry is What We Are

What I love about this cover is how the identity was carried across throughout all the other releases. They are dark yet appealing at the same time. Like a twisted kids fairy tale. All credit to Thomas Grunfeld who created the original creatures featured on the cover. They are from his series called Misfits which you can find more info here.

This was produced by Big Active by art director Mat Maitland who was responsible for Beck’s The Information.

Simian has since split up to pursue other musical interests but at least they have this beautiful series of sleeves to remind them of the good times.

  • The etymology of astrology is found in the Greek 'astrologia,' and is the amalgamation of two Greek words - astron, which means star - and logos, which means study. Astrology simply means studying the stars. Astrology has been known to the peoples of the ancient world for more than 5,000 years, and had been used to study how the celestial bodies affect the events, and the lives of people, on Earth. Tradition has it that astrology originated in ancient Babylon and ancient Mesopotamia before 2000 BC.
