Wow, this is fascinating to me. I just can't see anything else than a child with a bowl cut(?).
And on this bigger version on the left side is his arm holding something (maybe a weapon of some sort, or a baseball bat... "Child Soldier").

Looks like you were right! The 'inverted' artwork is much easier to discern.

Lil Baby Greg on a swing??
she/her/hers
it looks like he's holding drumsticks, to me. or at least it used to, in the negative version.
now it looks like he's wearing a hoodie, so those are hoodie strings coming down from around his neck. no idea what that is off to the left, though.

If anyone hasn't seen or received the email regarding vinyl orders (within US):
Here’s a special message from the label:
Child Soldier: Creator of God has shipped from our manufacturer to our fulfillment partner in the US. These will start to ship out to you in the next few weeks! If you haven’t received yours by the middle of November, please reach out for shipping information. At this time, I don’t have any shipping information to provide and won’t until these start shipping out to you! -Steve
Saul Williams fan.
I never knew how much I needed this album in my life. Thank you, Greg.

The vinyl is currently shipping. I received my Revolver Magazine package yesterday.

Yep, got my Bandcamp order yesterday.
@Helpmeiaminhell - Covid screwed up pressing plant timelines and shipping -- vinyl pressing timelines in general are never an exact science. On top of that FP is a small unit and to ship out everything takes time.

CD is technically not out in America. Just ordered it from a record store on discogs which got an early shipment from FP.

If you ordered the clear vinyl, make sure to open your order right away. Sounds like Merch Connection (who is doing the distribution in the US) fucked up and a LOT of people who ordered clear are getting the less limited regular version. On instagram they said to email federalprisoner2020 at gmail if your order is messed up.

Thanks. My clear is arriving Thursday. I emailed them last week and got tracking.

Is it discernible from the covers? I just got my order and the covers are both the alternate white covers. Definitely going to open my copy of it, but would like to refrain from opening the gift one.
she/her/hers
white cover = clear vinyl
black cover = black vinyl
at least that's what it was supposed to be according to the bandcamp listing. i ordered clear and got black (as far as i can tell from the cover) so i'm not too happy about that.
Hairy Member
My black cover has black vinyl inside.
Hairy Member
Oops! I didn't phrase my question correctly. I ordered two clears, and received two white covers. Are people receiving black vinyl inside white covers?
Just wondering how deep the error goes because the post says to open up the albums and verify the correct vinyl is inside. Or I could be misinterpreting the post and they just meant open the package!

My interpretation is that the correct vinyl is in the correct cover. Some people were just sent the wrong item.
Active Member
You are probably safe. There have also been some mix-ups reported involving the wrong vinyl in the wrong cover, but that seems to only be with the UK and Australian variants.
Active Member
Yeah the mix up seems to mostly be affecting the Australian variants.

Got my black edition today, didn't even know it had shipped. Love the spot gloss and lack of writing on the spine.

New KBK out today. The first 25 seconds of Filthy Vagabond made my heart flutter with a yearning for new DEP.
edit: this album also seems to lean harder on Greg this time around. I wonder if he had a bigger hand in the song writing. Some tracks sound like they’d fit on his solo album. From a Crowded Wound, big time.

From a Crowded Wound is an awesome fucking jam. Has been stuck in my head for days.
House Always Wins
I listened to his Sirius XM Liquid Metal review during Killer Be Killed's takeover hour and interview this past week. According to Greg that song is mostly solo. He had the main riffs and song structure since at least 2009 or 2010 and just now managed to make them usable.
It's my favorite song on the album by far.

Just got the CD for Gregs solo album delivered today (sev weeks before its out in the USA)....Is Greg up front more on the new KBK album? I cant stand the dude from Mastodons voice and Max is a 1 trick pony
Active Member
He is (he also did a huge bulk of the guitar work) BUT... still some major cheesy moments from Max and some tracks Troy sounds downright obnoxious on. I love me some Mastodon but... I think I need to realize when it comes to KBK, I'm here for the Greg and I stay for the Greg. lol. I would be content if Greg just focused on his solo work and TBQ. But I only see TBQ continuing as its own entity (and not merging with his solo work) IF Eustis comes back or if they make Mcgrath a full time member. I do wonder if there was a falling out with Eustis and Greg, seemed like a very rapid shift in lineup and no support from either camps on releases since (at least on social... which doesnt mean anything but...)
Banned
AT least 4 or 5 songs on his solo album def sound like TBQ songs. I wouldn't be surprised if there is bad blood between Greg and Josh...No secret by now that Josh has a nasty little habit of bailing on groups in the middle of an album/touring cycle ....Just ask Trent
