I wanted to follow up Eric’s inaugural post with another shoegeezer classic and offer a piece of advice.
The next time you put on Slowdive’s Just for a Day (in an obvious attempt to set the mood for a make-out session), whisper this little tidbit in your partner’s ear: “This album’s font is a variant of Caslon Bold, based on William Caslon I’s first English Old Style typefaces of 1725.”
You’ll thank us later.
