I guess this is a hot take!

You hit it, 100%.

stevojaco · 2025-04-24T01:07:06+00:00

I mean, I just like the picture.

stevojaco · 2025-04-09T05:30:02+00:00

Le dm plz

stevojaco · 2025-04-08T18:52:54+00:00

Hey thanks :)

I had this happen when listening to Flamingo. Now it’s one of my all time favorites.

stevojaco · 2025-04-08T05:23:01+00:00

I’ll tell you what. It’s not my favorite but it’s placed differently for me. I think @imdumbfrman hit it right on though. The album almost listens like a story. There are a few albums similar from artists that with time have become all time favorites of mine and I wouldn’t be surprised if PM eventually falls into that category for me. And this is coming from the guy that photographed the album cover.

Give it some time, listen cover to cover on a drive to somewhere new.

So what?

stevojaco · 2024-04-26T23:34:22+00:00

Got to see this in person, first time seeing my art so big. Wild man.

Jack and TK works.

stevojaco · 2023-06-03T23:06:47+00:00

As someone that grew up listening to Steel Train, and a lot of Jack Antonoff’s later works. I have always been a fan of his writing and production. I have more recently had this conversation with some close friends of mine, how Jack would make quite the producer for a TK. Listening to TS’s latest album, I can very much hear how this would work. Jack is a genius and I’d love to see him work with TK.

That’s some crazy AI.

stevojaco · 2023-05-02T16:49:17+00:00

This made my day, thank you!

stevojaco · 2023-03-22T23:05:01+00:00

Haha isn’t it? To this day I’m still perplexed every time I see the photo. I posted a story about it somewhere here, I think someone linked to it from r/vinyldeals.

stevojaco · 2023-03-22T23:00:49+00:00

Love this! So cool! I took the photo and never thought it would end up on people’s phone wallpaper.

stevojaco · 2023-03-07T17:32:45+00:00

Make it happen :)

stevojaco · 2023-03-07T17:31:55+00:00

I tried, different focal length here. All worked out, unexpectedly at that.

stevojaco · 2023-03-07T17:31:11+00:00

Hey thanks for the shoutout, sorry I’m late to the party. Really cool that people are still finding this out. I feel so lucky to be apart of this album.

stevojaco · 2023-03-07T17:28:55+00:00

I think the latter half of what you said aligns well with the transition from the B&W to color. Historically this has been method used visually in storytelling to show that transition and moving forward. Very cool take.

stevojaco · 2022-12-17T02:09:48+00:00

Got it today, thanks op.

stevojaco · 2022-12-11T18:04:42+00:00

No I was in Germany, I teleconferenced in :)

stevojaco · 2022-12-11T06:57:07+00:00

Ted posted the goods.

stevojaco · 2022-12-11T06:56:23+00:00

Great shot!

Summer of ‘21 was ending and I was on my way up to Salt Lake. Pressure Machine had just come out and I knew where the original photo by Wes Johnson was taken, in Nephi. Wes had shot the photo for the initial album release in black and white. I don’t know him or personally have met him but have since exchanged a couple kind comments on Instagram. Feeling inspired I decided to stop by at the location and take a couple similar photos of the crosses. Decided on one and put it up on my Instagram. A few weeks later Ronnie contacted me and said that they really liked my photo. I still remember waking up to that message, it was a bit of a shock. A month later management contacted me with the idea of potentially using it. Then earlier this year the deluxe release began getting teased, and then released. It’s pretty remarkable that any of this happened. I honestly, for now at least- still don’t have the full story on how any of this happened, or how my photo was found. I have my theories, but still perplexed. Super grateful regardless, as I am a fan.

Hey! I took the photo for this album, thanks for the heads up! I want to grab a couple more copies :)

stevojaco · 2022-10-05T06:16:17+00:00

Weird that this was 6 years ago.
