Without you, nothing would have ever been the same

The picture used for the cover is one that Alex fell in love with, back in 2007, 5 years ago… Back then, though the shape of it was different, this journey was already in the back of our minds, waiting for us to define it. Vague Souvenir is the shape we gave this journey, the best way we could think of in order to be able to share it with you. A journey that Your Favorite Enemies went through, but also traveled with you. And without you, nothing would have ever been the same.

When thinking of the artwork, it was important that it would be something the band could relate to… But that you would also be able to relate to. And this is how the picture in the middle of the album, as you open the gatefold sleeve, has been chosen.

This picture was captured during the performance of the song “Des Armes” during the Bla Bla Bla: The Live show, a song that appears on Vague Souvenir, as one of the transits in this journey… As the Bla Bla Bla’s are always moments that we define together, we thought that this was one of the best ways we could honor you, your involvement, your friendship, your loyalty and your love through the years…

We have always said that Your Favorite Enemies is not a band constituted of 6 members… But a family with more people than we can actually count… but whose names and faces we never forget… This picture is the reflection of what, together, we can accomplish…

    I really love this photo…the view gives a large perspective of the band all together and we can feel such a warm spirit…The way that it is displayed in the hard copy of the album is really genuine! I felt so close to the band as I was holding them in my hands 😉 This album is a true ”moment”…I am glad that you are sharing the insights of its creation with this blog!! 😉

    Do you know how the artist of the cover picture felt as she was holding the final result in her hands?? Just being curious 😉
