      I suspect on this last one, Getting Into Knives, it was a graphic designer making the type choice: www.marksimonson.com/fonts/view/bookmania is not something you would find/choose without a design background. On the two before that, though, In League With Dragons & Goths, I strongly suspect John had some input - they're not choices a designer would probably make. That's not to say I dislike those choices, I very much love them: they have the feel of something from 1001fonts.com in 1999, a shut-in with their Gateway downloading this barely readable script and just using it everywhere, getting class papers returned with "Arial 12 pts., please!!!" circled in red.

      @@jefcaine My deceased Father in Law (a fantastic man, miss him all the time...) was a graphic designer as well. He was clearly dyslexic but never diagnosed, so my MIL did all his homework in highschool so he wouldn't flunk out (gotta love Hawai'i public school in the '60s!). Some time after graduating he created his own graphic design company and found a way to have a creative outlet while making a decent living for his family. Hell of a guy.
      *ANYWAY*
      Because my partner (his son) helped him out a lot with the technical side of the work (my partner is a computer nerd), he's very into fonts and logo designs and it eventually became an interest of mine... It's something that comes up in our conversations a lot!
      The fonts on Getting into Knives (and used by the band during that time) are _so good_ ! Even though I had a difficult time with the music on that album I ended up buying the double vinyl just to put it up and display it on one of our walls. My partner isn't a fan of TMG but is pretty fond of the album art/font.
      It cool to find other people who geek out over font! I haven't met many, and the few who I have met are usually graphic designers, like you.
      I'd love it if you if you were able to work with TMG someday: that sounds like a dream job.
      I'm not creatively inclined so I'll settle for just being a fan. I'm flying from Hawaii with my partner in... damn, about a week(!) to Portland to see TMG. I got tickets for all 3 shoes (I'm flying out, so might as well 🤷🏻‍♀️). I don't know where you're at, but even though we'll probably never meet in person, I wish you luck with your career, and I'll raise a glass to good fonts...

      Sadly I passed up going to a TMG show a few years back because I just don't like the crowds, the drive, the whole live experience(besides the music); I'm a bit of an introvert. I really wish I had gone to that show now. Radical Face was great live, also saw Judas Priest a long time ago in San Diego with a friend that got the tickets; guess those two were enough to put me off the live experience. I think I'll see TMG next time they're around me though. I listen to/watch so much of their live music all the time.
