EABS – Discipline of Sun Ra album art

Published November 10, 2024

The graphic design for Discipline of Sun Ra by EABS reflects the band's interpretation of Sun Ra’s visionary music. Using black paper and white ink through screen printing, the design emphasizes simplicity and contrast, capturing the expansive and experimental essence of both Sun Ra and EABS. The minimalist approach aims to evoke the cosmic and avant-garde themes found in the music.

The album is available from Astigmatic Records in both CD and LP formats. The LP comes in two versions: a standard edition on black vinyl and a limited-edition version on white vinyl. The limited edition also includes a poster featuring the same artwork as the album cover but in a different format, offering an expanded visual connection to the music.

To accompany the release, short animated announcements were created for social media, maintaining a cohesive visual style while promoting the album in a digital context.

The album makes early use of Asfen, together with Acumin Extra Condensed.

The project was honored with an editorial design award at Konkurs 30/30 in 2020.
