On Joes flickr files we can also find this : but if it's the same font it may have nothing to do with the new album title.

He's obviously using some kind of hybrid of this font. He has turned letters and gotten rid of parts (for example, the diagonal line that looks like it could be a V)
What's really annoying my about the original are those three very close feet above the diagonal. At first, i thought it might be an M, but looking at the M here, it's obviously not. So is it 3 I's in a row? The only thing that makes sense to me is HI, although there could be warping of the original font.
this is what i think it looks like, not that this really solves it
__HIC__ __OVE(R? the only possible letters are B/D/E/F/H/I/L/P/R)___

I thought The Air Force was one of their best album covers.

ugh--maybe my least favorite. i think the FM cover was INCREDIBLE and the A PROMISE very good. the la foret cover just seemed like the kind of predictable indie-collage crap thats all over pitchfork, so i usually think of the acuarela version. knife play was okay.
god i love the fabulous muscles cover though. who did that artwork? (im not at home right now to check.)
