if there's one thing that i've always loved about nj, it's the wide variety of music that comes out of here. every band adding their own style to the scene... always keeps things interesting. athletics are right in the thick of it all coming out of asbury park. their debut album "why aren't i home?" originally released through deep elm, delivers their own haunting post-rock sound i felt deserved an equally fitting vinyl packaging.

over the winter i happened to run into the band hanging out at the court tavern and approached them with the idea of creating an album cover that leaves a ghost image of a hand print on touch, then slowly vanish when let go.

we applied the touch sensitive ink by hand to each cover and added a custom diecut logo sticker on the bottom right corner available in 3 different colors w/ matching vinyl.
