Friend of Idolator Reed Fischer noted that the “white instruments on a white background” motif had been previously utilized by the Secret Machines on their 2004 album Now Here is Nowhere:

  1. Josh Garza the drummer for the Secret Machines, brought this to my attention. The cover for the Secret Machines album Now Here Is Nowhere was my concept and design. Thanks for the props.
