Videos Sunday, September 11, 2011 at 1:01AM The image below pictures the planned cover art (prepared in June 2001) for the forthcoming "Party Music" album by the hip-hop group The Coup.
The move to switch covers has not been without opposition.
Coup founder Boots Riley said he argued with the label to keep the original design, which a distributor had threatened not to release.
Riley said the cover design, completed in June, was "supposed to be a metaphor for the capitalist state being destroyed through the music."
It should not be interpreted as a call to violence, particularly in light of Tuesday's tragedy, he said.
"My condolences go to the families of the victims and all their friends and anybody affected at all by the catastrophe," Riley said. "But they can't sidestep that the reason this is being censored is a political one, not a sympathetic one. It's not out of respect to the victims."
Riley said he lobbied to keep the cover intact because he wanted people to consider that it is not only foreign terrorists, but the United States as well, that have committed atrocious acts.
Chris Funk, The Coup's manager, said it's most likely that 75 Ark will prevail in its plan to change the cover, however.
"Ultimately, they reserve the right to use whatever cover they want because they're the label," he said.
Funk said The Coup, known for lyrics with an edgy, anti-establishment bent, chose the original cover for its powerful imagery.
And, as was the case with The Coup's previous three releases, "Kill My Landlord," "Genocide and Juice" and "Steal This Album," not all harsh statements are meant to be taken at face value.
"We're not saying go out and blow up the buildings," Funk said. "But it's politically charged music."
Since the album wasn't getting released until November of 2001, the band pulled the art from websites and created a new one after 9/11. When Pitchfork reported on the art change, they mentioned that "Riley had requested that the band be allowed to keep the artwork despite the terrorist attacks, but 75Ark would not allow it, calling the cover wholly inappropriate." The new image? A gasoline martini. "
