The Skim: Are We Losing The Concept Of Iconic Album Cover Art?

First editions, special editions, deluxe versions, live versions, baby it’s showbiz versions, the shiny bug (?) versions… sometime it seems as if we’re losing the very concept of the iconic album cover.

In not totally unrelated news, we’re also diving into everything we know so far about Taylor Swift’s upcoming album, The Life of a Showgirl.

From the surprise announcement on her beau Travis Kelce’s podcast to the tracklist reveal, we’re piecing together the clues and theories about her next big era.
