It's hard to think of anything else than good times when I look for words to describe this project. Alright Alright Alright is a 4 song Ep album with Astara and somewhat a homage to one of the band's favorite film Dazed and Confused. Being fascinated with the films, music and the looks from the 60's and 70's the album art surely followed the band down that road. Due to their alleged love affair John F. Kennedy and Marilyn Monroe were paired together for the cover, creating a mystic and tension filled atmosphere. The cover folds both ways, whether you are more of a Ms. Monroe or Mr. J.F.K person. I have a few copies left and it's worth buying just for Smjeri's breathtaking clapping and flawless delivery by Wooderson on the track Cancer City.

I later printed the cover on a see-through film. The film was then glued on a 2 cm. thick plexiglass
