TTF is blue and green. At Dawn is Black. ISM is bears and stained glass, but sometimes black. Z is weird art, but also sometimes black. Evil Urges is people in a theater?. Circuital is translucent green, but sometimes black.

I am in limbo right now because my TT is packed up and waiting to be shipped to be restored by this guy: Vintage Turntable Restoration (http://www.vintageturntablerestoration.com/). I can't wait to get it back to see if the bears and stained glass really do sound as good as the black, as it seemed.

The Tennessee Fire is whiskey. At Dawn is weed. It Still Moves is a high-quality craft brewed lager. Z is a psychedelic tea brew. Evil Urges is coffee and cigarettes. Circuital is vitamin water laced with LSD.

I know the symbols don't exactly fit, but saw the picture and thought it was funny and needed to be added.  Can be somewhat fitting in that they put the album together pretty quickly and are in a positive/playful state of mind when they compiled it.  I love Circuital and think it's just building on their prior work of excellence.

The Tennessee Fire is a candle.  At Dawn is the Sun.  It Still Moves is white hot steel, and Z is a full moon.  Evil Urges is a fireworks display, and Circuital is a mirror(ball).

Monsters of Folk is a loot bag.
