Coincidence? I Think Not!

Really, the striking similarities between the following two album covers are rife for some kind of Hipster Runoff snark:





I really can't believe that no one has made any jokes about these indie dudes recoding "dreamy" "ethereal" lo-fi music "awash" in synth sounds alone in their bedrooms, only to adorn their record covers with photos of people getting it on. Wet dreams? Musical masturbation? Anyone? Can anyone fashion something funny out of that? Bueller?

Or has this whole trend just gotten creepy?

Or irritating?

I'm going with irritating.

And maybe with creepy, too.
