The cover looks interesting but I don't like it.

 

[Miss Dalloway]

Really cool cover thanks for posting.

the cover photo is very good in my opinion, I really like that red area. What I don't like so much is the styling, even I usually like what Nicola does... and the typography is pathetic, not the 'flash dance' ones but where it says: "SPIKE JONZE on the.... blah blah", what's the name of it? why are some letters bigger than others?

it could really do without the "flashdance"

Tecktonick is a dancestyle that is all the rage in France atm and slowly taking over Europe...it's a dancestyle with wild armmovements and cool footwork performed on dance/trance music. I am not sure wether it is also the name of a formation or anything, but judging by the coverpic, he is an avid Tecktonick dancer

The cover looks shoddily put together.The "flash dance" font looks very amateur and they shouldn't have cut out the guy from the original background, it looks poorly done. Is this really the cover?

That said, I'd love to see the original photo, pre-photoshop abuse.

 

[shutterbug]

But anyways, he's wearing Jil Sander right? Looks cool

its funny that a year ago I was saying that the problem with Dazed was good covers but bad content and now it seems reversed (at least to me), now the covers are not my cup of tea (the Lovefoxxx cover, the Joaquin Phoenix cover and now this) and the contents are always quite good so I hope/expect that this is a good issue as well.

That would've been perfection.

This cover is still better than any of their recent ones. Looking forward to the edits.

 

[Ed..]

I don't blame Dazed for putting this Kevin guy on the cover since Dazed is not really a fashion mag. The cover is so cool IMO

 

[secretforest]

this cover is so awesome, but i hate the font!!

 

[Danish]

Eek, what's with the bad headline? I might buy it if the contents are good. Can't wait for the review.
