Released in 2018, it won Best Dance &amp; Electronic album at the 2019 Korean Music Awards and gained a minor cult following outside of Korea through online forums such as <a href="http://rateyourmusic.com/">Rate Your Music</a>. From the webpage for its <a href="http://www.topshelfrecords.com/products/645044-mid-air-thief-crumbling">2019 physical release by Topshelf Records</a>:</p>

<blockquote>
<p>Although sung almost entirely in Korean, Mid-Air Thief's cult-acclaimed album <em>Crumbling</em> exhibits a distinct universality, merging disparate sounds and styles into a cohesive, electronic-infused folk amalgam that tactfully blurs the lines between organic and synthetic. Listeners are led through enrapturing passages of swirling melodies underscored with eloquent plucks, strums, and bursts of bubbly glitches. Individual phrases drift into one another as if in a dream, cohered by guest vocalist Summer Soul's entrancing hooks and vocal soundscapes. <em>Crumbling</em> is a compelling accomplishment of both composition and production, bending as it does to its unique contours of consonance and dissonance, always resolving to a place of calm and beauty.</p>
</blockquote>

<p>The album’s front cover, designed by the musician's cousin, features a grainy photo of a man fishing in the distance under a slate-blue sky. Outlined, wavy, and just a bit squished, AG Typography Institute's <a href="http://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/149227/ag-superblack-gothic"><strong>Superblack Gothic</strong></a> spells out the name of the artist and the title of the album in Hangul. Its back cover features the song titles set in the same typeface, with personnel and a short thank-you message in <a href="http://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/149228/dx-gyeongpil-myeongjo"><strong>DX경필명조</strong></a> Bold. On media related to the Topshelf vinyl release, English text is set in the label’s signature typeface, <a href="http://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/1984/base-monospace"><strong>Base Mono Wide</strong></a> from Emigre.</p>

There are 12 typefaces on the page by my count, some of them only used for one or two lines of text.</p>

<p>The Hebrew Publishing Company was founded by Joseph Werbelowsky in 1900, and published Jewish books, religious materials, and sheet music, becoming one of the most successful Jewish publishers in New York of the early 20th century. At the time, “Hebrew” was the preferred term for anything Jewish, and the Hebrew Publishing Company published materials in Yiddish and English as well as Hebrew. Much of the Yiddish in America then was printed in a very Germanized orthography — especially egregious here are the umlauts in “König” and “Schöne” (standard <em>kinig/kenig</em> and <em>sheyne</em>). This iteration of the catalog is taken from the back of their <em><a href="http://www.loc.gov/resource/ihas.200154914.0/?sp=19">Potpourri of selected Hebrew melodies</a></em>, a medley of 12 dance melodies and Hasidic nigunim arranged for piano.</p><br/><a href="https://fontsinuse.com/uses/37557/hebrew-publishing-company-sheet-music-catalog"><img src="https://assets.fontsinuse.com/static/use-media-items/130/129414/upto-700xauto/69b5659d/4567-detail-1.jpeg"/></a><br/><br/><i><span>License: <span class="fiu-attribution__license">All Rights Reserved</span><span>. </span></span></i><br/><br/><p>Detail ft. <strong><a target="_self" class="entity-link" href="https://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/15425/bradley" data-entity-code-id="15425" data-entity-code-type="TypeEntity">Bradley</a></strong>, <strong><a target="_self" class="entity-link" href="https://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/12494/quaint-desdemona" data-entity-code-id="12494" data-entity-code-type="TypeEntity">Quaint</a></strong>, and <strong><a target="_self" class="entity-link" href="https://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/498/ronaldson" data-entity-code-id="498" data-entity-code-type="TypeEntity">Ronaldson</a></strong>.</p><br/><a href="https://fontsinuse.com/uses/37557/hebrew-publishing-company-sheet-music-catalog"><img src="https://assets.fontsinuse.com/static/use-media-items/130/129412/upto-700xauto/69b5659d/4567-detail-2.jpeg"/></a><br/><br/><i><span>License: <span class="fiu-attribution__license">All Rights Reserved</span><span>. </span></span></i><br/><br/><p>Detail ft. <strong><a target="_self" class="entity-link" href="https://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/4984/facade" data-entity-code-id="4984" data-entity-code-type="TypeEntity">Facade</a></strong> (“Min Hameizar”)  and <strong><a target="_self" class="entity-link" href="https://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/7888/de-vinne" data-entity-code-id="7888" data-entity-code-type="TypeEntity">De Vinne</a></strong> (“Homon der Zweiter”).</p><br/><a href="https://fontsinuse.com/uses/37557/hebrew-publishing-company-sheet-music-catalog"><img src="https://assets.fontsinuse.com/static/use-media-items/130/129413/upto-700xauto/69b5659d/4567-detail-3.jpeg"/></a><br/><br/><i><span>License: <span class="fiu-attribution__license">All Rights Reserved</span><span>. </span></span></i><br/><br/><p>Detail ft. <strong><a target="_self" class="entity-link" href="https://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/10139/french-clarendon" data-entity-code-id="10139" data-entity-code-type="TypeEntity">French Clarendon</a></strong> (“Kol Nidre”), <strong><a target="_self" class="entity-link" href="https://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/11066/jenson-old-style" data-entity-code-id="11066" data-entity-code-type="TypeEntity">Jenson Old Style</a></strong> (“arranged by”), and <strong><a target="_self" class="entity-link" href="https://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/40738/boldface-italic" data-entity-code-id="40738" data-entity-code-type="TypeEntity">Fullface Italic</a></strong> (“Voice and Piano”).</p><br/><br/>This post was originally published at <a href="https://fontsinuse.com/uses/37557/hebrew-publishing-company-sheet-music-catalog">Fonts In Use</a><hr/>]]></description>

<blockquote>
<p>King Gizzard &amp; the Lizard Wizard's sense of unfettered sonic exploration makes it easy to mistake them for a long-forgotten relic of the psych explosion of the '60s. With a far-out sound that, at times, feels barely held together, King Gizzard evoke the eclectic rock experimentation of Frank Zappa's early work with the Mothers of Invention, the anything-goes feeling of the Flaming Lips, and the demented glee of a random obscure '60s group plucked from a Pebbles compilation as they follow their musical flights of fancy wherever they might lead. King Gizzard's prolific nature led them to release albums at a frenetic pace, and their intense desire to seek out new sounds and follow new paths -- from expansive jazz-rock (2015's Quarters) to semi-acoustic ballads (the same year's Paper Mâché Dream Balloon), and from sci-fi prog (2017's Murder of the Universe) to trippy garage rock (2014's I'm in Your Mind Fuzz) -- meant that every one of their multitude of releases sounded different from the last, and each one was worth checking out. Some of their albums, especially Nonagon Infinity from 2016, stand shoulder to shoulder with the best psychedelic rock ever made.</p>

<p>Their album art, merchandise, music videos, and other promotional material are created by Melbourne-based visual mastermind <a href="http://www.jasongalea.com/">Jason Galea</a>. Galea makes extensive use of various Victorian, Art Nouveau, and 1960s/70s-era typefaces alongside bubbly hand lettering to create a unique visual identity for each album.</p><br/><a href="https://fontsinuse.com/uses/31603/king-gizzard-and-the-lizard-wizard-album-cove"><img src="https://assets.fontsinuse.com/static/use-media-items/108/107562/upto-700xauto/69b551b9/81OzrxuWtGL-_SL1500_.jpeg"/></a><br/><br/><i><span><span class="fiu-attribution__credits fiu-text--captioning">Jason Galea, 2016</span>. </span><span>License: <span class="fiu-attribution__license">All Rights Reserved</span><span>. </span></span></i><br/><br/><p><em>Nonagon Infinity</em> (2016) album artwork.
