Oliver Sim – Hideous Bastard album art

Hideous Bastard is the debut solo album of Oliver Sim, best known as songwriter, bassist, and vocalist of The xx. The album cover was designed by Vasilis Marmatakis. The Greek graphic designer is well known for his minimalist posters for Yorgos Lanthimos’ movies. In this horrific artwork, Sim’s face is “slashed” by the letters that make up his name and that of the album.

The photography is by Casper Sejersen. Art direction by Sarah-Jayne Todd, creative direction by Rana Toofanian. The album was released by Young.
