Well, in the past, back when music was in stores, and not on Amazon.com, but the principle is really still the same.
For me, there are a few tells that make me want to listen to an album. When I check out a new record, it's typically a promo so I can bring all the best in new music to you.
So, I look at the promo photos, check the record label because most of them aren't sent from the labels directly, and look closely at their gear.
In this instance, you'll see that the band photo doesn't contain any guitars or amps, but it's a black and white noir photo in a desolate field. You could probably safely assume that their gear wasn't what caused me to bend my ear today....
