Justin Timberlake’s “Futuresex/Lovesounds” Is Totally “Retro”?

All the reviews are saying Justin Timberlake’s new album, Futuresex/Lovesounds, is totally retro because it sounds like an old Prince album.

But how come no one is talking about the other blast from the past factor of the LP? Anyone else think that the cover of his album (shot by Terry Richardson) looks very similar to the cover of the New Order Retro box set, which came out in 2002?

Take a look…

    Yea, apparent plagiarism :)
    However, I don’t bother about CD covers, because saw a lot of ugly ones but with great music inside.
