After thinking hard about how to best share this album with the world, BK&TC arrived at the concept of releasing A Sparkle Road Cult as an Art Book Album. The book includes the entire album in sheet music form, a full-color art page for each song, and a CD. It's a timely innovation and a meditation on how we consume music, or as Koontz elaborates:
“I kept thinking about releasing and archiving music beyond recorded versions—the songs themselves. I got excited about doing the physical album in a way that was thematically relevant to the material and highlighted the cinematic and narrative aspects—so a book made sense, art pages as visual environments made sense—sheet music made sense. . . buying fake books and sheet music singles from the record shop was how I first started learning to play. And I like that it adds an open-source element— the formula is laid out for anyone to access, so it glances back to the give-and-take that's so ingrained pop music—all music, really.”
