    My last few months in Stockholm were filled with bitterness and angst, fueled by self-imposed isolation and four hours of sunlight per day. The only cure was a mix CD full of cathartic music. Here is the cover, sized for Jewelboxing’s King Size cases. The art is a page ripped from a book I found at a Stockholm bar called The Library. Just discovered tonight that the dude is a Swedish boxer named Ingemar Johansson who won the World Heavyweight Championship in 1955. Fitting that the guy shares my middle name. He looks like I felt at the time. The toughest weight of Refrigerator, by Mark Simonson, keeps the shadow-only title legible without obscuring the image.
