This [music and art project](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bandlab-x-d4vd) is right on time for the [holiday gift-giving season](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sonic-editions). Artists David Shrigley, Stuart Semple, Lyndsay Jameson and Pete Fowler were sent an album by The Futureheads and asked to respond specifically to the music it contained.

The 100 signed, [limited-edition prints](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/limitededition-print-series) the artists produced are for purchase. At £50 apiece, each print is a bargain, as this art will only ever be reproduced in this one way. Read below to see what Ross Millard of The Futureheads had to say about the project.
