Recorded with Pearl Jam, \u003cem\u003eMirror Ball\u003c\/em\u003e sits at the meeting point between Young's long-established rawness and the darker, heavier language of 1990s alternative rock.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRemoved from the music and placed on the page, the songs become something else again. Repetition, blunt phrasing and fragmentary images are exposed as text, while the movement between English and Spanish gives the lyrics a second rhythm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe design is particularly strong. The front reproduces the fractured, high-contrast imagery associated with the album, interrupted by a red LETRAS panel that reads almost like an applied sticker. On the reverse, Young's face is blown up into an enormous black-and-white fragment alongside a short Spanish text connecting him to punk, grunge and a younger generation of musicians.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIssued by Celeste Ediciones as part of the El Sueño del Cangrejo series, the book sits somewhere between lyric book, album document and inexpensive music ephemera. More than a translation, it is a bilingual publishing afterimage of \u003cem\u003eMirror Ball\u003c\/em\u003e — the record recast as a small square paperback.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSoftcover. 16 × 16 cm. 52 pages.
