No Good For No One Now combines the intricate beauty of Owen's (aka Mike Kinsella) debut self-titled LP
with heartfelt songwriting full of bite, honesty, wry, and raw emotion.
To record No Good For No One Now, Mike moved back to his Mom's house and converted his old bedroom into a recording studio. During this time, Mike decided to make the cover image a print that
hung in his Mom's house during his childhood. As it turns out, the painting is
by a German artist named Charlot Byi, whose figurines and artwork from the
1940's and 1950's are highly collectable today.
