What artists have to do to sell an album these days. Well, making the album out of a giant block of sugar is a good start. For Beacon’s first LP The Ways We Separate, Brooklyn-based sculptor Fernando Mastrangelo created a 13″x13″ cast sugar housing for the vinyl record.

And everyone loves sugar… You’ll just have to explain to your friends what vinyl is. The limited edition is available for pre-order here.
