I did some checking, weirdly both albums were released in the same month of the same year, June 2004.

The lackluster album is a selection of remixes of other artists tracks, so it’s possible he decided to use a ‘remix’ for the cover art too, changing the egg for an egg timer. There’s no remix of a Wilco track on the album though.

That’s my guess anyway, they seem way too similar to be a coincidence.

I actually used to talk with Esa (Esa Ruoho AKA lackluster) now and then many years ago on soulseek. Pity I’ve lost touch with him or I could have just asked him.
