I liked that cover when it first came out too. However things have certainly changed in opinion on what is good art and what is bad art
I'm a fan of the music, but if that was to be re-released today, the band could be well respected to change that art to something far more original and unique. |

Of course, the Necrolord and the Doré paintings on the two EPs kick ass, but I think is one does as well.

Thats a good point. What happened after Nightside Eclipse that made them use such inferior artwork covers? |

When your career is going downhill musically, then why not also by cover artworks. _________________

I don't agree. If anything their musical career if measured by dollar value shot through the roof.
The quality of artwork went from a painting to 1/2hrs worth of effort in photoshop layering different photo's overtop of each other. Musically they excelled. (The I hate clean vox and keys nonsense can disperse from this thread, childish and pointless) |

| They probably just stopped giving a shit about their layout artwork as time went on. It happens. |

Same thing that happened to their music - label pressure to conform to the new flavor of the month. |

Let's not destroy this thread with another personal feud. Keep it to private messages, where the rest of us don't need to read the board like the National Enquirer, and you can always delete the incoming message without reading. |

| ITNE, of course. Anthems is bearable but I haven't played it for so long and have no desire to do so. Latest two are so homosexual. |
