COB and Iron Maiden covers

[Zarok666]

I just saw the new Iron Maiden cover artwork which me reminded me to the Something Wild cover. But I think the Maiden cover sucks big time.

I also noticed the cover of the Bring Your Daughter To The Slaughter single which has some similarities to Hate Crew Deathroll:

 

[Johanna]

buah, way too computermade look for my taste...

 

[tempestadiossa]

I like it but it doesn't fit with others IM covers

 

[Morning Star]

Iron Maiden always has weird album covers, I'm not so surprised.
I liked their "Brave New World" cover, was a nice one

I don't think iron maiden ripped cob off, the reaper was not cob's original idea, many bands like to use things like that.. but cob's album covers are damn better.. I never really liked Iron Maiden's oddly designed stuff

 

[Ralf]

I bet Iron Maiden doesnt know who the fuck are Choldren Of Bodom and that eddie with scythe isnt reaper rip off but a symbol of death asking for a dance (check the album title ) so in my opinion this is only coincidence. That pose was made long time ago in medieval times when everybody was freaked about that dance macabre stuff so COB doesnt own this character.
PS. all in all that cover sucks

 

[Ralf]

this is the worst IM cover in their carrier, but the album is going to be amazing UP THE IRONS!!

 

[Johanna]

uak, the more I look at it the more I dislike it I mean, even I could do a cover like that pretty easy with poser...

 

[Tut Ankh Amon]

that dude that made the covers for maiden (forgot his name now) simply SUCKS at CG... he should still be making 2d-only art

 

[~MarttiPrkl]

You all must be kidding about that rip off thing... I said that same thing to dethroned yesterday, but as a joke!

 

[Tut Ankh Amon]

you actually think IM is ripping COB covers?!

anyway, let me make a correction....
he sucks at TEXTURING and his rendering fucking sucks too... if he improved that, it would be better... but i still prefer his 2d art.

 

[Welly]

brave new world is the only cover i liked from maiden


dance of death will be a great album

 

[A Fire Inside]

Dance Of Death cover sucks. Wildest Dreams sucks.

Hope that new album will be good.

 

[MagSec4]

Oh that must be some of the worst cover art I've seen.
Death looks kinda cool but everything around it looks retarded.
Never been an Iron Maiden fan anyways...

 

[ukstin]

this cover is horrible.. I really didn´t liked it!

 

[Evil_Ernie]

Even Mr. Horse agrees about the IM cover:

 

[BodomiC]

lil'cheap'n'witty reap there, cant figure how that loossy poo reminds the great and deadly sw's reaper?

 

[Tut Ankh Amon]

actually i think the reaper is better then SW's one
i never got tired of saying "hey man, it's their first album, it's probably some bandmember's father with a cloth!" back then

 

[Cat5Messiah]

How fucking gay and lying.

 

[Embody The Invisible]

i really dont like the new IM cover. i saw it a couple weeks ago and i dont like it. it does kinda look like something wild. haha. it also looks really cheaply made.
