Damnation and Deliverance artworks: CAN'T WAIT

[changso]

Well probably all of you know that Travis Smith is doing the covers of the forthcoming albums once again...to think of it, it makes me lost all kind of control!!!

Anyway are you expecting a serene like artwork (ex: Orchid) or more the kind of Still Life...or Maybe one of those hunting, foggy and mysterious cover (MAYH, Morningrise, Blackwater Park)...or maybe something totally new?

Travis Smith does rule! Although I think it should be different this time around. Deliverence and Damnation (to me anyway) don't fit a serene look. Maybe Smith and Sundin would collaberate on the artwork!

Travis Smith is so fucking talented I´m sure the artwork is gong to be top notch.

Anyway Travis, if you read this, can we hope for the artworks soon? Is the work completed?

My own hope is that there will be some kind of linking theme between the 2 albums (the titles already suggest that in a way) and the artwork for the 2 albums will complement each other.

I'm sure it will be cool.

I bet Travis gets to listen to all the albums he does covers for way in advance so he can make artwork that fits the album... that bitch!

Well I'm pretty sure he does, it's kind of necessary if he wants to reflect honestly the spirit of the music...lucky guy. With a little chance, he's currently listening the new Katatonia too

I have yet to see a Travis Smith cover that isn't incredible, so I'm blindly confident on this one

You should check out the new update of his own website at: www.seempieces.com

Living Sacrifice and Axenstar are fucking awesome...as well as the others!

It's not his best work I agree but, IMO it puts to shame most of the covers nowaday...
