Deliverence and Damnation Cover Art

[Snowblind]

I'm sure this has been asked before, but what's with the "old", creepy cover art of Deliverence and Damnation? I'm guessing it has something to do with the death of Mikael's grandmother to whom he dedicated these albums but I'm not to sure.

 

[Funeral Portrait]

or not.

I'm pretty sure she was still alive at the end of the recording session.
And Travis Smith did the art so... I don't know...

I love the creepiness of the cover art

among the best artwork in the world of metal.

Yeah, maybe they should have a warrior slaying dragons for the next album cover!

Well Travis Smith is a god... how dare you question his work!

Hah. Its pretty obvious that the covers suit the music very well... monochromatic and grainy. Actualy the covers are probably better than the music... but then I love photography.
