[Korlich]

looks like the DoD cover by iron maiden.

 

[Pethical]

really disappointed with that artwork. dimmu usually pay really close attention with artwork, especially on the last 2 albums, but this is lame and yes, also reminds me of im's dod

 

[soundave]

Nah, it's better than DoD by a LONG shot. Not great, but better than that pile of ridiculous shit. Note the absence of a mask-wearing baby riding a wolf bareback. 'Nuff said.

 

[Sadguru]

I think it's their best coverart so far. I give it a 4/10.

 

[derbeder]

DuD cover was beyond belief. I probably would have played that album more if the cover and the inlay pictures weren't so stupid. I even like Virtual 11 better.

 

[NFU]

[Lothlorien]

lolomgfailureband

 

[King Size]

Bah you're all just mad because they covered their tits on that one.

I must insist that Dance Of Death was a good album, actually I listened to both that & Death Cult Armageddon today at work. Both great shit & now I'm really looking forward to this one.

 

[RedinTheSky]

For all Tid and Stormblast = awesome. Enthrone Darkness Triumphant was like their 'black album' . Anything beyond that is turd.

 

[NFU]

lol @ stormblast and for all tid being considered good releases just because theyre not quite as flamboyant as their later output.

 

[affinityband]

they all blow fyi

cept for the first 2 mins of blessings on the throne of tyranny, everything else = a failed career.

 

[metal_wrath]

I think it's their best coverart so far. I give it a 4/10.

lol

 

[Liquid Diamonds]

Don't mind this band. That artwork fails on just about every level. If they take themselves seriously, they need to get lives.

 

[Liquid Diamonds]

I think it's their best coverart so far. I give it a 4/10.

4? That's REALLY generous, IMHO. I'd give it 1 or 2. Nah, 1, for sure.

 

[Sadguru]

4? That's REALLY generous, IMHO. I'd give it 1 or 2. Nah, 1, for sure.

Yeah, generous indeed. On a technical point of view, I've seen worse...that's why I went with a 4. On second thought, a 3 would be more appropriate though.

 

[Rocky Raccoon]

Awesome a goat with tits, Nothing says "buy this album" like a goat with tits

 

[Alex78]

lol

I've seen worse but that's pretty crappy

 

[Alteredmindeath]

It is a picture of the devil in Baphomet form, surrounded by blind christians, there is alot more to that picture than meets the eye.

 

[Liquid Diamonds]

It is a picture of the devil in Baphomet form, surrounded by blind christians, there is alot more to that picture than meets the eye.

That's as may be. But it's not even attractive or particularly interestingly drawn. And it speaks to me on no level whatsoever.

It's a horrendous cliche.
