I didn't have any particular objection or dislike regarding the artwork on the expanded edition, but i really don't like the design posted above. It is quite different from the rest of the usual artwork, but i wouldn't say it's different from everything else. In fact it vaguely reminds me of something, but i can't put my finger on it, probably an image i have seen online before.
For those reasons above, I think it looks awesome. Its interesting to see something different. I really like the band's art direction, and this is nothing different.
the expanded edition artwork was nice. A bit of a departure from Niklas' usual complex illustrations and compositions but it's stylish and by no means bad. I think it's just that you guys, like me, were expecting it to be like his usual high-profile work for in flames/dt/arch enemy.
The t-shirt is also cool. I like that it's not 'metal'
