The "What's Going On in this Album Cover?" Thread

[cookiecutter]

Alter, seriously, drop it. He is a person who actually does like metal but also enjoys having that sig and saying things purely to annoy noobs here. Just ignore him if it's bothering you.

How the fuck was the cover of Melissa ever in question?

 

[zabu of nΩd]

My thoughts exactly.

 

[cookiecutter]

Maybe it's like those magic eye things. Some people just can't see it

 

[Silent_Scream]

Belligerent is a fucking retard.

That is all.

 

[The Ozzman]

That's the first time I had ever seen the Melissa cover, tbh.

 

[Skepticism]

Looks fucking cool, but is that all it's meant to be? does it all come together?

Edit: After looking at it, I think I've figured out what it is.

 

[Matt]

^What is it then? I sure as hell don't know.

Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Borknagar. I know their self titled is a misty farm/barn kind of thing, and Origin is just a cool pattern with their logo. But these ones just confuse me

Someone help me out?

 

[cookiecutter]

cool trees and swirls

 

[Belligerent]

Belligerent is a fucking retard.

That is all.

Who the fuck are you?

 

[Zephyrus]

come together?

It's the flesh-eating bacteria that make up fractals.

 

[Blind Guardian]

looks really cool but what is it?

 

[Mr. Nekrophetamine]

Someone help me out?

The first one I think is a man (or some humanoid creature, the legs throw me off... satyr?), standing in awe before some vortex/portal thing. I don't really know the concepts behind the album, or any that follow really, so thats my best guess...

I have no idea what to make of the second one.

The third looks like a book, with something sinister coming out... they look like they could be demons or something.

The fourth one looks like theres a lot of nature symbology involved, and it's a tree branch, but also making a gesture.

 

[Pessimism]

What the hell is this?

 

[Wires & Waves]

some nice phallic imagery there

 

[Tonka Time]

anybody ever get the exhumed slaughtercult one??

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

That's easy...there's a fan and a bunch of gore

Re: Slaughtercult...Wikipedia says Henke Forss of Dawn did backing vocals on it...WTF?

 

[Killbot]

I never noticed that before.... That'd be one painful sex tool.
