watershed cover !

[Iki-ilkkuja]

It does, can this be considered a joke or something?

 

[Black Session]

hmmmmm, some of you guys were complaining you wanted something new and different ... I guess you got it now ... I do hope this really is a joke, because what the fuck, and who is that guy on the post stamp????

YES. It kinda spoils it, hopefully it has a meaning, a reference point in the lyrics or something.

I don't know, but he's crossed eyed.

 

[opest]

the SE cover is fucking great ...!!! i love it

 

[Ruun]

indeed x)

 

[Kirkfjell]

I really like the idea of the SE cover, but the motif on the stamp is certainly not what I was expecting ... looks like a god damn psycho drug dealer or something ...

Hoozafak is on the right up corner of that sleeve?

DemeterSweden, it doesn't work.

 

[pyr0rrzzz]

lol this is so fucking terrible... I guess I'm going to buy both editions and put the special edition CD into the regular one's case

By the way I grabbed HQ picture from the flash:

 

[pyr0rrzzz]

I guess the face has been put together: Mendez' hair, Per's mouth etc. could this be possible?

 

[Whisper and Weep]

Uh.. didnt Mike say the SE cover was supposed to be full of symbolism...

 

[Existenzleid]

wtf, that's a delayed April fools joke, right ?!

Hey, that could be the case! Then again, it might not but, I really think you could be on to something!

The priority/prioritaire stamp is kind of ironic too!

6867?? the pic?? opeth new font??

 

[Lenni]

wtf, that's a delayed April fools joke, right ?!

My thought exactly...
I love Mikael's sense of humor.
No, really doesn't look like Opeth
Doesn't look like an album cover at all!
Ah well, in the end the music is what matters.

EDIT: Now I'm sure it's some sort of riddle... there's indeed much symbolism/numbers/dates involved...

 

[Iki-ilkkuja]

Looks basically like Mendez with Mikael's right eye.

 

[pyr0rrzzz]

The font is at least similar to the one used for Deliverance/Damnation.

 

[Lord Byron]

That is one of the weirdest covers i have ever seen. What the hell!?!?!
