The tracklisting:

1 - Epitome XIV
2 - Epitome XV
3 - Epitome XVI
4 - Epitome XVII
5 - Epitome XVIII

Either it's going to be short or we're going to have some very long compositions. I'm hoping for the latter obviously, longer generally points to experimentation 8]

Meh. Sects and The Desanctification had weirder covers. I don't like the looks of this one, let's just hope the music will be great.

Don't find anything particularly weird about Sect(s) specially compared to this one. Out of all three, this definitely is the most captivating and interesting.

What an amazing art. Too bad it's not my kind of band, cause I'd love to have a cd with this on the cover..

First prediction:

Cos > Desanct > Sects

As it should be. Start good, go great, then end masterfully.

Okay cover art, nothing special. Somehow it reminds me of the latest Swallow The Sun cover art, don't ask me why though.

Yes, that one, like I said: Don't ask me why.
Oh besides the white background there's some black on it as well

But the music is infinitely inferior on Swallo The Cum's latest I am sure of that, but then again Swallo the Cum has always been average at best

The Desanctification's cover was purely amazing. Probably amongst my favorite 5 covers of all time. The sinister, weird vibe it had was stunning. Sects cover is also eerie, as it has some really strange stuff and symbols in there. This one, though, doesn't seem to me suitable for Blut Aus Nord... Dunno why, but I think the style of The Desanctifcation was perfect. I always thought the Cosmosophy will have a cover along the lines of The Desanctification, albeit in green (Dunno why, that's how I imagined it would be). But then it turned out to be this... Which I personally dislike. Actually, if I saw this cover without knowing its BaN I would never guess so. I would say it seems like a "melodeathy" cover.

This is actually the correct artwork, Debemur Mortii made an error in their colour correction or something:



Prefer it with blue actually but it's still stunning.

The sect(s) one loses many points because it's a very easy shit to do tbh... it's just random images that I've seen before smashed together, nothing complex about it whatsoever. In fact it has so many religious-based symbols that hardly match BAN's style because they barely even touch that area like a band like Deathspell Omega would do. Desanctification is pretty good so I won't go there.
I think this artwork WILL fully match this album because I'm pretty sure this won't even be metal at all but actually industrial/ambient based... which is a style this artwork definitely embodies.

I prefer the one you just posted, way clearer images thanks to the brighter colors.
