Mnemic - New Album Cover Art Revealed
Official press release
Danish modern metal heroes Mnemic just revealed the artwork for their highly anticipated new album Sons Of The System.
Mainman Mircea Gabriel Eftemie states: "Since late 2008 we started looking into artwork for the album, but it was not before we entered the studio in October, we actually found a solid idea. We wanted something simple, yet strong and something archetypal, for this release, and we wanted to do it the right way this time. On the last release we never had any artistic control over our artwork, we just hired a name, a company that worked for majors, where our visions never converged into what we really wanted. This time around we reached out to hundreds of designers only to find out that we could do it our selves and even better! The artwork portrays the Sons Of The System symbol. Its the symbol of the united, the symbol of the outcast, the symbol of the people in revolt of a greater evil. The real deal lies in the booklet artwork, which has been conceived by Rune Stigart and Me... more on that later."
Mnemic will release the entire artwork/booklet etc... early next week in a digital flip book!
Sons Of The System will be unleashed in January 2010 via Nuclear Blast!
