Oh man, that cover is really... cosmic? I like it  I'm not very expectant about this release, but Therion can change a lot between records, so, we'll see.

I love Therion but that cover is just awful. Let's hope the music is better.

I think it's kinda cool, but I see the Kabbalah theme again and it worries me. I only liked a few songs from that one...

Not crazy about the album cover, but it'll grow on me, I bet. Sorta like the Sirius B one.

Looks nice.. by the cover I have a feeling of a ''sci-fi interstellar orchestral metal''...  I wouldn't mind that.

Looks like they got the cover somewhere on DeviantArt, in 2003.

I looks like a claw-like hand holding a poppadom (Indian crunchy things) with a meatball. Looks tasty with all that energy!

To be honest, the background is cool but the rest looks really cheap. I don't like it but it's not worse than A'arab Zaraq Lucid Dreaming or Theli haha ! Here is an interview of Christofer Johnsson during Graspop 2010 where he also talks a little bit about Sitra Ahra. Well i'm a little afraid when he mentions "a 70s type of production","doesn't sound modern at all", "It sounds like 20 years old"... http://studiorock.ro/interviews/a-chat-with-therion-mastermind-christofer-johnsson-4/
