I like the concept but I think it could have been realised a bit better. Looks a bit rudimentary as it is.

Always trees.

Was just about to point that out.

In fact, this is the second time they've mixed a tree and a human together. That is, if you count the inside cover for The Link.

Nice cover, but the one for From Mars To Sirius is still my fav :3

Looks like they should call it "The Link Part 2", pretty cool looking, but what about the music?

I whole-heartedly agree

I think it looks a bit like a mock-up concept art of the final design :/

I'll agree. The Way Of All Flesh had great cover artwork that properly reflected the music...This just looks really, really basic, and not in a good way. Hopefully it isn't representative of the music.

Haha, that's like saying "compose your own Metal album and upload it here, instead of writing a review of an album". :lol:

Never really wowed by their album covers, and this doesn't break that trend. Hopefully a good thing.
