ArtworkI was wondering what everyone thought about what the new album artwork should be.
Has to be said that the arwork on AWBR and TTDHD were pretty unimaginative, just the DH logo. I would like a return to the epic scenes by Rodney Matthews like on Borrowed Time and Am I Evil. I just love the detail on those drawings, just gives the feeling of power!
Any thoughts?

Well... I was hoping the new album would be called "Are you getting any head?" I would then have had no end of ideas for an album cover.....  
I think this will be something special though this time round.
As for the artwork for AWBR, and To The Devil his due DVD....I thought they were good. No balls, this is whats on the cover and this is what your getting. I am very simple by nature though!

Ha Ha, that would have been awesome. They could have released the title track as a single with Sucking My Love as a B-Side! 
Just an idea

 You guys are so funny!
Personally I love the cover of AWBR I just think their logo is awesome, but I guess it is time for an epic change. I have no idea really, I'm not artisticly inclined. I just want to HEAR it!!

LOL!
Mainly I'm with Shellie; I want to HEAR the new album! Besides, look what we got from this band in a plain white sleeve! 
Honestly, when the album cover canvas shrank from slightly over 12" x 12" to 4.75" x 4.75, I quit paying much mind to album cover art. Of course there are some gifted miniature artists out there ... But seriously ...
Yes, I'm one of those old f*rts who waxes nostalgic for the time when album cover art really was an art and a part of the whole album "experience". Of course a great album cover can't help an album that's really lame musically but a great album with great album cover art ... that was BEAUTIFUL!
Off the top of my head I really can't think of any covers done specifically for CD's that have bowled me over.
Actually I like the cover that was done for the AWBR 2005 Tour Limited Edition. I was kind of disappointed that one wasn't also used for the official album release. I liked the regular AWBR cover all right though. My line of thought is, ok, we've got the "first" album with the "new" band with the logo cover ... now time for something a little different with the "second" album. "What's In Your Head?" is certainly an interesting concept to work with ...
Aside from the music itself, the main thing I'm interested in when it comes to a CD/album is a decent booklet ... like having the lyrics, the credits as to who did what ... and maybe some pictures of the band.
