Wow! this is fucking AMAZING! The color use really jumps out of the paper; the subtle use of green makes the rest of the work seem brighter and illuminate. It looks so surreal but it grabs the person's attention, especially with the shadow work, piece emerges into three dimensional character and the way the the souls are flowing from the head of the creature gives it a certain fluidity that it seems organic and rich unlike 99% of these day's photoshop covers. Those large haunting eyes in the background reminds me of Tool's 'Aenima', it's so well done that I swear they move just like in Tool's 3D "eye" cover.  And unlike the person who did the previous works, this time its not half-assed with air-brushed choppy over priced colored tattoo work on a cd sleve. Such an eye candy! I can't stop staring at it, its so hypnotically beautiful. If you love Seagrave's artwork, you would totally enjoy this.

Oh right, I forgot, this is a Deeds of Flesh album...uh...it's been a month since I had this and I never really listened to it, I don't really want to review it cuz I know they suck. They suck real fucking hard. Fucking boring. I don't mind predictable music, but this is just down-right horrible. But since I paid $10.00 for this, I might as well put it on and see if its anything new....

....ok that's :45 seconds of my life that I can never have back, that seemed like an eternity. I swear I thought I was gonna fall into a comatose. People who listens to this has high tolerance for the BORING....fuck, I just found out that the first :45 seconds was just an intro! FUCK THAT! I'm not gonna lose anymore of my precious time listening to actual Deeds of Flesh recording!

If you're looking for something that would help you sleep but without the side-effects of hallucinating (ie ambien), check this out...wait, wait, wait...*sigh* no, it does have a side effect: a prolong induced comatose might become a permanent damage and form into a malignant tumour.

I wish they had a poster instead of the cancer inducing plastic disc.
