Album Artwork Pulled in Light of WTC

It seems that a pair of recent album covers depicting disasters in New York will be redone or pulled.

...New York art rockers Dream Theater suffered from even worse timing with Tuesday’s release of Live Scenes From New York, a live three-CD set with a cover depicting New York on fire.

Drummer Mike Portnoy issued a statement that said, in part, "I can only say that it is a horrible coincidence that we obviously could have never foreseen." According to an internal memo issued by distributor WEA, the album’s distribution is being put on hold and its artwork revised.
