The guy who did the artwork also did the artwork for Job for a Cowboy's RUINATION. Which explains the heavier look from past album covers from Arch Enemy. I think the album is going to be heavy as f***!!

They dropped the pentagram? Maybe they're trying to be more "accessible".

Yeah the album cover is kinda boring, looks like a video game. Looking forward to the album though.

Funny you should say that #6. It looks like a snapshot from Killzone 3, which coincidentally dropped two weeks ago.

CONSPIRACY!

Now that Wilco's brought up that Soulfly cover, I can't un-see it! Doesn't look bad, bit digital for me but not bad. That said, I couldn't give a monkeys about Arch Enemy.

If you look at it, there are 5 cyborgs that make up a pentagram. I think they are just making it a little more subtle this time round haha
