Wish something art wise that would resemble the Dark Descent vinyl version of the first album had been done.
Never liked this art... it was awful enough on the cd version upon initial release. Just not my style I guess. Otherwise wicked band and the inside of the album art looks great, just that cover I find less than spectacular for a band so epic.  |

Psyched to get my copies and listen to this on said format, as much as it will be a bit weird admittedly to hear "Parasignosis" on vinyl with the tracks broken-up and separated (because of the album's continuum and flow and how the last track even loops itself back and attaches itself into the opening track when you listen to the album on repeat). |

You're in store for a treat. A lot of the effects that could not be heard on CD (knife slides, chains, etc.) are much more audible on the vinyl, without taking away any of the atmosphere of the entire sound. Many of the minute, fine detailed aspects of the songs are mulled over by being forced into CD format.
This is certainly an album that is IMPERATIVE to hear on vinyl as a mere CD simply cannot contain the album, in many respects!
Not to mention the artwork on full lp size. I agree with the statement above, this is Alex Brown's best work to date and those who get this in their hands, listen to the record and look at the art will not be disappointed! _________________ Iron and Fire |

Just got in the mail today and spinning now! Sounds fucking massive...ugh!
As for the art: it's pretty cool but doesn't blow me away. With that said, the overall packaging and attention to detail really impresses me. Excellent job! |

I received this in the mail today, and it exceeded all expectations. The artwork is overwhelming at this scale, and between the high quality everything and the huge book, it's one of the heaviest fucking records I own. _________________ https://www.facebook.com/sethbennettillustration - Artwork and graphic design |

I still have copies at retail. When these are exhausted, we have made plans to eventually repress but don't know when that will be. _________________ http://www.darkdescentrecords.com |
