Obtaining the original art for our upcoming album has been a success. As a black metal band we were aiming for a specific look.

One of the songs includes the description of moose-like god apparition with bloody antlers.
I asked my favorite artist to get dark and make some epic art. She seemed to read our minds and her first draft was exactly what we were looking for. After finalizing it, I took our sigil-logo, applied it to the art and BOOM...we have an album cover (and tshirt art as well). Here it is:
