So I have album artwork.....

[hurlingdervish]

So this guy was offering his services for free artwork so he could practice, and how could I not pass that up right?

He's actually really good,
so i gave him some stuff i did for him to "flip"


however....

I will start having to write metal music from now on

what do you guys think? does it match my music at all? I am really no judge when it comes to my own sound, i could write a dark song and think its cheery and vice versa

i think a little deep purple and red could sort things out....

It somehow lacks a certain object in the middle of that great piece of background art. Not sure, but such an image could fit many styles of music for sure.

I've seen some pretty darkish album artworks on www.undergroundhiphop.com, but as is this piece of art certainly looks good to me.

I might have placed the name and artist name a bit lower, but it's looking pretty good.

maybe a little too dark, but above all, is it that you asked him for or not?

[Les Braun]

Gonna give you my honest opinion, it doesn't match you at all.
I'd rather you have your name on a photo or something, and not so big and centered.
But it's your choice.

[niq names]

if he flipped your name in a more organic way i would like it but i also think that your album cover would have some weird character doin somethin crazy on it... that's how i envision things when ui listen to your beats... otherwise it does throw u off as to what style of music u do....

[hurlingdervish]

yea it looks like some gurgling screaming is about to drop and some blast beats

i tried to give it some color


but i think ill just have to design my
own

im a try to make it more color full and psychedelic

and NIQ

its really funny that you should say some sort of character, because the last time was going to release something i made some weird ass drawings of like some robots and flying things

yea i think ill have to take some weird photos and edit them so you don't know whats going on

I have to say, the purple one does look 10 times better.

I still think there's something missing in the middle. Perhaps a character or piece of gear or whatever.

When you do the photo (collage?) thing, you could definitely use this purple image as the background though.

HD, it's too gothic...
fans of marylin manson or sepultura could like it.
sorry for the straight opinion.
but i see your music more, how to say that, "with light"(? ah, my english...) and colours....

no need to apologize

apologies are like little lies

no i knew this when i saw it

i was like WHERE IS THE COLOR?

i think he didn't even listen to my music when he made it...he just went off the name instead

i should be able to flip it into something more psychedelic

[crayon]

i dont like it either.

your MS paint things are more interesting/suiting to your music.

you did a damn good job with your video i say DIY HD.

Precisely what I was thinking. If you could get a snapshot of that oil-water reaction or whatever that was, that'd be cool.

def do somethin with motion in it... your music rarely stands still so u shouldn't have a cover than reflects stagnation... but on the other side of things, when can we expect a release???

It doesn't fit My fiancee's art would be perfect for you, but she probably wouldn't want to do it. I'll ask her later if she would want to show you some of her stuff.
