I got my hopes up like, wow.. I am in for something amazing.. and I was blown away, not many manage to do that for me.
Haha, really? I was just about to say that cover belongs in the "worst album covers" thread.

The music sound good though, I'll give you that.

aren't they all pretty crap, anyway, looking like some 13 year old's idea of a horror movie scene?

i only really liked the later Obituary album covers, anyway - at least they looked that bit sinister

I wouldn't describe any of those as great personally. In fact the Nile one is the only one that's competently designed and even that's just sort of dull. Fun fact about the Obituary one though: that painting was used for the cover of an H.P. Lovecraft short story collection before the band got a hold of it. I remember seeing Cause of Death at my friend's house when it came out and thinking, "Heeey, I know this painting!"

Pretty much, yeah. I feel like death metal album covers in general range from being flat out awful to being sort of "meh", I can't think of any off the top of my head that I actually think are good.

Agreed, but I wouldn't say that they're flying the flag for American death metal anymore, which was the point of Hip Hop Bunny's post.
