Album Covers and Artist Pictures

lots of ropes to learn. The nice thing is ... you all pretty much have the artistic freedom we never had. Always having the admins breathing down our necks that we might do something.. unapproved. Or perhaps it was just me and my teams.  They never did like me or feared the worst from me

Uwe is the man.  That is one docile genre team, one of the few actually I never worked on.  I was the middle of my 20 year abstinence from that sh*t man (since broken by partying  with Cheyenne and Ut Gret at Progday ) and didn't think it was a good idea to join them.  Though I always enjoyed working with them, contact highs rule.

^ I've found a bit better

^ No, real innocent blood, I swear!

^ What's wrong with the "strange" pic from the band's website?

actually I like that band pic.. and definitely a better choice than the electric blue one.. or the one with them looking up like that... freaks me out.

besides to Eugenes point.. we like our pictures of long haired men on PA'rs ...  it seems we are overrun with short haired guys or worse.. balding old farts. It may be prog.. but damnit man.. it still can be rock and ROLL! Long hair rules...

oh who doesn't love those small dicked baldheaded security beefcakes


 that go down hard when you bust their knees with bar stools..

as you probably have noticed gorgeous women are scarce in these whereabouts so as much as I try we'll always end up with a bunch of more or less horrible blokes in menacing poses that seem to so convey their sense of what artistic integrity and seriousness must look like to the potential market of such grand oeuvres they are trying with extreme difficulty to sell to us music lovers of assorted tastes and preferences

We're going from bad to worse, here, let's stop this outrageous exposition of human vanity and silliness 
(well, times change and I don't know how our present ways will be judged in a couple of years on matters of taste - or lack of it ?)

Actually, it's an original  photo composition which made the cover of a sole US edition, you can see it here: https://www.discogs.com/Orphaned-Land-The-Never-Ending-Way-Of-ORwarriOR/release/2845687 In fact I sympathize with the idea of religious tolerance that seems to be portrayed, but THAT is not the question.
