Artist: As Cities Burn
Release: Come Now Sleep
Label: Tooth & Nail
Designer: Joey Lawrence (photography), Elizabeth Noble (cover painting)
Release Date: August 14, 2007

I first thought of Jacques-Louis David’s Death of Socrates, on the immediate level by the flowing robes, then maybe figuratively by the sleep/death theme. I wish the painter had a site. I’d like to see more of her work.

    i like this cover a lot… i like that it makes you uncomfortable. and it goes on well with the theme of the album.

    also their first album’s cover which is pretty nice as well. i dunno if you put it up at one time or not.
