If you really look at this, it’s a pretty gruesome cover. It’s rather subtle because the colors and textures don’t immediately communicate the fact that there’s a burning car, two naked chicks, and four arms (among other things) bursting out of this person’s ribcage. Hey, as long as the blood is Kool-Aid colored, it’s fine with me.

    There is a lot of really nice juxtaposition and color in this. I dig.

    There’s also a few weirdo animals near the car, and one has a tail for a leg?

    Yeah, the color usage, and animal/girl figures remind me a lot of Hieronymus Bosch paintings. “Garden of Earthly Delights” in particular.
