It would be very anti-climactic, so no.

Saw this one in a record store a while ago:

Didn't end up buying it because I've heard it's a pretty bad album, but I kind of regret it now simply to have this art. Is it snow or desert? A different planet? Severed heads or aliens? Why are some aspects real low res while others are high? Almost looks like some screenshot from a really obscure rail shooter at the back of a decrepit arcade.

I also really like the album. Weird Industrial Rock album from the mid 80's with non-shouty vocals, pounding bass and occasional brass elements.

This album kinda slams though. Love the promo photo on the youtube vid, three of the dudes are wearing matching round shades. Impeccable style.

Unbelievable. Where can I hear this?

OK I know this was posted like 5 years ago but this has revealed to me a whole new level of Black Metal production. There's sounds-like-it-was-recorded-on-your-phone kvlt, and then there's drums-sound-like-a-dripping-tap kvlt

Really? Therion's done some pretty good stuff. Guess it was a misfire from them (I've got Vovin myself and liked it a bit).

I always was a huge Therion fan of the era from Theli to Sirius B/Lemuria, I think the top of times for Therion with GREAT albums there , my favorite been probably Deggial(which thematically and soundwise feels very warm,desert and summer themed btw... But I was always so-so for their previous to Theli early era stuff (besides some specific songs) and their era after 2005 which gone WAY WAY towards the completely irrelevant and indifferent stuff.. But you can't always expect people to be on their top of their creativity forever.. Anyway, long discussion..

So not to stay off topic completely, I tried hard to find a general bad album art and eventually didn't came up with one. I must be really trying to avoid them I guess
