Moonspell - Unveil New Album Cover Art


Portuguese metallers Moonspell decided to reveal today the cover that will grace Extinct. Their new album is coming out next year in March 2015 via Napalm Records and the cover artwork was done by Seth Siro Anton (Septicflesh) once again. You can take a look at the cover below. As for the music, you will have to wait a little bit more for that.




Tracks on the new album:

  • Until We Are No More (Breathe)
  • Medusalem
  • Funeral Bloom
  • Domina
  • La Baphomette
  • The Last Of Us
  • A Dying Breed
  • Malignia
  • Extinct
  • The Future Is Dark

    The band explained: "We have arrived safely in Warsaw, Poland and are just chilling out and resting to kick some ass tomorrow in the last show of a very intense year, or a couple of years to be more accurate. We take the chance to reveal our new cover artwork done by Seth Siro Anton once again. Goes without saying that we feel privileged of having him creating such spectacular, disturbing and impressive paintings to adorn our music.

    (Check more of his work here.)

    "This will be the cover of our jewelcase edition but we can already let you know that all editions available (Napalm deluxe box; Mediabook and Vinyl LP) will have different cover artwork!"

    Also, is there anyway we can convince Moonspell to not use this as an album cover? any way at all?


    This artwork will only be featured on jewel-case edition. Other editions will have different covers.

    I don't really mind the cover artwork as long as the music is good, because I've got quite high expectations for this one. When an artwork is done astonishingly well, I notice it, when it's bad, I just forget all about it.

    He's the Tommy Wiseau of metal artworks. You just don't know if he's serious with his pile of shit or is a troll genius.


    That made me laugh.

    I know next to nothing about artists so I never heard of him before but yeah, this artwork is truly horrendous. It's baffling to see how many people on FB love it yet here almost everyone hates it. I mean, I like this band and I'm looking forward to the new album, but artwork is a BIG

    Then again, most of Moonspell's artwork sucks in my opinion. Some of them I do like (Wolfheart), but none of them I would call great. But this one has to be the very worst artwork so far.

    Damn, that's good to hear. I hope the others won't suck as much.

    Yeah, I'm the same actually. Good artwork is nice but it doesn't influence my opinion on an album since the music is what's important, not the artwork.

    It seems to change throughout the song.
