Reminds me very much of their debut's cover.

Like in every Ensiferum release, we have water, the same old guy and the same suomi shield, but this time there is an aurora borealis ha ha... Musically, the awesomeness is absolutely guaranteed!

Love Wåhlin's work... I swear every other metal band on earth has had a cover done by him.

Written by moe5512 on 27.06.2012 at 22:19 So the presence of an old bearded man makes it a catholic propaganda poster?  I really see nothing religious on it...

Absolutely mazing album cover, I love the colour! But I guess this will be the best part of the album :-/

You can clearly see the artist improve when you compare Ensiferum's oldest covers to the newest. Cool. I think I like this cover the best too.  For some reason red seems a bit out of place yet makes the cover awesome? whatever :p

The same shield...and the same guy...always! Hahahahahaha!!!  We can expect a really awesome disc, at least after the release of "FROM AFAR".

Love the artwork. Wåhlin's work is always fantastic. The colours are amazing and it looks kinda similair to the first album. can't wait to hear the music now.

I love Iron's and From Afar's cover, but this one is seems to be a bit better, although it reminds me more of computer-painted stuff...

I like the album artwork and use of red. I interpreted the "pink" tone purely as mist coming off the water. Here's to hopefully a good album too!

The red probably symbolizes the blood of the unsung heroes that have been slain in battle.

First time he isn't holding his sword. Or at least like, leaning on it.
