If you didn't know what the band was all about and saw just the cover you might think this was psychedelic rock record from the 60's. Using the original demo art would have been superb.
Shades of Easter Everywhere, maybe? That truly wasn't the intent, but I can see what you mean. Of course, if you want to see the original demo art you can always flip to page 1 of the accompanying booklet.
Of course I saw and have seen the original jcard before. I'm saying these modern designs (trust me, you are not the only label that has done it, they are legion) leave me cold. They don't look metal. Especially classic 80's metal.

I'm glad I ordered the die-hard version before US postage went through the roof. I don't consider it to be absolutely top-notch material, I like it a lot though and it is of course essential for every fan of TX metal of olde.
