Heaven & Hell’s New Album Cover is METAL.

Posted by: Casey Rae-Hunter    Tags:  Black Sabbath, cover art, Dio, Heaven & Hell, Metal, New Album    Posted date:  March 13, 2009  |  4 Comments

Say what you will about Dio-fronted Black Sabbath‘s music, they have the most METAL album cover I’ve seen in some time. The new Heaven & Hell (that’s what they’re calling themselves these days) drops in late April. Dude.

Dude is right. Though without the Shoggothian freak, the rest of the graphics look like a bar of chocolate I’d see in the checkout line at Whole Foods.

Beautiful.

Looks to me like it could be Wes Benscoter’s work, but a quick Googling for art credits on this has yielded nothin’.

Mikhail – and I quote:

[i]The base art for the cover comes from a painting called “Satan” which appears to be by an artist named “Per Øyvind Haagensen” from Norway. The version used on Sabbath’s cover is tweaked slightly.[/i]
