Album Artwork Rating
8/10
An album cover that perfectly matches the mood of the music within it. The eerie expressions of each member of Lankum set a sinister tone, which may not prepare you for the album's beauty, but this difference in emotion is what Lankum aims to convey. I particularly love the inclusion of an illustration by Gustave Doré along the bottom - a sea of figures drowning, representing the dark nature of the album's music.
