Whether making 10-minute thrash epics on Custom Killing or playing the same song 14 times (thus being the real inspiration behind Dragonforce) on Shotgun Justice, they've always managed to deliver and make some of the best songs for making roadkill out of senior citizens. If there was a speed limit in music they would have broken it, rebuilt it, burnt it half to death, gang-raped it on top of a jet fighter till it had atomic AIDS, had it watch American Idol auditions 73 hours a day for 2 weeks while Michael Jackson humped its leg (these guys haven't made an album since 1997), and then had Chuck Norris stare at it till it crumbled of fear and came on fire. Also, they made shitty album covers.
Note that this is merely their SECOND worst album cover.
Oh yeah!
And this IS its real back cover...but since I somehow managed to find one of their albums at the mall for 10 euros, I'll talk about it instead.
The album is Decibels. Their latest and possibly last album. Since I've actually got the album itself, I might as well talk about this one in a little more detail.
Before I go to the cover, I want to throw in a little extra from my usual posts.
Basically what I got with then album was a nice little booklet, the CD and a little brochure from Plastic Head Mail Order, and when I opened it and put the disc in the player, it looked like this:
So, you'd think that the band was a trio during the recording of this album. HAHAHAHAHA!!!!! Not a chance! We fooled you, sucker! .|.|.|.|.
Just like we fooled you into thinking this would be a shitty album, by the cover.

Now, I must definitely agree that this cover is approximately 2341 times better than the other ones by this band, but that's like saying that eating turds for breakfast is better than being mutilated.
Also, while reading the notes I found this.
So they mean that they didn't simply google "guy covering ears" and put the first result on the cover, and instead, made a photoshoot of the guy covering his ears, so why is he barechest? Ok, maybe he's a construction worker. But why's he translucent then? Is he a late construction worker? And if that's what he is, then shouldn't the album be called The Adventures Of Roland's Ghost, Who Can't Bare The Noise Of Buildings Crumbling After Being Stricken By A Giant Half Of A Razor Blade, instead of Decibels? On the other hand, then you're going perilously close to Pink Floyd territory, and the cover should have then looked like this.
