ha, I didn't see that, it was 7 but now a 6

prob because it's their 6th studio album, well technically the media don't seem to class Half Hour Of Power as their first album, more "All Killer No Filler" as their first but it is their first album, It's got 11 songs and it's listed on their website in albums/discography page, so it has to be don't ya think peeps

Listen to SBM & Skumfuk while looking at the cover- proof that it suits the album! "I can't believe all the things that you say" bit from Skumfuk makes it seem like some sort of sick, warped tragedy.

I can tolerate it now, still don't like it. The blood is just ruining it for me for some reason, maybe if it was behind the letters instead of on top of them, I dunno. I mean i get the idea of a 20s 30s film, but it could have been better.

Yeah it looks really amateur, all the pieces like the hand an the rope and the sheet are all kinda poorly cut out, and the hand seems to have different lighting then the rest of the image. They would've been better off with the single cover, it was nice and simple but still looked professional. Oh well, hopefully the CD is still dope.

I said it once, I'll say it again.

Once the album comes out. None of you will care about the cover art. It's all about the songs. It'll look better in person.

My opinion? It's meh. But it's only meh because it's new. It'll grow on me when I have the album :devious:

I like it, but it's not as epic as I hoped.

I get this feeling that the photo shoot in the desert will be nonexistent. It just doesn't seem like it would fit in the album booklet being that the cover is of a crime scene. I hope I'm wrong, because the old cars and everything looked interesting.

However, I can see these photos in the album booklet.

Wasn't what I was hoping for. Well, up until the SBM single artwork, I would of never expected something like this. I would of went for something that wasnt so self explainatory for "Screaming Bloody Murder". After we seen that cover, I knew this was to be expected. I'm not a huge fan of it, but it'll take some tim to grow on me.

psh I don't know what you guys are talking about I love the cover and I did right away when I saw it. I also showed it to two people I know in real life ( one whos a Sum 41 fan and one who isn't) and they both love the cover and said stuff like it's awesome and epic. So yeah just saying...
