Why do metal album covers almost always have a 2edgy4u aesthetic? It's like pottery

It's 10000 times better than Kendrick Lamer's cover nu-male

It's a tradition at this point
We know it's cheesy but whatever

because they hire artists instead of their ketamine dealer's friend who has a cracked version of photoshop on their mac pro

maybe because they're trying to convey what the music's going to sound like on the cover? like the point of most album covers?

I love hand drawn album art

call me when Kanye has contributed to music half as much as Michael McDonald sweetie

who cares, the pic you posted looks nice regardless

Not that user but I don't even know who that is

>implying Michael McDonald was a neckbeard like yourself

he's a popular hip hop artist who recently married a hobbit

You haven't watched Wizards!

how embarrassing!

If you are going to make fun of metal covers you could do a lot worse than that pic. That's on the classy/restrained end of the scale

OP is perfectly aware of that, you know.

he looks like an irrelevant greybeard motherfucker to me

It's just death metal and it's subgenres that have shit edgy covers.

why not? it's expression. but I'm not a fan of this idea that artists have to stick to some idea of maturity or tastefulness

at least they have a sincere interest in whatever retarded shit is on their cover

I mean pic related is one of my all time favotite albums but both the cover and the name sucks ass

not true by the way
