Artwork

The album's front cover, was designed by the respected in the field of commerce artist, Alexis Marcou[1] and unlike everything else the band has released, it does not include the band logo or title on the immediate cover. The main aim of the work was to surprise the viewers by presenting them something that they wouldn't have much of a reference point for, securing that way a strong shock value, something that the artist him self calls 'orphan' style.[2]

The cover features a W-shaped Rorschach test formation that has a lemniscate right below it.
