Devour Cover Artwork

Here's the cover for the new album. Just got it via newsletter..

PreOrder on Monday.

not what i expeced but i like it haha

seems a bit too hipsterish/ modern for daves music but we'll see if this is a hint on a somehow "clearer" music style on the new album

I don't yet have an opinion about this album cover. Not was I was expecting either but I'm curious about how it relates to the album.

It doesn't do anything for me but considering I will probably never look at it again once I get the CD it doesn't bother me It's too stark and I have a hard time relating it to the songs I've heard so far on the album.

At least a lot of room to sign it.

btw: Who´s the lady on the cover? Someone "special" or just a model, which was taken for the shooting?

From his newsletter:

I was staying with him while recording Devour out in Los Angeles, and he suggested putting a falcon on the cover due to the fact that it is one of the fastest animals in the world and a deadly predator. Thanks to Matt for that killer idea, thanks to Annie for posing with that intense, amazing creature (indoors, no less), and thanks to Patrick Morales for getting the amazing shot and for laying it out so well. The rest of the concept for the cover and the album art came from the lyrical themes in the record ...

So it seems that the lady on the cover might be a friend ...

Thanks for the information!
