W2MN Cover Art?

Post by andyrew » Mon Jun 13, 2011 11:24 pm

How do you think the cover art will look like for the new album? I'm picturing Alice winking, with 2 fingers up, spiders coming down his hair and a dark background....but that would be like the ghostbusters 2 cover and kinda cheesy...
Any thoughts?

I'm going for something far more dark and menacing. A cross between the original and ACAS.

That's a polite request not an order

i hope it's exactly like the original, only with an updated and older looking Alice!

I hope it's not a horrible 'cheap' and tacky artwork like 'Dragontown' or 'Raise your fist and yell' that looks like some small independent label has licenced the tracks and bunged them out with an artwork budget of £0.04!!!

With Ernie doing the artwork I highly doubt that will be the case :alice:

It should be an awesome cover with Ernie invlolved! Although I don't mind the other album covers, I feel that the newer ones are just simple close ups of alices' face with different colour and angles. If you compare DD and The Eyes, their virtually identical. I hope this 1 will bring fourth some new elements in the background like holographic flies and spiders that move!! Will Drew Struzan be involved too? He was also involved in the original W2M cover and actually created the artwork.

I agree completely. Maybe change up the colouring. This is supposedly a darker nightmare, so use darker colours. Of course, a new portrait of Alice as well, as he has aged. But in general, keep it very similar to the original Nightmare artwork.
