^I love it when bands use famous paintings for their covers. That's a John Martin painting, and was part of his The Last Judgment triptych, I believe. It's called The Great Day of His Wrath. Fucking epic painting. Another great painting is Dore's Enigma, which appears on the cover of While Heaven Wept's album Of Empire Forlorn:
and the album...

Hell yeah, I didn't know that. Thanks for the info. That's one of the best dark ambient albums out there too. |

People also called Kiss metal back then, does that still apply?

sorry to drag this up but does any other genre of music have a sliding scale of what fits under it that changes over time? It is quite a bizarre idea. I think if a band were ever actually called heavy metal then they are, permanently.
