I substituted layout work for cover art some time ago, but I still like this piece I did. This was requested by Cosmic Atrophy, who have since atrophied and blown away into the cosmos. Since the art was unused and unpaid for (though to be clear, I didn't request a fee at the time), I'd like to find a home for it.

Any death metal bands with a suitably Lovecraftian bent - if you'd be interested in using this for a cover for something, drop me a line.

Sorry that it went unused. The album would've been sweet if Cory just didn't drop off the face of the world.

I know dude. Still bugs me that I'll never get to hear that album. :(

But hopefully I can at least find someone to adopt this slimy bucket of tentacles.

If my old computer didn't crash I could've sent you the instrumentals with my drums on it... But it's all gone. Maybe one day he'll take his head out of his ass but I really don't think that'll ever happen.

holy fucking tits
thats awesome
I wish I didn't suck so I could use that
bah. maybe I'll get a doom/death project actually going.. cant end up too terrible if I breed Coffins, Ishimura, and Hooded Menace. I've always wanted to write Lovecraftian doom. If it's still available by the time I get fuckin' anything done I'd want it.

Thanks - and it very possibly might be, so if you do get something going, just PM me. (By the way I'm not familiar with Ishimura really, but Coffins and Hooded Menace are both great.)

Ishimura is one of my creations. I'm actually surprised he meantioned it as well since it's def not the same style but I guess in some ways it is in the atmosphere.

I can see it after revisiting. I guess since I had different bands in mind while creating it I'm just dead set thinking of those even though it doesn't sound totally like them.

Thanks though, I appreciate the feedback!

Wow, that Ishimura is wild shit. The dissonance is almost overwhelming (in a good way). Nice job, man!

Thanks man I greatly appreciate it! I'm just waiting on the vocalist to finish recording cause I have the full length completed writing and musically.

Buh-bump. Did some additional texture work on this today which got me thinking I should still try to find a home for it.
