IN SOMNIPHOBIA: ELIRAN KANTOR MADE ANOTHER GORGEOUS ALBUM COVER FOR SIGH

All metal fans should be familiar with the work of artist Eliran Kantor by now; Kantor has done incredible work for Testament, Atheist, and Sodom, amongst others, including the stunning cover for Sigh’s 2009 Scenes from Hell. His work is really, well, genius.

Now Sigh have unveiled Kantor’s latest breathtaking masterpiece — the album art for their upcoming release, In Somniphobia. What does it have to do with fear of sleep? I’m not quite sure, although it definitely has a dreamy quality to it — at a first glance, it looks pretty straight-forward, but the more you study it in detail, the crazier and stranger it gets. You can check it out below, or go here to see a much bigger version.

In Somniphobia is scheduled for a March release via Candlelight Records.
