MESHUGGAH’S ALBUM ART FOR KOLOSS IS KOLOSSALLY KREEPY

Last week Vince did his Woodward n’ Bernstein thing and, discovering that Nuclear Blast’s German webstore listed the new Meshuggah album under the title Koloss, deduced that the album was actually titled Colossus — because “koloss” is German for “colossus.”

And he was so close! In fact, the album is actually just called Koloss. They’re tricky, that Meshuggah!

ANYWAY, the album’s cover art has now been unveiled, and while at first glance I’m not entirely sure I understand what’s going on, I do know that a) I want to study it further, and b) I’m feeling a little intimidated by it. In other words, it is the perfect visual representation of Meshuggah’s music. Check it out:

Koloss comes out March 27 via Nuclear Blast.
