Very nice, seems to me they are trying to go with a Asian/Phillipe type fire they got going there around the Journey Scarab. Pretty cool imagery to the New singer in Arnel. I approve. Kick ass.

They could have put a picture of the Golden Girls on the cover, and I'd still buy it. :wink:

Look at the middle right. There's a small box with a face (smiley?) in there. Wthit?

Interesting touch adding the filipino golden leaves.

Overall a good cover.

Can anyone make out the image at far center right?
It looks somewhat similar to the ancient Filipino baybayin symbol "Ka".

This is what I'm talking about:

Image

Character in the center of this archaic Philippine flag.

as for the album art as a whole....
The sun on the horizon as a background reinforces a faint,
Far East / Philippine flavor. The flame scrolls are at once both
East Asian AND contemporary Egyptian.

It's a very sensual image, and very intriguing indeed

To me, it looks like it's breaking through the ground; a "Spring re-birth", if you will...like we're seeing it in "cross-section".

....or, I've been Gardening too much.

Here's some connections I found to the title and the actual book in the Bible:

...and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength.
Revelation, 1. 14

And I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of a great thunder: and I heard the voice of harpers harping with their harps:
And they sung as it were a new songand no man could learn that song but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth.
Revelation, 14. 2

I will shew unto thee the judgement of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters.
Revelation, 17. 1 (ok.... :wink:)

The street of the city was pure gold.
Revelation, 21. 21

It'll do. I don't give a shit about the cover art. The substance better fucking rock!

Ah, I thought the connection was that Journey is giving birth to the anti-christ and those that have disapeared from these forums over the years have been raptured away.

That character in the middle of that Red Flag that looks like an Capital I is the sound "ka" as in KAH.

The Philippine alphabet isn't a letter alphabet at all, it's a system of symbols based on phonetic sounds.

It's very popular in the tatoo biz. The one below is from Brandon Vera, UFC contender:

ttango1,

exactly what I indicated in the first of my two posts. :)
However, it seems it isn't part of the cover art.

The 'box' must be just a clip or clamp of some kind on the edge of the artwork,
cand got included in the snapshot of the same. Then the hosted image
was replaced with a cleaner one, sana clip/clamp/whatever...

Here it was, before the "clean" images went up:

Ah, Carol, I love that pic of SP in your avatar - I haven't seen that one in a long time! Just what I needed after this hectic week. :)
