More A Thousand Suns Art

Second one is creeping

 

it looks sooooo cool

 

Really love these pictures. Hopefully the music is as epic as the art work.

 

Sorry but I like the third picture. When do you ever come across a creature that's a hybrid of a bird, octopus with a tiger's jaw!

 

This is very very cool, did anyone noticed that the snakes's tails are like the horns of that head, it could be the devil. Just saying hehe

 

The album cover artwork they chose gives us only a tiny little glimpse of what is to come. Is that the meaning behind this? What's the story with the artwork and how does it tie into the overall context of the album? Remember the artwork for the Vinyl? Perhaps that abstract, cosmic, and colourful symmetry will be involved in the album somehow. Just about 100% of the art we've seen so far has been erie black and white combinations, so I think we are in for something special in the music video. Mike and other band members will definitely share more info regarding this big puzzle in the future.

 

If only today was September. I would have bought the album already, but NO it's only fuckin August!!!!!!!

 

The art is freaking awesome but... No elephant?

 

This is actually kinda scary .lol

 

Does anyone else think that the second one would make an amazing tattoo?

And in terms of 'what were they thinking in picking the cover art that they did?' I have said a few times that I think its really appropriate for the title of the album, the whole theme is based around a nuclear explosion, and a dove is the universal symbol of peace in the world. They are basically showing that symbol being obliterated by a nuclear blast.

 

it has a very native american theme too it

IMO

 

Uh.. is that last one part bird part octopus? O_O Oh wow...

 

love these
2nd one reminds me of 30 seconds to mars

 

In all honesty, as someone who wasn't the biggest fan of the cover they did choose, to me these pieces prove that having something slightly more elaborate =/= having something better.

If nothing else the one they did choose is a lot classier and more mature looking, whereas these aren't so much, or at least I don't think so. They'd be good for certain other bands but probably not for the direction Linkin Park seem to want to go in.

 

Don't really like em... but its OK

Strange things is quite old m8 just enjoy it

 

I don't really like these. I prefer the simplistic cover and style they've gone with now.
