I got my ticket for their show here on April 25th. I am quite excited about this upcoming event of EPIC PROPORTIONS.

that cover smacks of cheesy photoshop filters
the drawings themselves are cool, but that background is awful, the text frame is forming tangents with the top of the dude's heads and ...it's just gaudy as fuck
they used a god damn cloud filter on the background!
it could have been incredible
but instead some awful designer took some good illustrator's work and fucked it up.
I guess Mastodon isn't bad, but I can't really listen to much of it without getting bored.
They don't rock hard enough for my liking.
I should punch your mother. I would then be known as a person who is a mother puncher.

The guy who did the artwork on the album is a guy called Paul Romano. Also, he does all the work on the album covers, including the placement of images so if the apparently shitty graphic designer is also the artist who drew everything.
Edit: YES I KNOW (now) SARS BOY POSTED HIS SITE ALREADY. FUCK YOU.

The guy who does the Mastodon art is normally fantastic, I think he just tried to go a little too psychedelic with the Crack the Skye art. I still like it, but it looks a little cheesy compared to the other stuff.
There is a paraplegic and the only way that he can go anywhere is if he astral travels. He goes out of his body, into outer space and a bit like Icarus, he goes too close to the sun, burning off the golden umbilical cord that is attached to his solar plexus. So he is in outer space and he is lost, he gets sucked into a wormhole, he ends up in the spirit realm and he talks to spirits telling them that he is not really dead. So they send him to the Russian cult, they use him in a divination and they find out his problem. They decide they are going to help him. They put his soul inside Rasputin's body. Rasputin goes to usurp the czar and he is murdered. The two souls fly out of Rasputin's body through the crack in the sky(e) and Rasputin is the wise man that is trying to lead the child home to his body because his parents have discovered him by now and think that he is dead. Rasputin needs to get him back into his body before it's too late. But they end up running into the Devil along the way and the Devil tries to steal their souls and bring them down…there are some obstacles along the way
