Artist: Andrew Archer
“We wanted a cover image that is impossible to ignore, even if you think it’s ugly as hell,” - Jonathan Higgs (Everything Everything)
My thoughts: Gorgeous gradient, bold graphics... the artist was inspired by faith healers and it certainly succeeds in capturing a pivotal and ecstatic moment in this character. This music is overwhelming at times, just like this image. In saying that the lines around the fingers and composition bothers me, but I appreciate the style for what it is. 9/10
