That artwork looks like imitation Simon Bisley. I don't think it's actually him but it's a similar style.

That might not be a far stretch.

Working through some more 2017 albums. This seems really good. I thought it'd be way more death metal but I'm loving it. Will check out pt.2 later  :corn
I mean they're way more black metal than death metal but
Act 2 is definitely heavier also

Nice...

I mean this is the sort of artwork I remember Simon Bisley doing



I love his style. That GWAR album just feels a bit like someone trying to copy his style, but not as good! The arms of the blue guy in the bottom left are classic Bisley style  :heart

Nice to see some love for this album.  One of the few albums that I enjoy listening to from start to finish.

I hadn't spun it in quite some time and really enjoyed it. Illumination Theory is just so  :metal

Totally, I really love this album actually.  I prefer it over at least 5 of DT's other albums, probably more than 5 in reality  :lol

Ok yea, Act II is certainly heavier. You're right about black metal levels. Reminds me of Dimmu Borgir in places, especially those harsh vocals.

So I've been on holiday in Marrakech this week and I've been listening almost exclusively to my Spotify playlists. Been getting through some really great albums that I've been meaning to check out for ages. Current two:

Two classics, Paul!
would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.  ;D
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol

I always try to love Hemispheres. I do love the 2nd side of the old vinyl but Part 2 Of Cygnus is poor compared to the first. To be fair, I enjoyed it this morning as I tried not to think about th3 lyrics too much.
