CORMORANT Reveal Cover Art And Track Listing for “Earth Diver”
Wednesday, 26th February 2014
The Bay Area alchemists behind the progressive black/death/trad metal of CORMORANT have completed work on Earth Diver, the follow-up to 2011’s critically acclaimed Dwellings, and are finally ready to share a few more details about the release. The new full-length is slated for an April 2014 release, and features mind-boggling cover art from accomplished artist Sam Ford of Wizard Rifle (COBRA, WITCH MOUNTAIN, etc.).
The band collectively state, “We’re excited to reveal Sam Ford’s awesome artwork for Earth Diver…it has been several months in the making and worth every second! The cover draws upon many of the lyrical themes featured on the album, and it’s part of a 4-panel presentation that includes further custom artwork from Sam.”
CORMORANT has also elected to reveal the album’s track listing to provide further insight into the oncoming storm.
