A hollow universe in space
Been thinking about this for a while now...
When i listen to any Maiden album, there seems to be a connection between the sound/production/vibe/songs on the album and it's artwork. Even the colours chosen for the cover art seem to connect with the music somehow, and i don't even mean thematically like Pink Floyd and other bands, i really mean in terms of overall vibe.
I'll give SSOASS as an example... Those songs, to me, sound like the icebergs on the cover. The imagery for the whole album really goes along with the songs.
Now the thing is, do you guys first of all feel the same thing or not and, if you do feel the same way as me, do you think the band has that in mind when they choose their artworks? Or is it all coincidence? I mean... 16 studio albums in, that would be a huge coincidence, but still...
