HORSE THE BAND - A Natural Death Cover Art Revealed
July 17, 2007, 16 years ago
HORSE THE BAND, along with Combat/Koch Records, has just released the album art for A Natural Death (pictured left), which hits the streets August 28th.
Horse The Band enlisted talented LA-based artist Billygoat (David Klein) to bring the ideas of A Natural Death to life. The art was constructed from a six foot long, mixed media diorama which was made out of wood. This diorama will be used as the cover and fold-out insert for the album.
Everything from the intricate woodcutting to the smallest details was done painstakingly by hand. The piece tells a story in six panels that starts with creation and ends with a natural death, illustrating the themes of the record and tying the whole experience together.
The tracklisting for A Natural Death is as follows: 'Hyperborea', 'Murder', 'The Startling Secret Of Super Sapphire', 'The Beach', 'Face Of Bear', 'Crickets', 'New York City', 'Sex Raptor', 'Broken Trail', 'The Red Tornado', 'Treasure Train', 'His Purple Majesty', 'Kangarooster Meadows', 'Rotting Horse', 'I Think We Are Both Suffering From The Same Crushing Metaphysical Crisis' and 'Lif'.
