April 30, 2014, 10 years ago
Multicultural blues rockers BLUES PILLS have announced details for the band's forthcoming self-titled debut album. Produced by renowned Don Alsterberg (GRAVEYARD), Blues Pills is set to be released July 25th via Nuclear Blast. The cover art was created by legendary artist Marijke Koger-Dunham.
Commented the band: "The artwork is by the incredible artist Marijke Koger-Dunham. She painted it sometime in the late 60ies, and because we were looking for some 60ies inspired artwork, we thought 'what could be better?' For us, it is a representation of the balance of life, as shown in all the symbolism of natural dualities such as darkness and light, sun and moon, life and death, etc. It shows how opposite forces are interconnected and compliment each other to form a whole. Besides that, it just looks absolutely amazing!“
