"However, the new lineup of the band has given us new and fresh touch and an energetic edge to the recording process,Wholesale Jerseys Free shipping, and to the album itself."He added: "The album cover painting is actually a part of a larger picture. The original artwork had this vintage-styled lady holding a horned skull, which, however,Wholesale Jerseys, was not the main point of the art piece. There was something not quite right with the setting, so I made experiments with various versions and framings. Album title was 'Upgradead' at that point in time,Wholesale Jerseys Cheap, and the painting was done with that title in mind. But now, with a changed concept of the artwork, the title did not seem to fit anymore. We did not consider it an A-class name either.
