Cover Art:
"The new artwork has been selected and can be described as an ‘impressive iconography’. I think the artwork is gonna be another great classic moment for Priest. We’re noticed for British Steel or Sad Wings of Destiny or Screaming for Vengeance and I think that the artwork will come into the same degree of the qualities of those three. I think this new artwork has that kind of essence. It’s another unique moment. The artwork is always very, very important for this band. I think that what we wanted to try and do with this particular piece of artwork was try and capture all of the elements of the band in certain imagery, and we appear to have been able to have done that and we’re all kind of looking at it now in it’s final stages and nodding and agreeing."
— Rob Halford (2004)
