A brutal death metal album cover featuring a towering cosmic horror entity, illustrated in a fusion of Mark Riddick’s ink-heavy style and Pushead’s signature pen dotting technique. The monstrous figure is covered in intricate stippling, chaotic linework, and raw textures, giving it a decayed and hollow aesthetic. The creature stands fully visible, with a rotting zombie-like face, hollow glowing eyes, and a grotesquely twisted expression exuding cosmic madness. It wears a towering bishop’s mitre adorned with occult symbols, gripping a massive, ornate staff topped with a gothic cross. Pulsating tendrils of iridescent fire extend from its back, intertwining with eerie lightning in neon blues, toxic purples, and fiery oranges, merging with traditional Japanese motifs like oni masks, dragons, and sacred clouds. The background is an explosion of dynamic, vibrant colors, with swirling psychedelic hues of electric green, crimson red, and ultraviolet, creating an intense, high-energy death metal aesthetic. The artwork features extreme stippling and high-contrast ink shading, blending brutal horror with vibrant chaos. The band name appears in an unreadable, jagged, death metal font at the top, and the album title is in dripping horror typography at the bottom, making it a perfect cover for a brutal, otherworldly album
