Behind The Artworks: SPESIMIN - SPESIMIN (2025)
Our album cover was drawn by Dan Angel, who was also the engineer of our SKULL WORSHIP EP. We recorded in Dan's studio, which doubles as his art space, filled with sculptures and massive charcoal and oil pastel drawings lining the walls. While tracking, we all latched onto a specific drawing hanging by the mixing board–a close up of a monstrous, gooey face with glistening eyes and clenched teeth.
We all immediately recognized the huge drawing as the perfect version of SPESI–the disembodied brain hellbent on destruction from our self-titled song. BORN IN THE CRYPT had a brainstem on its cover too, but this updated version perfectly embodied the themes so central to our band–monstrosity, the mysteries of consciousness, and violent retribution. Because the drawing demanded to be an album cover and Dan was enthusiastic about us using it, we quickly moved ahead with the plan to put out our discography compilation LP simultaneously with our new EP–an idea we had toyed with but not yet decided on.
We're thrilled to present our full discography in this definitive format.
