Behind The Artworks: Ashen Horde - The Harvest (2026)

The cover art was created by an extremely talented artist named Venus Kohana. I actually. discovered her work at an art show at my wife’s work. There were several pieces of hers that I loved, but the image of the two red skeletons really caught my attention. I bought a print of it at the show, and after staring at it for a few days, I realized I wanted it to be the cover art. Even the color scheme fits with the Autumn vibe. I tracked Venus down through Instagram and asked if she'd be down to license it to us. Luckily, she said yes, and I'm so happy about it. It's unique and cool, and very metal; it even inspired the lyrics to the title track, which closes the album.
