Floridian Death Metal supergroup Inhuman Condition has unleashed their killer new artwork for their upcoming new album, Rat God, due out later in 2021 via Blood Blast distribution for digital and Black Serpent Records on vinyl. Working with legendary metal covers artist Dan Goldsworthy (Accept, Cradle Of Filth, Xentrix, Alestorm) the artwork matches the promise of this sick new music to come. Check out the album covers here.
Goldsworthy said: “This project was a huge honor and pleasure to be a part of. Having been a huge fan of Floridian death metal for the better part of 3 decades, I can’t begin to express how all the guys involved in this album have influenced my own musical and artistic journey (“Leprosy” and “Spiritual Healing” are two of my favorite album covers of all time), so when Jeramie asked me to be on board I jumped at the chance! Regarding the cover itself, the band already had a fairly strong idea of the main concept we were going to go for, but gave me the creative control to proceed with my interpretation. Whilst there is a slightly deeper figurative meaning behind the art, in a literal sense I see the main character existing somewhere between Norman Bates and the Picture of Dorian Grey. As far as I’m concerned you can’t beat the thrash/death metal album art of the late 80s/early 90s, but hopefully this cover does the legacy of that era justice!”
Inhuman Condition recently announced its partnership with Blood Blast Distribution, who will be handling their digital distribution for the album, and with Black Serpent Records who will be releasing the album on vinyl. No release date has been announced yet. A teaser video was released a few weeks ago containing a demo of a new song, which can be viewed below.
The band counts members from iconic acts such as former members of Massacre and Death members, plus current Obituary, Venom Inc, The Absence, and Goregäng members. They are finishing up their debut album at drummer Jeramie Kling and guitarist Taylor Nordberg’s Smoke & Mirrors Productions in Spring Hill, Florida.
