Leviathan is really a special cover. Check out this Ahab cover artwork which is very similar: http://www.metalmusicarchives.com/ahab--the-call-of-the-wretched-sea.aspx" rel="nofollow - http://www.metalmusicarchives.com/ahab--the-call-of-the-wretched-sea.aspx

While they are all epic, it has to be Leviathan!
Oh and it is my least favorite album by far...but I do have to admit I love the artwork on Crack the Skye. Probably my second favorite.

Yeah I love that one. I've always seen it online but never knew if that was on any actual albums IRL. Like a special version?

My CD comes with a slipcase that has more of the picture, but not that much of it:

Yeah mine only has parts of it throughout the booklet. I would love to have the whole picture, though.

I'm disappointed by that cover. I like how it breaks away from their art style, but that's about it.

I like the new album art!
At first I was thinking "what the fuck is this shit?" but I grew to like it in a fun type of way. Ya know? It's so silly and kind of terrible it's cool, and Mastodon are no fools...that may have been their intent. Besides, tough to get more metal than a beast with 4 horns, 8 ears and 3 mouths!
It is cool but probably still my least favorite
Pretty much what Jonas said:

^That's really true actually, in terms of color schemes and things. Though to be honest I feel that with a different font or something it could also easily be an indie album cover.

I definitely see the Screaming for Vengeance / Defenders of the Faith style ever since he brought it up.

I'm a bit annoyed that their logo isn't in the same style as it has been for all their past releases. I felt that was one of their things and it kind of loses it in the album cover.
