great album covers: Paul Schütze ‎– New Maps Of Hell

I haven't done one of these in a while and thought it appropriate after all the weirdness happening on this blog of late. Nothing much to say except that if you familiar with Paul Schütze's music in the early-mid 90s, this album is not very different; offering more of his thickly-layered improvised multi-intruments grooves and textures. However the opening track (the 2-minute intro, if you will) seems to be in perfect sync with the cover design, another one of those "thematics" from the then Extreme label. They too released a lot of interesting music as well as very interesting covers which all followed a format, but "New Maps Of Hell" easily ranks up there amongst some of my favorites.
