To AMENRA, aesthetics are not merely supplementary to the musical experience but essential to it, and for their monumental new album MASS V, they have surpassed themselves. Today we can now proudly unveil the artwork for the album which will see the light of day on 26 November on Neurot Recordings.
All pictures supporting the artwork of MASS V were taken by Stefaan Temmerman and the artwork itself was made and assembled by Webecameaware. On the subject of artwork, the band revealed the following personal testimonial about how it came to be…
It was a long and cold night.” - CHVE
