Hi Mates, last weekend I went to Reina Sofia Museum in Madrid. In this Museum I saw a Dalí Art ('La Memoria de la Mujer' in english 'Woman's Memory'), what reminds me some musical covers... (the heads of the top of the art)




Yes, Phideaux 'Great Leap' !





Perhaps also with 'Doomsday Afternoon'? not the same heads, but, maybe in other Dalí art...

What do you think?

Yeah, it's a pretty clear ripoff/inspiration. Kitsch at its finest.

I had no idea, is Doomsday Afternoon from a Dali painting as well?

That explains alot of ideas present in the album actually. Dali-inspired albums always seem to be brilliant.

Long time Dali fan, I recognized he was doing Dali style artwork for those albums.  I didn't realize that The Great Leap was actually taken from a Dali painting, cool.

Huh.  Don't think I've seen that painting, and I've seen a lot of Dali's work.

Thought Industry's first two albums had Dali paintings on the cover.


BRUTAL.
