➤ Simple Guidelines

➧1. Include the original album name, author and year of release. If you do not know some of the required information, state that in either the title or top-level comment e.g. [Author/s - Album Name (Unknown Year)]. The reason we ask for this information is that you can only search on the content of post titles, not comments.

➧2. No low-effort/low-quality posts. Posts made to c/albumartporn are expected to be of high quality and have serious effort put behind them. The album cover should be clean, not have any urls/website watermarks in them.

➧3. Be Original

➧4. Be respectful. Harassment, abuse, name calling, and/or threats of any kind is not tolerated here. Any content, whether an image or a comment, that includes any kind of bigoted language or hate speech will be met with a permanent ban.

➧5. No off-topic Content Never post anything that is off-topic (i.e. not album art) or that contains gory material.

➧6. No spam or reposts. Do not submit more than one of the same post/comment on this community or across multiple communities. In addition, please wait at least 3 months before reposting an image that has already been posted to c/albumartporn, and do not repost from the top of all time.

➧7. No advertisement or self-promotion. Do not use this community to advertise or self-promote. This includes (but is not limited to) websites, articles, blog posts, and brands.

➧8. No memes, gifs, videos, audios. Just album covers

➧9. Tag NSFW Posts · Nudity: Obvious, implied or strategically covered · Content that is “sexually explicit”. Gore, both human and non-human is not allowed. No spam.

➠Feel free to report any content that does not respect these rules.

What has been described as “boss battle music for the enemies,” this heavy metal instrumental album features what is technically concept art for the video game but nonetheless matches for your eyes what the ensuing music is for your ears.

The development of the one after this one, for Doom Eternal, is a sad story and a good cautionary tale.

~~This is a remake of the original DOOM's cover:~~

Edit: Wait, my bad, this is the alt art that isn't

It definitely looks inspired by that original art. Here’s the frame from the in-game end credits that is the remake of that art.

I believe the art in the original post is meant to be moments later, like the Slayer lifted the imp into the air in order to get the upper hand

Oh come now, it's the cover are for the game not specifically made for the album

[–] 4am@lemm.ee 4 points 4 months ago

Yeah but it was used for the album, so it’s both.

[–] fartsparkles@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

Good album. Good art. The full illustration is awesome.

[–] BmeBenji@lemm.ee 1 points 4 months ago

ackchually it wasn’t the official cover art for the game, it was an alternate printed on the back of the slip cover in the disc case.

This is the cover art displayed everywhere
