Below is the official album art which was inspired off a piece
created by artist James White aka Signalnoise in collboration with artist Francis Hoang.
We were unable to obtain the original since it tied up in legal issues.

at Mystery Box we were given the green light to use
that original piece for inspiration to create the new album art.
Very special thanks to James, and his manager Alex for
allowing us to create our own offshoot from that idea. Very cool!
