HEADHUNTER D.C. have finally revealed the cover artwork of their forthcoming fifth studio album, entitled "…In Unholy Mourning…". The responsible for the work is the Spanish artist Juanjo Castellano (www.juanjocastellano.com), who has already drawn covers for bands like VOMITORY, NOMINON, SATHANAS, ANAL VOMIT, BLASPHERIAN among others. You can check it out here. "We are very pleased with the excellent job done by Mr. Juanjo Castellano, a real masterpiece, no doubt about it! He just managed to absorb the context behind the album title, creating the visual atmosphere we were looking for and really needed for the album cover. The guy kills! This is one of our best covers, definitely! Horns up to Juanjo!!!", said the singer Sérgio "Baloff" Borges. In partnership with Juanjo Castellano, Brazilian artist Alcides Burn (www.theburnart.blogspot.com) (BLOOD RED THRONE, TORTURE SQUAD, ACHERON, SANCTIFIER and HEADHUNTER D.C. themselves) developed the entire album layout process. "… In Unholy Mourning …" will be released in South America in the second half of 2011 through a partnership between the labels Eternal Hatred and Mutilation Records, both from Brazil. The material will be released in a deluxe digipak packaging, and will contain two booklets (being one with all lyrics translated into Portuguese) and an exclusive patch for the Brazilian issue.
