Cool fan art. I think they should hire the guy who did a great scarab for this classic rock mag. Forget his name. He's done official work for the band before.

Nice find. I don't care for it. Dig the concept, but looks too much like a rough sketch. Last cool cover was Arrival. Maybe the finished product will look glossier.

Domestic, or Import?

Prefer the import scarab, but the US version was classy and sleek as well.

Neat to see the E5C4P3 font back. Just from the YouTube clips, its obvious this is the band's most rocking effort since the original Escape, so its fitting.

It looks like that Scarab ate some bad chili for lunch. In all seriousness, I like the simplicity and darkness of the album art. Is that really it, Rip?

The album's theme is balance and Journey and Eclipse (one word on each side of the album cover) both have 7 letters. I wonder if that was intentional? :wink:

I like. Striking and the color scheme suits the name and vibe of the album from the clips I've heard. Love where they put Journey and Eclipse and the font.

I've liked all the covers, except for Raised on Radio and Generations.

Uh-oh, I thought Andrew was going to be surprising us with it as his avatar. as the unveiling.

Dude will be raking in 7 figures again this year. And save the alimony and child support comments. He's got enough dough to buy Detroit. But then again, so do I. :lol:

Thanks Don for finding that clip along with the cover art.. I like it very much--looks like the scarab is causing an eclipse of the sun. You can feel the energy they have for the new songs and for the tour in the clip--this is going to be a very exciting time for the band and their fans. I am so very happy for them.. and us!!

I can not WAIT for that movie!! And yes, it will give another resurgence of Journey music too, I'm sure :lol: I'm not crazy about the fact that they put Tom Cruise in that role, but I saw the play and it is HILARIOUS!!!
