Hey Travis I know you weren't on this record, but do you know where the artwork on the cover is from? Or does anyone else know?

I always thought it was something that the band had come up with but I just saw the exact same artwork on a split noise cd. So i was just curious were it was from...

Its an old overused image that you can find from hare krishna books and pamphlets. Ben got it from some pamphlet. Its funny, Ben is listed in the credits as being a band member but he didn't do anything, hahah, he's just the guy that put it out. I think that was one of the stipulations for him releasing it or something like that. That 7" really was just supposed to be a "hot cake" (hey, their words, not mine) to sell at locust shows. Cattle was pretty much just a full on side project of the locust until I joined like 5 or 6 months after they started - the week they got that 7" in their hands which by that time, they were already over it and wanted to do more extreme/brutal stuff so that's where I came in. And then Troy. And then Josh and so on and so on. I always did like that cover though. The vampire image on the other side was kind of a dumb idea, but that front image is great.

I've always wondered about that myself, I wish I could find a copy of that sitting around somewhere ;_;
