DENNIS SIEBEIJN, UNDERAPPRECIATED COVER ARTIST

There’s a lot of talk right now about John Baizley, the Baroness frontman who also is the cover artist du jour.

There’s considerably less talk about Dennis Siebeijn at Damnengine, though, which is too bad, ’cause, like Baizley, he’s done some of the coolest, most distinctive metal cover art in recent memory, including recent releases from Chimaira, Job for a Cowboy, Sworn Enemy, and See You Next Tuesday. Siebeijn’s work is usually epic in scope and immediately captures the eye; I suspect he’s not getting as much press because it doesn’t look quite as “home made” as Baizley’s work. Still, I think it’s pretty rad. Look at some samples after the jump.

    This guy is good. Go to his website and check out his “Stairway to Heaven” design. Fucking awesome.

    Damnengine’s amazing. I found him because he’s a member of deviantART. He quickly became one of my favorite artists there.
