Their version is the version that most people know. Well, actually, Georgia Satellites did not write that song. Oh, “ Battleship Chains.” Yes, Georgia Satellites. The band have done several cover versions in the past, but I was really surprised to hear the cover of “Battleship Chains.” The band has been renowned over the years for doing different cover versions, and there’s quite a surprise with another cover version on there. It all basically stems from the music and songs and the concepts and the characters, the stories, and there’s a synergy there. Each album cover basically sums up what the album is about. He has his own style and seems to really be fitting the music. He’s been working with Volbeat for a long time now. The artist who did the album cover, his name is Carson Sand. I think it’s a combination of a couple of things. How do you select the cover art? Is it a case of the band calling the artist for an album title, or does he submit images to you? How does that process work? You have used again the same artist with the album cover. We feel really strongly about this record. I think that’s a common thing, though, when you’re in a band and it’s getting bigger and bigger and growing, there’s more pressure on the band to deliver and to take things to the next level with every record. With the success of the last album, does that bring a greater weight of expectation for the release of this one?
