Ok I'm baffled why you're all still using that midi site.
I could float here forever

Apparently someone in the Brazilian community was able to read braille off it and it translates to "Darkness" (remember "complete black"?)

Huh, guess I was dead wrong. They ARE Tool.

Deftones are goin' ULTRA BLACK like the new Nas song lol:

Just a little observation /interpretation. Also I'm certain this is not with the band had in mind, just some thoughts I have.

If you look at the picture in a broad perspective it could be viewed as stars in the night sky, except in a digital format. Maybe this is what computers or machines see when they look into the night sky.

Or could also be interpreted as our entire universe is simulated through a machine, all the stars and all of space included.
When people whisper it makes her nervous.

Interesting take. I like it.

Damn, that's a really long-winded way to communicate a single word. I didn't realize Braille was so horribly inefficient
The extra "l" and silent "e" should have been a dead giveaway.

False alarm

just my own dumb ass/./.

Fuck I really hope I'm driving home from work tonight blaring a new song.

Penicks

fifteen pages discussing a black background with 10 white pixels on it

nicklav

That's what four years of no album news will get you.

I would love to see some progress in the image tomorrow

it also seems like they removed the album title from the source code again lol

So are we 100% sure that this isn't the final album cover? Because I can see it making sense relating to the album title, but it'd be...boring. So boring. Completely different from Gore though, that's for sure. I'm so glad we finally have SOMETHING now at least. Shame that I'm moving house on Tuesday and will have no Internet access for god knows how long though lol so hopefully if they're releasing a single soon, it'll be before that.

Wait, I didn't notice there was a white background with black dots posted somewhere else too, where was that posted?

I hope it's like Gore where they gave more pieces to the album artwork everyday.

I really hope this just evolves over the weekend, and not the entire week. Unfortunately, I have a suspicion the single is a week away. I'd probably bet money on it. No insider info or something I found. Just my gut feeling. I'd love to be wrong. Regardless, shit is happening and I love it.

No, I think it's definitely a face like sharinglungs and others pointed out. It will be a slow reveal, kinda like some of the other album covers.

I love, love, love the idea of an electric light board forming into a crying face. Like a machine who figured out how to have emotions and is instantly depressed. It's kinda brilliant.

RaptureWS

Another observation. The image is very much in the vein of computing/circuitry/machine style. Think about the definition of the album title. All of a sudden, it makes sense. If this was the album cover, or close to it, I'd be happy. I think the remaining artwork would expand on it. Remember how Fear Inoculum's cover seemed meh after that long wait? But once we got all the artwork the accompanied it, it was fucking great. Maybe same applies here.

Also, this isn't relevant to the album but interesting to see in light of the image we got today. The 2nd image in particular is fantastic. It's called "Light Art". Check it out. https://mymodernmet.com/light-art-created-using/
