Heavy Metal Cover Girls: Standing On The Shore

  Day Three of this week's Cover Girl extravaganza and I've managed to come up with another brand new theme to explore.
 Now my original plan was to continue the "Colours" theme and do ladies wearing Black dresses but while I was pulling pics from my stash I got distracted, and frankly this seemed a much more interesting idea.

  So tonight I'm going to share a collection of  album covers where women are hanging about at the seaside.

Not having summertime fun, oh no, no.  This lot are doing some proper moping and gazing sadly out at the waves.

 I am rather surprised at how many of these I turned out to have. 

But as I always say;"If an idea is worth doing, it's worth somebody else nicking." 

Narwhal Tusk - Widow's Walk EP (Russia 2009)

Heavy metal cover girls Black dress
   By this point she'd lost all hope of his ship coming home. The Grey Widowmaker had claimed another husband.
 But every night she comes here and watches the sea with saltwater in her eyes.

Narwhal Tusk are Symphonic Metal.
Digging the little keyboard solo. 


 Just for a change I thought I'd try flexing my narrative muscles rather than taking the piss. Don't expect it to last.

The Eternal Sea  - S/T (NZ 2015)

Rock album cover blonde woman
She take a moment to listen to the waves and the call of the seabirds one last time...
And then walks away from the ocean forever, bare feet leaving tracks in the sand.

I was expecting moody Gothic Metal but this lot are..I dunno... groovy Hard Rock. 


Gallows Pole: And Time Stood Still (Austria 2013)

Afterwards the onlookers all agreed on one thing.
When the girl in white reached the end of the pier, she took one last step and was gone.
The weird part was, when she walked off the pier to vanish, she was climbing up ...

Gallows Pole are a veteran outfit that have drifted into Melodic Hard Rock


This is turning out to be quite an international selection isn't it?

Selene - Still Dreaming Single (UK 2014)

Nobody knows why her occasional sleepwalking always bring her to the quay as the sun rises.
Maybe she's hoping to finally meet somebody again.

Selene - Paradise Over EP (UK 2014)

The sad lady from the big house liked to stand on the rocks and watch the tall ships come by.
Wishing she was sailing with them to warm lands and happiness.

Selene are Symphonic Metal.
Since they have a liking for sad women on their album covers you can expect them to pop up in future installments of HMCG.
I also wouldn't mind hearing more of them.



Diabulus In Musica -Argia (Spain 2014)

"What anchor? This anchor? 
I found it.
Yes it was underwater at the time. What's your point?
What shipwreck would that be then? "

Don't mess with Sirens folks.

This band are Symphonic Metal and not bad at all. 


Dotma - Sleep Paralyses  (Finland 20110

Is it just me or is she trailing blood?
Might explain why she seems to be begging for help.

I think that's my cue to pack it in for the night so I'll leave with one last song.



That's all folks.
