The record label Sevan Mater has launched an innovative product for the music recordings business: fully lenticular, single-piece 3D album covers.
This striking design offers a visual experience, bringing album artwork to life in a way never before seen. Unlike traditional covers that use an adhesive 3D layer, Sevan Mater’s creation is seamlessly integrated into a single piece, elevating the aesthetic appeal of music releases to a new dimension.
Despite its high-end appearance and cutting-edge technology, Sevan Mater states it is committed to making these stunning 3D album covers accessible to a wide range of artists and labels. Manufactured in Italy, the product remains affordable, making it a viable option for independent musicians and major players alike.
This product has already garnered significant interest from several record labels and bands. The first album to feature this technology is a reissue from the iconic metal band Iced Earth (available for pre-order here). This special edition showcases the full potential of the technology, with a striking front and back 3D lenticular effect, marking a historic moment as the first record product of its kind crafted by Sevan Mater/7 Mater in a single, cohesive piece.
This Iced Earth reissue is expected to be a highly sought-after item among collectors. The album itself marked a significant return for the band at the time, featuring new vocalist Stu Block (formerly of Into Eternity), who has been praised for bringing Iced Earth back to their glory days, delivering what many consider their best release since Horror Show.
The album is rich with epic guitar passages, minimalist thrash riffs, and the familiar structures that Iced Earth fans have come to love. This special reissue will be available in a limited edition of 500 copies, split between marbled red and transparent red vinyl, each including an insert and sealed with a sticker.
Sevan Mater is an innovative company dedicated to pushing the boundaries of physical music releases. With a focus on creativity, quality and affordability, the label strives to provide unique and impactful solutions for the music industry. Their latest product, the single-piece lenticular 3D album cover, exemplifies their commitment to excellence and innovation. The label’s releases include special album editions from world-famous artists including Iced Earth, Rotting Christ, Paradise Lost and Lacuna Coil. For more information click here.
