Most Precious Blood says Thy Art Is Murder 'ripped off' album cover

9/8/2015 1:42:35 PM PT   comments [65]

When Thy Art Is Murder revealed the cover artwork of their then-forthcoming LP, Holy War, this past spring, there were a few people who mentioned its similarity to Most Precious Blood's 2003 effort, Our Lady of Annihilation. To refresh your memory, here are the two covers side-by-side:


Thy Art Is Murder and Most Precious Blood album covers


If they had any thoughts on the matter, Most Precious Blood has kept them private... until today, that is. Several hours ago we used Twitter to promote our news item about Thy Art Is Murder being barred from two Disney venues, and Most Precious Blood used the opportunity to call out the band. You can view the exchange below.

The trolling attempt from MPB is really tacky based on the fact that their cover is still way beyond better.
Theyre older and are fortunate enough to not have a gayy band name like Thy Art Is Murder. Im embarrassed just typing that.
Shit band .shit cover

Most precious blood is still around ?? Aren't they in their 40s? Sorry guys but that band was generic as fck and I wouldn't consider them as a good hardcore band. Especially when they started that horrible singing crap. Thy art is murder, keep killing it and break mpb's back. Thanks

No girl core queen band can top MPB. Being new or old doesn't make you more or less shitty. Thy Art is Murder is a garbage band with garbage music that steals ideas, plain and simple. Their songs are boring repetitive bullshit. fck this retard nucore tumblr teen wave shit. fck Thy Art is Murder

Rob Fusco is one of, if not the most douchey persons I've ever met in my life. I went from loving everything he did to realizing how much of liar and an ass hat he is in 2.5 seconds when I asked to take a picture with him. He snubbed me and made me feel like I was 2 inches tall. I will never support any more of his projects. fck that dude. I like how he uses God to make money though. Good try dck cheese.

How can you say MPB was generic and playing same shit as everyone else? That's totally false. Also, my old band toured with them 3 times. 2 of those times, MPB headlined the tour. Most shows were packed out. Kids piling on singing the songs, etc. not ignoring them. Also, keep lying, thy art is murder. Ive never heard of you until this post. Checked you out and straight garbage. Ooof! Also, Rob mpb was a nerd.

Cause a child is the same as a woman... The only resemblance is the bomb vest which looks like one is c4 and one dynamite. Oh no it's a similar idea that was changed and made different. I mean Dillinger Escape Plan had mor of a case with The Ghost Inside. I enjoy both bands but it sounds like MPB needs some attention since they were forgotten about by their old vocalist who went to Recon

Well, yeah, that's what they do. They rip bands off. Repeatedly. Why would it end at just their music? Considering they ripped off Whitechapel, Suicide Silence and Carnifex. They're just the Australian version of those bands with no identity. This is nothing new for them.

Both bands are trash but MPB is in the right in this one. That is their album art and it was clearly ripped off. Judging by the reply they know they stole it as well. The designer could have done the same concept to fit the title but they should have had the balls to call out Islam because it's clearly the subject matter of the title. As for the original image it is one of my favorite covers but the music was nowhere near the caliber to be deserving of artwork that good.

If you type in google 'Most controversial album art of all time'that MPB art is listed up there with some of the biggest name in rock history. To say that is not one of the MOST known album covers in hardcore is an understatement and the fews of us OG lamb goat viewers will remember it. TAIM are new jack deathcore kids from fcking Australia... of course they rip off everyone, name one original Australian act... because you wont be able to.
