    Glass Hammer - Cor Cordium

    Does the title come from the Swinburne poem, and does the artwork have any relation to the lyrics or themes? Not that any of it has to, just wondering. FWIW, I like the cover better than Roger Dean's rock.

    Not really, but it was also the inscription on the grave of the poet Percy Bysshe Shelley - and that's where the title mostly comes from. The cover art said more about the music and the band / nothing really at all about the concept. Tom Kuhn did great work for us. Glad you like it!

    I wondered what the title meant. Aside from "Cor" meaning "Horn", of course. But then when I googled the translation, found that Cor Cordium means "Heart of Hearts". (Cor being latin for "Heart")
