Swedish metallers Ghost (Ghost B.C. in the US) face a delay in releasing their new studio album after four respective manufacturers refused to print a certain image included in the album’s artwork.
“The manufacturers all took issue with the sacrilegious imagery, forcing Ghost B.C. to quickly come up with an alternate plan,” SPIN.com reports.
“The NSFW illustration, inspired by the work of Gustave Dore, showcases what looks like a forest nymph orgy, but it's the religious iconography at the top that convinced manufacturers to turn off the printing press. Even though the Infestissumam booklets had all been printed, the band struggled to find anyone in the States to print the CD for them,” the site additionally notes.
The manufacturing issue only relates to the deluxe issue of the album.
