Lifeblood Artwork?

Probably been requested loads of times before so apologies for that, but...
I am looking for hi-res images from the Lifeblood album, any type including posters (I remember there was a brilliant poster with reviews on posted here not so long ago!)
I have looked on the John Ross and Farrow design websites, but I know there are more images like the ones on the vinyl edition.

Any help would be much appreciated

We should print that out and give it to them at every opportunity.

Were those proper reviews or made up ones? I lose track!

I've got six 1024x768 wallpaper images from that time, can't remember where I got them from. They are numbered 1 to 7, but I seem to be missing number 2. Three of them are the blood splashing shots, and the other three are of the Empty Souls covers. PM me if you're interested in these.

They were from the official site weren't they? I remember them being beautiful.

Image below them - don't think I've ever seen that one before today, almost looks like a fan made attempt, but I expect still an official one? I haven't looked in the Lifeblood booklet for ages though in case it's in there.

Pretty sure there was a display of the artist's work at the Tate a couple of years ago.

What great artwork it was. I wonder if there were any additional (that we've never seen) images ready for a third single.

Thanks Deets - a few on that site that I'd not seen before.

I remember when some magazine to do with design had an image from Lifeblood on the cover. No idea what the magazine was called!
