in my opinion, i think the cover is fine, for the purpose of this album. it has a pretty plain mainstream look, nothing too over the top. i know that if i had never heard tech before, and i was walking inside best buy or some other store and saw this cover, i might actually give it a shot. but if i saw a cover like anghellic's, without knowing anything about tech, i would probably just look at it weird, and put it right back on the shelf and move on. once tech hits it big with this album, he can pretty much do whatever after that.
