Renowned artist H.R. Giger passes away, aged 74

Posted by EW on 13/05/14

The passing of the renowned artist H.R. Giger is newsworthy in itself but very appropriate to Rockfreaks.net due to his incalculable cooperation with Celtic Frost, and more recently Triptykon, and their associated effect on the artistic integrity of album artwork on the world of extreme metal. The cover of Carcass' classic "Heartwork" was another among a catalogue of works as unique as many of the bands with whom he worked.


Giger passed away yesterday aged 74 at his home in Switzerland falling a fall down his stairs. Further information can be found here.


RIP.
