I dont know man. That shit looks clean the way it comes thru poppin with the details and the colors on their faces but it just seems to overshadow the background and looks so last second. I liked the first cover because nothing stood out more then anything else. It all blended well is what Im trying to say. I dont think putting "bodies" on either of them would look all that great either, I just think that the background needs to compliment the focal point of the cover color wise. Maybe reduce the size of their heads and have some type of "fade" of their faces distancing off towards the background to lighten things up. That way you keep the integrity of the original picture yet you are able to account for the color changes and imagery.
Im by no means a pro at this shit, it was just an idea. Props to the og creator of this because its clean regardless. Use it or lose it, no love is lost. Looking forward to this album anyways, so for a die hard such as myself, cover art is the last thing Im trippin on.
