Shameless Shamen Shenanigans


Click above for a larger and more expanded version...

I've been meaning to post these "fan-made" alternative covers I made for songs by The Shamen, for a few months now. I was going to post them one by one, but that might be a bit spammy. The above image is a composite made from a few sources. The made part is taken from a screen capture I made while playing the FPS game, "Prey". The song, "Space-Time" was written about Will Sinnott, a member of the band that drowned while filming "Move Any Mountain", and his image appears in the blue portal [inter-dimensional and all that shit]. To me, Prey, was a perfect vehical for Shamen related subject matter. The game merges Native American culture with a futuristic/sci-fi setting. Wonderful stuff, and definitely shamanic business every time...



We all know the song "Ebeneezer Goode" but some struggle with understanding why it was so controversial (this is actually true, I know of people). I thought I might lend a helping hand with this artwork, although it's still a little cryptic.



Muhammad had the original... only joking. I just wanted to get some flack from Muslims. Muhammad is accredited with asking a mountain to move and saying it will only move with faith, but that may just be a story told by outsiders as it's not found in mainstream Islamic texts, but it is pop culture though so I'm linking it here! And here's an earlier version which graphically demonstrated the link. And you know the old joke about it don't you: Faith can move mountains, she's a big girl! Oh the funniez...


An alternative version for Space-Time...
