Outer Limit Lotus is a Norwegian band made up of Henrik Øiestad Myrvold, Vebjørn Guttormsgaard Møllberg, and Øystein Wyller Odden. Their latest album, Dazzling Darkness, was released May 2023 on Sheep Chase Records.

The album artwork, designed by band member member Henrik Myrvold, prominently features Roslindale, used in all of its moody glory as it glows against the foggy, shadowy imagery behind it. The dreamlike imagery and deep red/black color palette reflect the pensive, hypnotic style of the album’s music.

This style extends to the covers for a handful of singles (where blue is introduced) as well as the music video for “Let the Night Ride you Home”.

Roslindale Text is used to set the liner notes on the album insert, and Clavichord makes an appearance on the sleeve on some of the related apparel.
