Funny, I didn't even realize this was the second gas mask themed album I'd added to the list.  Wonder what the underlying meaning is ...  As a teenager I remember meeting an older uncle who had been a Doughboy during World War I.  He'd been gassed during the fighting at Belleau Woods and as an old man was still suffering the impact ...   Regardless, this was one butt ugly cover.
