This album is a fan tribute to my favorite band, CHTHINOC, a heavy metal band from Taiwan. Their unique style blends traditional oriental instruments with heavy metal, and their songs are often inspired by real Taiwanese history and local legends.

The design concept draws from the wood panel paintings of door gods in Taiwanese temples. This art form, rooted in ancient Chinese history, involves painting heroic generals or Taoist protectors on doors to safeguard homes or temples. Inspired by this tradition, I painted the band's leader (a woman) and lead singer (a man) on a door, incorporating fantasy animals like dragons and unicorns to symbolize their musical themes.
