Queen - News of the World - 1977
The inner cover (gatefold) has the robot extending its hand to snatch up the petrified fleeing audience in the shattered auditorium where the corpses were removed.
Freas said he was a classical music fan and did not know Queen, and only listened to the band after doing the cover because he thought he might just hate them, and it would ruin his ideas.
The giant robot from the album cover, also known as 'Frank', was used as a special effect during the songs We Will Rock You and Killer Queen for the 2017–18 Queen + Adam Lambert Tour, which was in celebration of the album's 40th anniversary.
