so allegedly quorthon hired some famous swedish bodybuilder to wear the goathead and pose with the large bone in his hand and they shot it at the swedish royal opera house during the intermission of a play (they only had like 5 min to do it)

and supposedly there were like 4 topless sluts on their knees in the foreground that got cropped out

"After seeing Francisco de Goya’s 1797 painting Witches’ Sabbath in a book, Quorthon searched for ways to recreate that image in some capacity for his new album. His inquiries led him to the Swedish Opera House in Stockholm, where the Georges Bizet opera Carmen was being staged, and he found out the rocky, mountainous set used during Act II would be a perfect setting for a cover photo. Quorthon’s idea was to have several half-naked girls in wigs kneeling on the rocky set towards a man posing as Goya’s “He-Goat”, and he had roped in four young women and a body builder named Leif Ehrnborg to model. In a rather amazing act of benevolence from the opera company, during the performance at the end of the second act when the curtain was pulled, Quorthon’s little entourage was allowed to run onto the set, pose, and quickly get the photograph they wanted. Everyone did as planned, Ehrnborg goofily running onto the set clad in a loincloth and a big papier-mâché goat mask, brandishing an ox bone in one hand and a cat pelt in the other. Unfortunately, shooting on the stage so close to the set, photographer Gunnar Silins was unable to properly fit the women models into the shot, and in order to make the He-Goat visible on a 12”x12” album cover, the photo had to be blown up considerably, and the end result is the memorable cover image everyone knows so well."
