Walpurgis, ‘The Shiver’. Giger's first-ever album cover was created in 1969 for Walpurgis, a Swiss psychedelic rock band. Steve Stevens, ‘Atomic Playboys’. Hair-metal guitarist and erstwhile Billy Idol and Vince Neil sideman Steve Stevens commissioned Giger to do the artwork for his 1989 studio debut Atomic Playboys. It was the last time that Giger ever created artwork specifically for use as an album cover. From this point on, any album covers featuring his artwork were the result of licensing agreements.

WALPURGIS is a strange but IMHO woefully overlooked album from the early nascent cradle of when the progressive rock world was taking its first steps out of the melting pot of 60s psychedelia. Formed in 1967 as Der Seiger in the Swiss city of St. Gallen by guitarist and singer Dany R'hle, this band actually has ties with another Swiss band with a Giger cover, namely Island through the connection of yet another contemporary band called Deaf. WALPURGIS is an album that doesn't work on so many levels but yet i'm endeared to it for some reason, feeling like i shouldn't like it as much as i do but somehow find like an invisible planet on the other side of the sun, it exerts some sort of undetectable gravitational pull and while it utterly defies logical explanation

The final two songs of the album "No Time" and "The Peddle" close off the album with a more noticeable blues sound leading the psychedelic overtones. With the help of . Geiger's first album cover submission (fun fact), the album definitely has its very own unique, foreboding and worthwhile identity which makes it really disappointing to note that not enough know of its existence. Do yourself a favor if you are fond of psychedelic, prog, the blues, or eerie imagery to check this one out.
