Taking Back Sunday have released the cover art of their upcoming record "Louder Now" due out April 25. They have also written about the inspiration behind the cover. Album cover and text below:

It's our pleasure to reveal the cover of the album. Our good friend Brad Filip is doing the artwork for us again. The cover started from a photograph we found that we really liked called New York City, 1963 by a New York photographer named Joel Meyerowitz. We thought the irony of the speaker covering someone's persona, making something both more prominent yet more hidden at the same time was really interesting. So we called Mr. Meyerowitz and he was nice enough to let us share his photo so we could create our cover. Brad did the rest and the result is LOUDER NOW.
