I found this artwork so messy that I had some difficulty even understanding what I was looking at. It appears to be a skeleton riding a motorcycle through the sky with an electric guitar on his bike, which seems like it would make for the ultimate metal cover if this was an album instead of a book (and making me think metal is pretty much always going to hurt my personal score). But despite having what I consider very amateurish artwork, the cover isn't exactly ugly either, so the Aesthetic factor isn't as low as it could be.

Perhaps I'm stretching to find some story here, but the inclusion of the guitar in what seems to be a music themed book (given the title) at least suggests something more interesting than a wannabe Ghost Rider. Perhaps it's some blend of fantasy and rock culture. It's not much of a story, but it's a hint of a story. Still, it just looks sloppy.
