The album cover will never be used for a CD, it was in poor taste even before the 911 attack.

I don't agree. Before the attack, this would have been a totally acceptable cover. We see images of stuff getting blown up all the time! Do you always consider it poor taste? Or is it just because this is something that really got blown up? I agree the album cover shouldn't be printed now, in the aftermath, but at the time I think it was just fine.

The blast on the cover looks very fiery, in part I believe from the influence of Hollywood. Most people have never seen a real explosion, but have seen hundreds on screen.

Or maybe thats just how computer generated fire tends to look?
