Summary

Media data and Non-free use rationale

Date of publication	25 May 2018
Use in article (WP:NFCC#7)	It's Hard to Have Hope
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8)	Main infobox. The image is used for identification in the context of critical commentary of the work for which it serves as cover art. It makes a significant contribution to the user's understanding of the article, which could not practically be conveyed by words alone. The image is placed in the infobox at the top of the article discussing the work, to show the primary visual image associated with the work, and to help the user quickly identify the work and know they have found what they are looking for. Use for this purpose does not compete with the purposes of the original artwork, namely the artist's providing graphic design services to music concerns and in turn marketing music to the public.
Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1)	As musical cover art, the image is not replaceable by free content; any other image that shows the packaging of the music would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3)	Can only be used to represent this release.
Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2)	The copy is of sufficient resolution for commentary and identification but lower resolution than the original cover. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, unsuitable as artwork on pirate versions or other uses that would compete with the commercial purpose of the original artwork.
Other information	Use of the cover art in the article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy and fair use under United States copyright law as described above. ℗ 2018 Nuclear Blast. The album was originally released through Holy Roar Records, which went defunct on 30 March 2021. The album rights were transferred over to Nuclear Blast in June 2022, when Svalbard signed to the label.
