Title track from their last (not the new one) album. I was very enchanted by it at the time, not knowing what to expect at all. Actually, the cover made me curious, I still can't make out whether it is a flower, something gory, the skull of an alien or an artsy pussy,

I don't know.  Their bassist has a B.A. in fine art.  So whatever it is, most likely she is responsible for it.

The way you worded it, you've left all possible options open!  :o

I'm - as usual - appalled.  :-\

I tend to not assume things too much and leave possibilities open.  It's possible this is the same kind of situation as when Golden Earring had their 1982 album named "Cut."  But I really do doubt it.
