Favourite Album Artwork

[Spiteface]

There are a couple of Godspeed You! Black Emperor sleeves that fit their music perfectly

This one, "F♯A♯∞":



Very bleak, perfectly captures the post-apocalyptic vibe of what they do.

And "Yanqui UXO":

That looks disturbingly like Chris who used to work for me (was one of his favourite albums too)

Or Guthrie Govan...

Pretty much anything by Rodney Mathews, but this Magnum album is my fave.

I like Savatage, I just don't have much of their material.

I love Aereogramme's last album so much I had part of the artwork tattooed on my arm. getting the rest done over easter i hope. All those metal album covers make me cringe though. So tacky.

I'd have the tattoo of Adam.B(?)'s arm for an album cover. :)

it's hard to beat those Kansas album covers.

I hate Meatloaf but the album cover is a classic.

Nice one. I also like the Painkiller album cover (and album tracks) which is very balls to the wall just like the songs:)



Also, the Wishbone Ash album that someone posted a few pages back was just stunning, great atmosphere in that picture, very artistic, but havent heard the band, but i am going to NOW!

Jesus, with the odd exception I think every single cover in this thread is appaling :lol: Especially the metal ones (bar the DEP one, which I do really like) I didn't know we were a forum of 11 year old boys.

A few recent ones I really like:

haha I was thinking exactly the same thing but didnt want to say anything, not a fan of the cheesy 80s metal artwork at all.
