ha... I wouldn't know. "Don't stop believing" sends feelings of disappointment through my veins whenever I hear it now, thank you "Sopranos".

I think it's strange that you feel cover art is tightly constrained by the genre. What you called "indie pop" art (the Unicorns album) could definitely be called surreal, which you seem to feel is reserved for progressive rock. The Pink Moon cover art seems very reasonable for the soft, evocative music Nick Drake plays.
Rules never make sense for art. Cover art should reflect the musicians' visual image of their music, not be based on some sort of "genre template."

yes and no... I hear what you're saying and it makes sense but if the musicians vision of their own music is way off from how the general public perceives it, that can't be a good thing and lends itself to a ton of mockery. However, if the music is amazing... I'm sure it can be forgiven
