maybe i'll catch fire by alkaline trio

paper canyon by codes in the clouds

blackwater park by opeth

wild & beautiful by silly wizard.

^ I'm bored, so I though I'd actually post images of those album covers...

The only one I can say I like is Maybe I'll Catch Fire. Beautiful warm colors.

As for the rest, they're rather ordinary. I really don't see what's to like about Paper Canyon. Personally, I would rate it as a bad album cover.

Listener - Wooden Heart

Really great album too.

^ That looks like a giant turd...

Always like this one.

Does this have anything to do with me posting about it earlier?

It reminded me, yes.

Thought that was too much of a coincidence, but the artwork does nothing for me.

I got the album recently, and like the cover enough to post it here...

Solitude Aeturnus - Alone

Why not? it's great.

That is a massive album cover.

"Weird", is all I have to say about it.

Same goes for James' list. Firstly, what's the chick putting in her ear in the last album cover?
The middle one's not bad though. Looks a bit psychedelic.

Quite like this one.

Looks a bit 'over the top' to me. Still pretty cool.

I don't hate all over the top albums. Just a general rule, I usually dislike them if there's too much going on. Quite like that one though.

My favorite Zep album cover is the second one, but honestly, none of them are very good IMO

fuc‎k yeah

Few more I like...

Destruction - The Antichrist

Asphyx - Last One on Earth

My favorite album cover is probably the Chickenfoot album.

When it's cold its totally black with their logo and name on.
When you warm it up, then pictures appears.


Really amazing idea to an album cover!

:rofl: That's terrible.

Kinky skull. Fire. Missles. Nuke. Pretty colours. How's that terrible???

How someone could like that is beyond me, but whatever floats your boat...

Most metal covers are. Iron Maiden covers are fucking horrible.

Have to disagree on this one. These are f*cking awesome

^ I have to disagree with you disagreeing, I think those are horrible.

Seconded. I'm actually pretty hard pressed to find ONE Metal cover I like.

I like primus's album covers

Yeah!

I quite like Physical Graffiti, actually

I really like Nick Drake's Pink Moon though

I find David Sylvian's usually consistent when it comes to immense album covers.

There's something about this one that I like.

It's interesting because, depending on how I look at it, I love and feel lukewarm about this cover.


Edit: The fact that it seems like there are a billion versions of this (colours) is also intriguing.

My all time favourite artwork :)
