I'm not a huge fan of either covers, but I like the Can one a bit better because something about the bright orange really stands out. I don't like the typeset on the Faust one and just the title with the hand seems plain and oddly positioned.

Can - 6
Faust -5

It's really back and forth! What puts Faust over the top for me is that the sleeve is actually on clear plastic and it looks awesome with the clear vinyl.

I've always loved the cover for Tago Mago, it sums up the contents of the album very nicely. Not too keen on the Faust cover.

Can - 7
Faust - 6

I like both to an extent, but the minimalism and composition of the Faust cover gives it a slight edge for me.

although i would much rather listen to the Faust album.....there is just something striking about the simplified madness depicted on the Can album

I always liked Tago Mago's cover, even if I never really cared for the album itself.

Faust 7

What that other dude said about the Faust one looking like a bad MS Paint job. The pic would look cool on its own, but the font right next to it just looks ****ty.
