ITT: god-tier album covers
That one really isn't.
/thread
>>61269561
neither is this one
>>61269578
that one isnt either
>>61269526
>>61269610
Every time I see that cover I want to throw up
>>61269526
Is that seriously his beautiful dark twisted fantasy? Having sex with an armless angel with a cow's tail while he's drinking some sort of liquor while his face collapses in on itself? I don't get it.
>>61269634
wow its a picture
an OLD picture
haha
>>61269610
ye boi
mediocre album, great artwork
so good
>>61270948
I'm fucking dying
I fapped.
I like MBDTF but the album Im double sided on
It looks good from a distance, very arty.
But I hate how the head is cropped and how a leg is missing from the woman that makes no sense
Its a badly done Condo painting
Looks exactly like it sounds
>>61269526
Am I the only one who prefers the censored version?
Not sure why, but this is my favorite. Makes me feel so bittersweet
>>61271195
and best album... pike 13
>>61271093
whyzat???
>>61269610
>>61271087
>>61271182
Only good ones ITT
>>61271345
Never listened to this album but have a poster of this on my wall.
>>61270390
>>61269526
Basically is a cuckload paint.
You, literally, should kill yourself if you admire this shit.
>>61271192
>>61271147
>>61269526
>not posting the best version
Posting a few of my favs
>>61269789
underated post
It's a tie between this (Furious Angels) and...
Tbh
>>61271869
This too
And this (Giles Corey - Giles Corey)
The thread is god-tier album covers, not album art of something you liked.
Of course this. I mean, come on.
>>61271948
Literally every Tim Hecker album cover is great
This has always been my favorite
>>61271073
this
>>61271914
i prefer Kid A and OK Computer's art, but this is still pretty good
>>61271976
>Haunt Me, Haunt Me Do It Again
>Radio Amor
>An Imaginary Country
>Mirages
yup
>>61271073
i remember pitchfork put this as one of the worst covers of 2010.... fuck them
>>61271168
Don't forget this, bitch.
ITAOTS
I'm not even a metalhead but take a look at this bad boy
I really like the way this one looks
>>61271299
i seriously love this one
>>61271801
honestly i like all of these, they're very evocative and actually made me want to listen to the album. sadly i didn't really enjoy it very much (not the point here though)...
>>61271914
>>61272069
Kid A is GOAT album art
Essential ayy lmao album art
One of my favourites
prolly gonna get shit on for this but this is my favorite album cover of all time, and i would not enjoy this album nearly as much without it. it really sets this kind of innocent dreamy mood.
used 2 live by a creek when i was little and this reminds me of it for some reason. theres some other reasons i really like it too.
>>61269578
That cover makes me think of this
>>61273235
Love this one
>>61273254
this is one of the comfiest covers ever man, it's good af
>>61271182
i liked this album desu
>>61273075
This one is awesome and one of the few good album covers that isn't simple.
a lot of covers for the various metal genres are really pretty, even the disgusting ones are really pretty. unfortunately i just am not a fan of metal.
>>61271453
Listen to it
>>61271801
Definitely the best MBDTF cover
But they all sort of come together and are a great portrayal of the theme of the album
>>61273970
Meh, always thought it belongs on a yu gi oh card
>>61273493
I support this
>>61273559
Any of John Dyer Baizley's album covers are god-tier.
>>61274027
This, fits the music perfectly.
>>61271967
I must admit; for such an awful album, that is a good album cover.
i cant tell if you guys are being ironic or not
i mean im sure at least half of you are but still
>>61273310
>>61271958
>>61274063
I like those.
>>61274062
album art is about more than just how it looks, it's also about meaning. a lot of these probably have some deeper meaning to them that aren't immediately obvious without listening to the music
>>61274165
only good one in the thread
>>61271028
It looks like a Magic: the Gathering card.
>>61274165
epic
>>61274165
we're done here
>>61269561
The cover itself isn't great, but the packaging idea is fantastic. Full newspaper.
>>61274205
Same aesthetics as Swans.
love belle and sebastian's album covers
>>61269526
Wait... he has a beer.
he's not holding a middle finger
>>61274353
I do too but I can look at off color pictures of cute brits for hours
>>61273463
>>61273559
Funny coincidence, I've just been listening to both of those while browsing
>>61274147
Just everything about that album is good imo
>>61273463
was about to post this one.
baizley's artwork is goat.
>>61273463
>>61273559
Baroness' artwork is honestly really ugly to me. Like, what the hell is this shit even meant to be?
>>61274435
Picked up this vinyl today all the white dots are 3d
Agree
>>61271903
Not posting the vastly superior Anthony Fantano version.
>>61273502
What album is that?
>>61271910
maybe
>>61269593
g-gay
>>61273254
>>61273279

Ceres & Calypso in the Deep Time by Candy Claws
>>61276099
https://candyclaws.bandcamp.com/album/ceres-calypso-in-the-deep-time
Album might be crap but the the artwork is god-tier
>>61271903

Great album of course, but yeah.

>>61273502

Made by Phil Hartman. Just something incredibly striking about it, I really wish I had the Vinyl just for it.

>>61274435
Devotion is their best cover art imo
>>61273254
Im in love with this album cover
>>61279686
Feels is objectively the better album cover.
horrendous music though
comfy
>>61271959
it accurately depicts the music
>>61271087
Pretty much all of Swans covers are great desu
>>61279778
Hey, sh-shut up I like DNA
>>61279892
What is it about it that appeals to you? I'm not asking to be a smart-ass, I'm just genuinely interested.
>>61274455
Nigga are you serious
>>61279471
Damn I really like that. What album?
Not a good album but the art is great.

I dunno really, I just enjoy the heavy and aggressive style, and how chaotic it all is.

That's all folks. Everything else sucks.
REMEMBER: Good album art doesn't = good album ;^)
My favorite >>61271958
>>61271898
Yes! Did you know that all their album covers and single artwork are taken from movie posters?
Opus Eponymous = Salem's Lot
infestissumam = Amadeus
Meliora = Metropolis
Cirice = Silence of the Lambs
Majesty = King Kong
Zenith = Rosemary's Baby
etc.
Underrated
>>61271903
tyler is a faggot
> This many replies and nobodt has posted this
>>61281158
peter saville is a god-tier cover designer
>>61281042
Is this an album cover for real? the book seems quite interesting
>>61269526
>>61281484
wut an ironic maymay post, you have impressed us all with your internet tomfoolery.
FLOCKA
>>61281484
Is it too late for christmas album covers?
>>61280983
is that even an album cover? it's not even a standard size, it just looks like some badly cropped random photo.
>>61281570
Yeah, its a Country Teasers album, their best imo.
>>61269526
>>61271903
i loves this cover desu
>>61280717
I like Toro Y Moi and all but that album cover is fucking stupid.
>>61273310
Came here to post this
>>61281834
I fucking hate his album covers
>>61281757
Nigga are you serious
>>61281904
Only albums I got solely for the cover art: pic related, and >>61271073
>>61271129
ew
>>61271192
yes, you are.
>>61271195
greate
>>61271801
there is no best version, they all suck
>>61271959
probably one of the most fitting album covers ever
>>61272081
possible favourite.
>>61273036
>>61273075
>>61273235
>>61273491

>>61273493
moonman moonman can't you see?
>>61273531
gorgeous, what album is that?
i love this one for some reason
however, this >>61273235 is my all time favorite cover
YO I JUST SAW THIS ON THE FRONT PAGE LOL
>>61273502
Artwork is beautiful, and I'm sure the music is good too, but that band name and album name are spork-tier cringe.
>>61273254
I feel weird
I lack sleep since a couple of days, so I feel kinda drowsy and slow
I think i' just spent 15 minutes fixing at this cover. Comfiest shit i've seen in ages
The color palette throws me back on a level in Boulder Dash II
>>61272028
I have had a lot of questions about this album cover for years.
>>61278565
You didn't do the cover any justice with such a shit resolution.
We can't even see it's a painting.
It just looks a shitty photoshoot
