>>65109020

this is a good ass thread
>>65109126
Thought that was a drawing someone made of the cover itself
obligatory
>>65109177
this is just a repeat of every single other cover source threads. same images every time
This is the hotel where the Jenny Death and Fashion Week covers were photographed.
from The Man Who Fell to Earth, also the source of the cover of Station to Station.
>>65109126
What book is this?
>>65109437
and from the photoshoot for Diamond Dogs
That t-shirt that people who are into music always wear
I was kinda let down by seeing that the original pic featured another sentence in the soldier's helmet.
obligatory
The room is a ward in an abandoned mental hospital.
How perfectly fitting.
This is for my album. It was actually going to be the cover for a while, with the title being "Pam" but I thought it was too busy. Any other bandcamp bros in here?
>>65109975
Whats up man.
This cover is actually a blurry pic of my pedalboard. Wish I still had the original pic.
>>65110039
If you're actually grow house, I love your stuff

I wanna learn about naked lady rituals
>>65110498
not the same anon, but a quick google search yields this: https://books.google.com/books?id=YhF1tE1ZE_UC&pg=PT206&lpg=PT206&dq=%22when+privacy+permits,+outdoor+rituals+are+better%22&source=bl&ots=gj2YT3Ir6a&sig=iiukwi3Zr9k149jCs-1QYc9xByg&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiTjcuKhvHMAhUQUVIKHUelCz8Q6AEISDAI#v=onepage&q=%22when%20privacy%20permits%2C%20outdoor%20rituals%20are%20better%22&f=false

The painting is A Basket of Roses by Henri Fantin-Latour
>>65110488
>>65110670 haha rekt.
Also, charge your phone, Rob.
>>65109399
There's probably 1000 houses that look identical to that.
>>65109975
I just drank one of those "refreshe" seltzers with my lunch like an hour ago
Weird
>>65109747
woah weird to see this band here
The Sound - Jeopardy
>>65111523
it's the one the band lived in tho
>>65109278
wow that's like, almost the exact same, really lazy
>>65111788
dope
>>65111788
looks cooler with colour
>>65112688
They didn't live in it, they just liked the photo
>>65109671
What's going on?
Looks way better without text imo
>>65113603
artsy performance art most likely
>>65113657
most album covers are better without text
>>65109009
is the picture of the murderers?
>>65113867
there are exceptions though
>>65113050
From the CD booklet:
"The picture of the elephant in the forest was taken from the cover of what appears to be an antique Dutch cookbook titled "Calve-Delft's Winterboekje." On the inside of the cover it seems to credit "Leo Visser" as the artist. I think I found it on the floor of the bookstore I worked at as a teenager, just the cover torn off, and kept it around. Of course it is used without permission. Who do you ask? Have mercy."
>>65113895
yea
>>65109912
woah
>>65108963
Flatlander?
>>65109191
>>65109478
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hsRnaaR-r3k
Props to whoever guesses this one
>>65109399
How fucking weird that would be to see someone standing outside your house holding a record cover while taking a picture
>>65109601
"Woah dude, check that rad chandelier. Good thing I have my Polaroid"
>>65114570
fucking shat myself.
it's just so believable from this shitty band
>>65110631
>>65110682
what leads people to practice witchcraft? like why aren't they afraid of getting fucked by a demon?
>>65108954
we get it, you vape
>>65114683
That's what most of them are hoping to have happen, actually.
>>65114683
>"""witchcraft"""
>irl LARP-ing
>>65112488
nice, strangeways. what's this from?
>>65114667
Nice
>>65114772
>TFW i always thought it was just a weird shot of morrissey
>>65114416
god I love that album, cool vid
>>65110583
madlib looks great
>>65114667
just makes me wonder how people find this shit to begin with
>>65111751
its on here quite a bit
>>65109601
i hate this
>>65114483
this is an obscure one
>>65115026
How is Bohren Obscure
>>65109912
The album for this
>>65109564
here's closer
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RwMd6TQFjm0
>>65114808
yeah thought that too
>>65115100
Red House Painters - Down Colorful Hill
>>65113050
It's from a cookbook, not like he repurposed an existing work of art, there was no addition necessary.
>>65108954
>>65113897
The original is better
>>65115334
what was the point of doing that at a parliament building? just because the entrance looks cool?
>>65114915
>>>65114667
>just makes me wonder how people find this shit to begin with
Seriously, this is one of my favourite albums and I've been there multiple times but never made the connection.
>>65115398
Probably, yeah.
>>65115389
nah
the original looks bland without something in that corner, since the shape of the banana leaves half of the album cover just white, as if there's something missing
plus the font is pretty cool imho
This bridge is in a park in my town
It's also on the cover of Opeth's Morningrise album
>>65115483
Wow that's cool
>>65113895
>>65114114
no it's not, it's Maureen Hindley + husband, they were witnesses
>>65115457
But no name matches the artistic motive of the band. The original is perfectly minimalistic.
>>65109671
>>65113603
>>65113678
It's from a polish horror films called Matka Joanna od aniolów (Mother Joan of the Angels), my second favorite possession film after The Exorcist.
>>65115583
yes, yes, but it LOOKS better with the title
>>65115625
this girl's face is disgusting, richard is 10 times better
>>65115625
looks better with richard's face 2bh
i'm thinking of doing some travelling, and this thread is making me want to try a sort of 'album cover hunt' where I try and find as many landmarks/ places used on album covers as possible
is this kinda cool or just super lame
anyone know the source of the image in the center
>>65115727
probably a Mao Tse-tung propaganda manifesto
>>65115803
that much is obvious
>>65115680
Makes it too cluttered in my opinion. Less is more
>>65115406
Where is that though?
>>65115861
well, alright.
you're just as entitled to an opinion as i am
>>65109399
>>65114445

>>65114772
it's the actors james dean and richard davalos having a break during the shooting of the classic movie east of eden
>>65114667
What am I looking at...? I don't see a connection.
>>65109172
sick
>>65114425
dark tranquillity,
>>65115955
whoever lives there must be used to a bunch of emos hanging on their lawn
>>65116027
what do you mean? its the spot the album cover was taken
>>65116303
>get the hose, janet
>>65116252
Correct
Haven
>>65109975
another bandcamp person here. a friend who was crashing in my living room put up a bunch of colored lights and i took a picture of my ceiling.
>>65116303
Whoever lives there is probably an emo fuccboi himself. IIRC, that's in a college town.
>>65113657
why are her eyes dilated?
>>65115726
Sounds fun desu
>>65109625
honestly I think that's a better sentence than "meat is murder"
>>65116721
great even more emos
>>65109625
>>65109033
>>65109201
>>65109278
I really hope I can buy this cookbook one day
>>65115100
SO ITS NOT

>>65111788
>>65110677
>>65109057
Never saw these before
Neat
>>65113657
those coke eyes
From the artwork of Royal Robertson, a self-proclaimed prophet of Louisiana.
A puppy play couple in a gay pride parade in Sacramento, California in 2007.
Guess it
I figure lots of people might know this but the cover to melvins' Lysol is a statue currently on the front lawn of Boston's MFA. Pass by it every day on the way to school.
"Appeal to the great spirit" is the name, I think.
>>65120605
You retard they used an existing illustration from before 2007
Voila
Agalloch: the Mantle, same statue; different photo.
hey bro, i run the blog you're posting these from i had no idea people liked it so this is cool!
>>65120843
This picture is so good.
>>65121057

>>65121081

I'd like to go one day
>>65120822
>>65121235
It's in Coney Island, but it's been shut down for 20 plus years.
I can't remember the name of it
>>65116721
Yeah, it's in Urbana, IL. iirc its not that close to campus though.
>>65115077
CAL?
>>65120931
is this ben frost?
>>65120796
this is an incredibly famous painting. what dipshit band would use it as an album cover?
>>65121363
It's Twoism.
>>65120931
Neat
>>65120931
what's this from?
i know it's twoism, but what did they take it from?
>>65110039
I liked Grow House as well. Any updates on a follow up?
The art for Det Som Engang Var is actually the cover of a Dungeons & Dragons adventure module.
https://housefiresyndrome.bandcamp.com/releases
>>65121298
I'm from there and yes, it's actually pretty close. It's in a student ghetto.
>>65116892
>her
>>65109399
I've been there too since it's pretty close to me. Really close to UIUC. Went to a party nearby there one, which was really trippy. It was in the basement of some frat house and there was a stage set up where people in astronaut suits came out and started playing electronica or something. Those were great times.
Can't find it in anything but shit quality.
This is actually the cover to two albums, but chances are that you know only one of them. (Or neither.)
>>65122484
a movie titled something like "the outpost at point zeta"
not sure if thats the exact title but it's probably close enough to google and find it
>>65109248
>"When my husband and I want to take a trip together" says the psychedelic mother of four, "I just put a little acid in the kids' orange juice in the morning and let them spend the day freaking out in the woods"
Lol wtf.
>>65113897
I've actually never seen a copy of that album that has the text on it, but whenever I see it posted online, it usually has the text.
Deathconsciousness
>>65123379
If I ever made a pysch rock record I'm going to fit that in somewhere
>>65123546
its pretty hard to find a copy on vinyl with the text but most CD pressings from the 90s have the text
>>65109228
>>65109136
>>65109081
>>65109057
>>65109747
these are cool, haven't seen them before
>>65117387
yeah it honestly is way cooler
>>65111751
always posted in shoegaze threads, in essentials charts
>>65109773
what's this again?
>>65110137
honestly a great pic in and of itself
>>65113657
i still fucking hate this pic and idk why
>>65122883
still don't get how people find this stuff
>>65123924
>still don't get how people find this stuff
its the parking lot of the air port just south of seattle. i found out when i went there. simple as that
>>65109399
better pic
>>65123965
i guess nobody takes pics of album covers near me
>>65123987
well i didnt take that pic but yeah. i dunno, just run across or recognized a bunch of covers when ive come across them irl. also pretty sure ive been almost everywhere in that super thrift shop music video
>>65121406
Guns n' Roses used a small part of it for one of there's
>>65115167

>>65109625
This was from a 1970s documentary called bay of pigs
>>65109625

Wow pretty good

>>65124481
Imagine unknowingly moving into a house featured on an album cover from 17 years back and seeing dozens of random pedestrians just taking photos of your house.
>>65123291
what albums?
>>65109172
Oh shit it's a chick?
>>65122621
The Burzum cover art is from the same thing.
>>65109136
deltron 3030 right?
>>65120482
great
>this wasn't posted yet
>>65127742
This is one of my favorite albums, but seeing as that painting is very well known, it's not really the most interesting pick for this thread.
>>65127768
It's interesting because it was used for two albums, by The Pogues and Ahab
>>65127795
That's true i guess.
I was talking about rum, sodomy... for what it's worth, never listened to ahab.
>>65125043
the real estate agent would probably tell you
>>65124681
nope, it looks better with.
>>65120740
come on, the face that guy's making is identical to the girls on TMS
>>65123594
*clap clap* amazing find, Anon, I don't know how you keep doing it
