Your favorite album cover.

Self-explanatory.

Just one though.

ONE; Got it? Okay.

And yeah, if it is inappropriate, don't post it here.

Also, I can't imagine it being a problem since it is one per person, but try to avoid posting an image with a large filesize.

Classic. Simultaneously simple and astounding.

Perfectly portrays the overall theme of the album.

Close seconds: "A Matter of Life and Death" - Iron Maiden, "Metropolis Pt.2" - Dream Theater

First one I though of when I saw the topic title. My personal favorite.

Indeed. Love that album and its cover.

Yeah! Warrior on Unicorn vs Dragon!

I think I saw that painted on a van somewhere like 30 years ago.

An iron maiden album cover, can't post pics. Im on mobile :(

@thehig1: GS needs to fix that can't quote or post pics.

Idk The Chronic 2001

Or Nemesisters by Babes in Toyland

@playmynutz: I'm on my PC now so heres mine

And here are yours

Death Grips NO LOVE DEEP WEB deserves a strong mention, but given the cover, I can't post it

This is my favourite as of recently. Lot of stuff going on in this cover

This would have to easily one of my favourites. It pretty much sums up that whole fantastical raw fantasy metal sort of thing.

The album was pretty good too.

I do not like the operatic vocalist in that band, but "Merciless Onslaught" is just... total ownage.

That second one reminds me of The Sword, sort of.

The Promise is still my favorite cover from him, I think.

I dislike the usual topics of fantasy in power metal, but anything with a dragon is impervious to bashing. Also that scenic background is wonderful.

The physical release of Metallica's Death Magnetic album, it's a very simple yet very creative way to make a 3D-cover

Kevlar101?

Maybe just because the album is good. But I like that those two characters appear in a series of music videos too. Not enough music videos have a theme.

For sure is this one.

I can't remember the last time I looked at an album cover....

Might get in trouble for this? But:

ROFLMAO !

I have plenty of other favourites, and many that would be highly inappropriate to post here (Belphegor, Deicide, Vader, etc), but Byzantine really got a great artist for this one.

In general though, most of my favourite albums are done by Seth Siro Anton. He has a wondrously grotesque art style.

i'm a little disheartened most of OT listens to dadrock / metal :(

I think many of us are quite a bit older than you must presume.

What should we be listening to then?

@EPICCOMMANDER: the sword, babes of toyland, rhapsody, and many others have covers like that Art style when Kenny in South Park trips out on cat piss

@GamingTitan: super cool

@destinhpark: listened to them on pandora the other day

@thehig1: thanks dude that iron maiden cover is awesome

@xdude85: people can listen to whatever they want

but some people place a high value on bands like pink floyd and dadrock bands

its like saying your favorite ice cream flavor is vanilla

@br0kenrabbit: i suppose you're right

Fantastic album - great cover.

@GamingTitan: I like how that second one has a sticker that says, “includes free 7 inch” I'm guessing that picture is from several decades ago heh
