What is the greatest album cover?
 
What is the greatest album cover?

I would have to say either

The Who: Tommy
Cream: Wheels of Fire
Beck: Sea Change
The Allman Brothers: Eat a Peach
King Crimson: In the Court of the Crimson King

What do you think.

In Flames - Whoracle.

Metallica - Master Of Puppets

Hate to sound cliche, but Led Zeppelin IV does it for me (gotta get it on vinyl).

Godsmack's new album, Faceless, looks pretty good

Stoic 01-27-2004 04:34 AM

i really like Pink Floyd's Wish you were here cover, and that in flames cover looks amazing

DimebagDarrell 01-27-2004 06:55 AM

AC/DC Back In Black

If you like 5 year old girls then the best cover of an album is Led Zeppelin - Houses of the Holy.

Otherwise the best album cover is:
The Beatles - Sgt. Peppers and the Lonely Hearts Club Band
or
Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin

I dunno, I kinda like the style of the cover on The Decline by NOFX. Its kinda crappy, but looks cool and sends a good message IMHO.

karl07 01-27-2004 03:27 PM

Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts, no contest.

Dancin' Man 01-27-2004 04:50 PM

id say tool in general has some of the best covers. lateralus has no writing and is a tranperancy of the human body and aenema has 3 different covers that are like littlr holograms (flames, yogi rocking back and forth, an iris swirling around it's eye). other than that, id say the white album by the beatles. simpler than the black album by metallica (and doesnt have that stupid snake)

Even though it's off topic. Who's gonna be the mod now that Jarvis is gone???

Hitroshimite 01-27-2004 08:09 PM

I've always liked the cover of Powerslave.

Chimp_fleshwound 01-28-2004 12:01 PM

Alice In Chains - [I]Dirt[/I] or [I]Facelift[/I]

Stratoholic69 01-28-2004 10:26 PM

The original vinyl Are You Experienced is so weird and freaky. I also hate to sound obvious but Axis: Bold As Love is good too.

LoveBuzzed 01-30-2004 06:25 PM

Nirvana- In Utero.

I know its kind of cheating but I need to include the back cover of that one. The collage of all the weird stuff and how it all has a little meaning to it, thats incredible.

Mellowphobia13 01-30-2004 10:27 PM

nirvana nevermind

Mechanix 01-31-2004 04:47 PM

Pantera-Vulgar Display of Power

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

PaperCut 02-03-2004 03:02 AM

Someone has to give a vote for a Molly Hatchet cover, come on people!

loser_reject 02-14-2004 07:08 AM

best cover
 
Megadeth - Youthanasia or peace sells...but who's buying :smash:

k'! 02-14-2004 10:13 AM

The Beatles "White" album.

Pasha 02-14-2004 08:31 PM

I always liked Sgt. Pepper, Dark Side of the Moon (simple yet eloquent), and Bob Dylan and The Band's "Basement Tapes" cover.

cytoplasmicblob 02-14-2004 10:04 PM

can't forget islands by king crimson

seditionary 02-15-2004 12:04 AM
