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.

tomacann · 01-20-2004, 03:25 PM

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

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 - Dirt or Facelift

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.
