Beautiful Album Arts
Aesthetically pleasing, elegant artworks. |
| 1 |  | Fit For An Autopsy
Oh What the Future Holds
The inspiration for this list. Great album that I am confident I wouldn't have checked out if not for the album art. Made me realize album art can heavily dictate my enjoyment of an album. |
| 2 |  | Cynic
Traced in Air
My first "big discovery" on this site. Simply beautiful artwork. Only thing better is how it sounds. |
| 3 |  | Carcass
Surgical Steel
Simple, but has a sleek and deadly aesthetic that fits so well.
Carcass is back and there's no bullshit, just cold, sharp steel.
(Just don't look up their next album cover...) |
| 4 |  | Iced Earth
Plagues of Babylon
There's lots of good Iced Earth artwork out there, but the gritty atmosphere of this one hits harder than the other shinier or hellish ones. |
| 5 |  | Blind Guardian
A Twist in the Myth
Le epic dragon has arrived. |
| 6 |  | Infected Mushroom
Vicious Delicious
Haunting, enticing, disgusting. What an experience it was to discover this for the first time. |
| 7 |  | Machine Head
The Blackening
Fucking sick. Weird rectangular ratio, classic-style font, black and white aesthetic. Lots of unique things that just works well. |
| 8 |  | Slayer
Reign in Blood
Ugh I don't wanna be that "Slayer guy" but c'mon I can't not include this.
I apologize, it won't happen again. |
| 9 |  | Slayer
South of Heaven
Okay nevermind... |
| 10 |  | Julien-K
Death To Analog
Exudes a rad vibe that fits the album very well. The red splatter looks a bit too painty if you look at it close, but still badass at a glance. |
| 11 |  | Blind Guardian
The God Machine
My fucking god this is so good aesthetically while representing the band's evolution into a different direction. |
