Artwork

[overthrown]

Lately I've been really into the artwork of CD's. Covers and booklets. There really are some great artist out there.. Paul Romano, John Dyer Baizley, Michael Whelan etc.

I was thinking we could share our favourites in this thread. So, you have any?

The first album I bought purely because of the artwork. (Interesting fact: This artwork was done by Jeff Walker from Carcass)

I just love pretty much all of their artwork

 

[Chipmonkcheeks]

I like the Endgame art work alot, even more since that video podgie put up about new world order where they went through it.

 

[Covet Chaos]

Check out works by a guy called Tom Martin I know Dave will be bumming Lee Gaskins in here, so ill leave all that up to him as he may know more than i do.

Still Life also have a great booklet - brought to life by the beautiful story that the album tells. I love that album

[Weapon X]

Seventh Son of a Seventh Son is one, but it's already shown.
This is why I was hyped about Evile getting this guy to do their art. Evile's IN cover is as good. (below)
