[Lordenlil]

Which are your fave album cover arts???
I gotta think more about this myself before I answer.
Post some pics if you can.

 

[Obyeybyeogone]

Divina Enema- At the Conclave

Coincidentally also my favorite album

 

[Analog_Kid]

Well, the only ones that come to mind immediately are:

Opeth - Still Life
Devin Townsend - Terria
Nevermore - D.H.I.A.D.W.
(yes, I'm a major Travis Smith fan)
Covenant - Nexus Polaris
Ulver - Perdition City

 

[Duvall]

Opeth - Morningrise
Tool - all of 'em (lenticular rules!)
Darkest of the Hillside Thickets - Cthulhu Strikes Back
Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here (dated, but nifty nonetheless)
Aphex Twin - Windowlicker

hate to say it.. but Manson - Antichrist Superstar - it has a really innovative design (so )

 

[Mosh Kosh]

immediate ones that come into mind are in flames covers (colony, TJR mostly)

 

[Obyeybyeogone]

Good to have you back Duvall

 

[Lordenlil]

Damn, Oyo!
I found that pic on the net sometime as I was creating images..
I needed some ruins etc... and I thought that was cool, so
I wanted to play with it... I too think it's great... but I don't
think I ever heard anything of the band, though...

They are from belarus, no one has heard of them. I have their album that was on a russian label or sth, it is going to be rerelased on an american label sometime. And they are currently working on a new album.

Go to mp3.com and check them out, I ruv it!

 

[Lordenlil]

Oh - they're on mp666.com... cool *going*

 

[Heliologue]

ok, so it was never used, but travis smith is awesome anyway. this cover, especially.

 

[Triste]

off the top of my head...

 

[Lordenlil]

It's really hard to decide, and we all probably forget some good ones... some if mine:

Emperor - In The Nightside Eclipse
Vintersorg - Cosmic Genesis
Emperor - Reverence
Darkthrone - Transilvanian Hunger (so damn EVIL)

Luciferion - Demonication

+most of what Travis God Smith makes

 

[Parasite]

Dream Theater - Scenes From A Memory
In Flames - Colony
Smashing Pumpkins - Mellancholy and The Infinite Sadness
Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here

 

[Izual]

some of my faves in no order:
burzum - filosofem
emperor - nightside eclipse
sacramentum - far away from the sun
opeth - morningrise
morbid angel - blessed are the sick
lord belial - enter the moonlight gate
borknagar - self titled (funny story: friend sees this CD with the barn in the mist on the cover and thinks it's country music... I got a good laugh at his reaction when i put the disc in. i said this is what norwegians consider "country music")
