Favourite album cover?

What's your favourite album cover? Give a reason if you like.


I like Orchid the best (and no I'm not gay :Smug: ).

 

[AndICried]

Still Life and Morningrise. Had to vote Still Life, as it's probably the most meaningful in context with the album, as well as beautiful.

 

[Episode 666]

Orchid.... Just that lonley flower on a black background... Stunning...

 

[no country for old wainds]

Blackwater Park. Utterly haunting.

 

[Hope Leaves]

Blackwater Park...I love it

 

[Stormwatch]

I love the pair of Deliverance and Damnation, the dark imagery is just perfect.

Orchid.... Just that lonley flower on a black background... Stunning...

considering your avatar, i'm surprised you chose orchid (when morningrise is clearly the best)

 

[Schism]

Still Life, the colour scheme and the saddness, just beautiful!

 

[stefan86]

Blackwater Park

 

[Immortal Death]

My favorite would be Orchid.

 

[Kalabalik]

I went for the masterpiece that is Still Life - music and coverwise.

 

[Darkness Falls]

gave my vote to My Arms, Your Hearse. Not the best lookin picture ,but it has an eerie feeling to it. Not sure if its a lake or the ghost the woman is standing by. (hard to tell)


I really like all the covers. Esp the reissued morningrise (black & grey).

[NOONE]

I voted Morningrise. BWP is a close second though.

 

[Dreadful]

I love all Opeth covers, I weep in melancholy everytime I see one. But my vote is on Still Life, because it grabs me by the testicles very hard, that cross is just demanding. the crimson background is just...relentless.

 

[Ermz]

Still Life and Morningrise.

 

[narcisco]

That is just one cool looking bridge. My architectural side shows through lol.

 

[Midwinter_melancholY]

Morningrise

Blackwater Park comes second..

 

[no country for old wainds]

Heh. Morningrise has the eyes, don't forget the eyes.

(Turn it anti-clockwise 90 degrees if you haven't seen them already)

 

[MasterOLightning]

Morningrise is clearly the best. One of the best album covers I've seen anywhere. (Honorable mentions: Powerslave, Rust in Peace, Master of Puppets) I don't like the SL cover. It has too much color. I like the dark monochromatic covers like MR and D1 and D2.
