The Best Artwork

[MetalThrasher442]

Persistence of Time IMO had the best art work.

This album didnt have heavy sound but the guitar riffs were killer.

Fistful of Metal or Spreading The Disease

Really? I don't like fistful at all(The artwork)

Persistence of time. Volume 8 was pretty cool too.

I never was a fan of the artwork for Persistance of Time. A bit too basic for my tastes. I think the best one has to be for Spreading the Disease. That was just incredibly well executed! State of Euphoria was good, and I love the stuff for Volume 8! The jacket alone was awesome!

Stomp442 all the way! WCFYA a close second, POT on the 3rd place.
The worst...SOWN and probably SOE.

 

[TheFarter]

Growing up The Farter loved SOE artwork, but TheFarter thinks that WCFYA is the absolute best Anthrax album/artwork/lineup/etc...

Spreding the Disease. I really enjoyed the artwork on the inside album jacket. The cartooning is classic Charlie stuff and, a great way to say thanks to the people working for and with Anthrax at the time.

STD was awesome. SOE (especially Mort Drucker's toons).
Worst cover Stomp (horrible!).

But in all honesty GO2E artwork was just killer!

Artworkwise I like Among The Living best, but I gotta admit "WCFYA" and "MOMD" were killer too! Artworkwise that is....

2 Evils and Vol. 8. PoT cheesy, Among classic 80s metal, Euphoria cheesedick, Fistful cool concept but a bit amateurish, Spreading classic 80s metal (Ripka, right?)

Spreading classic 80s metal (Ripka, right?)

That wasn't an Ed Repka. He used a heavier style and darker tones in his work, plus he was pretty bad at painting realistic human faces. I'm not too sure who the actual artist for this is, though.

Yeah, you're right....I've just remembered, I think it was on this board, someone posted a website of a graphic design company or something that had some work by the guy that did the Spreading cover. Fuck I can't remember what it was, exactly.

i think SOWN was the best. but does anyone know what the cover image is of?
it looks like a close up of something on a TV set but i don't know what!

i also really dug the whole POT concept and the way it carried through to the merch and packaging. (in my world picture disc!).
the winding clock on stage was also pretty cool.

"This album didnt have heavy sound "

whaaat!?

I agree with The Farter.
Though POT was good too. And Music Of Mass Destruction.
