The GOOD album cover thread.

[Satanstoenail]

Ok since the other thread was locked due to retardedness, I thought I'd open one with some guidelines. Post inspiring and interesting non-metal album covers here. Covers must have some form of visually pleasing artwork, concept or story. And by visually pleasing I of course don't mean happy flowers and rainbows, I just mean they must have some redeeming feature. Discussion about said covers is welcome.

Well, I'll just throw this one up again. One of my favorite album covers (and albums):

By the way, Satanstoenail, love the Kyuss and Sausage album covers.

Some I like:

 

[Einherjar86]

^Those are awesome! What is the first one? Also, who draws the covers for that Tor Lundvall guy?

EDIT: Never mind, I guess it's Tor himself.

 

[Vilden]

The first one is Sol Invictus - The Blade. Probably my favourite cover art ever not only "non-metal", also one of the best albums ever. :>

I used to own that album and I never really noticed, but yeah that is a great cover.

By the way, Satanstoenail, love the Kyuss and Sausage album covers.

The Sausage one has always been a fave. The frustration of drowning in your own bloated body brings the lols every time.

Couple more:

 

[Vossyrus]

Marilyn Manson's Mechanical Animals.

..and the reversible album cover is just as cool.

I just realized that I posted metal albums in a non metal album thread. Fuck.

 

[Satanstoenail]

Yeah I was wondering about that

For those who don't know, Ministry Psalm 69.

 

[Mort Divine]

 

[Belligerent]

^The middle two look like a third grader was doodling.

 

[Unfaithfully Metalhead]

but there Metal though...

 

[Mort Divine]

No they're not.

 

[Satanstoenail]

Belligerent: Good call on Psalm 69, excellent cover.

Unfaithfully: AC/DC are the definitive Hard Rock band.

 

[Belligerent]

Belligerent: Good call on Psalm 69, excellent cover.

Most def, one of my favs. Great song too, "DRINKIN' THE BLOOD OF JESUS"

 

[Einherjar86]

I think Unfaithfully was being sarcastic about the AC/DC comment.
