Top 5 Best Album Covers?

[zabu of nΩd]

I'd say they're a good step above goat heads, random severed body parts, and textureless digital art.

 

[Slayed Necros]

Hell yes.

 

[Omni]

 

[Hatebreeder]

This page pisses me off when it loads.

Anything by Kristian Wahlin, especially:

 

[zabu of nΩd]

That Graveworm's pretty awesome.

I've always loved these two:

Dude, how can ANYONE fucking think Spiritual Healing has a cool cover.

Clearly you've gone mad. Repka at his finest.

 

[Rumpole]

These images don't do justice to the Solstice and Pagan Altar covers, you really need to see them up close.

 

[Avigrus]

I hadn't seen it before but I agree that the Usurper one is cool. Also agree with VVVVV that Spiritual Healing sucks, and I don't like the nerdy sketched black metal covers that look like something out of a fantasy book.

Others I like:
Arghoslent - Incorrigible Bigotry
Agalloch - The Mantle
Aeternus - Beyond the Wandering Moon (distinctly lacks a castle with a stone bridge, such that it does not conflict with my above statement)

[The Ozzman]

Why do people consider Souls of Black to have good album art?

 

[Belligerent]

Dude, how can ANYONE fucking think Spiritual Healing has a cool cover.

Exactly.


Now a few of my fav's:

 

[The Ozzman]

Symbolic's cover is pretty shitty

 

[Belligerent]

Fock u mang I like it.

 

[metalISmetal]

In no particular order.

 

[ossa]

I'm going to have to agree with the people who say Spiritual Healing has some shitty cover art. If I walked into a record store and didn't know it was a Death album, I'd probably assume that it was a shitty local underground band who couldn't afford a cool artist.


EDIT: I don't really listen to Angra anymore, but I've always really liked the cover art for Temple of Shadows.

 

[The Ozzman]

EL OH FUCKING EL at Ed Repka not being a cool artist
