Your Favorite Music Album Cover

[Whirlwind 1,062]

Though Music is the main piece of art to the Artist. The little extra piece of Art also includes the Album Cover.

So do you have a favorite Album cover?

 

Note: Please keep album covers SFW.

 

I'll start with my favorite which is "Welcome" By Nu-Metal band Taproot

 

I like the artwork/photo here because it shows something to question whats behind that door. It can be anything that leads out to something uplifting as you escape darkness.

And the music is pretty good on this album too!

Sabaton has had some really cool ones, but the best has to be  "The Last Stand".

 

 

3 American Soldiers, WW1, WW2, Vietnam,a Samurai, 2 Spartans, a Polish Winged Hussar, and what appears to be a Soviet Soldier but with an M1 Carbine.

I've always loved this cover. I have very unique and contrasting album covers in my library, but this one always stands out to me.

Thats Very beautiful indeed  

[Denim&Venöm 20,473]

Lots of good ones, but this one stands out for some reason. 

 

Violent band. Violent album. But it's got a bit of hidden peace and grace with the woman and her body made of skulls. It implies tales of morbid violence, but doesn't outright say it.  A nice little contrast and unexpectedness.

 

Fun fact: this was actually the alternate, store friendly cover art. Personally I think this one is a bit more imaginative than the original.

[Kyoshi Frost Wolf 42,202]

Definitely Once by Nightwish.

 

 

It is amazing how much this one signifies a loss of hope. It is also beautiful of course.

Michael Jackson's Dangerous 

[Rarity Is Best Pony 634]

I'm partial to these three as my favorites visually.

I don't see a lot of album covers, but since it hasn't been mentioned yet: 

 

 

Dark Side of the Moon.

[DuskRain 193]

Me, with a superior taste in music to almost all;

 

 

Crywolf - Cataclasm

 

 

Aether - Von

Gives me feelings of nostalgia and mystery, as well as the music.

[El Duderino 881]

That's a hard question. I have a few off the top of my head I've always really liked.

 

 

Red Hot Chili Peppers I'm With You

 

Wilco Sky Blue Sky

 

Joe Strummer Streetcore

 

 

All very good albums too.
