I love the background, and especially love the typography.

Perfectly plain and abstract. Goes with the music, too, in an odd painted deer kind of way.

One of my favorite covers for one of my favorite albums. It's just very nice looking.

What CD is the third one?


Anyway,

[snorkel]

Oh yeah I meant to have Frances The Mute on there too, I love that one.

The third album is Past is Prologue by Tycho.

I DOWNLOADED VECKATIMEST LAST NIGHT

This isn't my favorite album cover, but I love this style that a lot of grunge bands had.



It's such a simple design but it was really cool on a lot of grunge LPs. If I was to record an album, I'd probably do a cover like that.

[Samus Aran]

This is probably my favorite album cover ever:




A couple others that I've really liked the look of just recently:






Also, two covers I really like by bands I don't even listen to (or in the case of Academy, bands I don't even like at all):

[strongbad]

[Thyme]

Just for good measure:

Yeah it is a punk-style of album covers, love them too.

I like MPP's cover lol.

[Samus Aran]

By the way, I actually own this book:



It's pretty damn cool.

And speaking of grunge and punk covers, I always liked the cover of Mudhoney's debut EP.

[sans culottes]

Yeah, that cover is awesome. In the 80's, it became a punk and grunge tradition to use black and white pictures that really say "FUCK YEAH ROCK OUT" on album covers.

[Boogus Epirus Aurelius]

But of course.....
