    Hi there, Simple question: What's the best album cover/artwork you've seen? Here are some of my favourites I can spontaneously remember: "Inhale/Exhale" by Nasum http://www.nasum.com/images/disco/large_cd1.jpg "Exhume To Contaminate" by Rotten Sound (not THAT great, but I like it somehow) http://www.sureshotworx.de/public/fil/4/rottensound_ctc_s… "Swansong" by Carcass http://shop.relapse.com/dbimages/sleeves/8142_216.jpg And, of course, "Hellcock's Pornflakes" by Rompeprop :) (don't freak out, it's only plastic) http://www.teufelstomb.com/images/covers/rompeprop-hellco… What are your favorites??

    I always prefered the led zep 3 album cover, with the spinny thing. http://content.answers.com/main/content/wp/en/7/77/Ogden&… Ogdens Nut Gone Flake - The Small Faces Great album, shaped like a tabacco tin, one of the best examples of british psychedelic music imo.

    http://images-eu.amazon.com/images/P/B00005NWZ2.02.LZZZZZ… Very iconic, first 'modern' album covers some say, and in my opinion the best glam rock album ever. http://www.ilbaluardo.com/Cover/Audio/P%20-%20Q%20-%20R/R…

    I miss vinyl (yes they still sold LPs in "tape stores" when I was a kid). There was some phenominal artwork and a lot of room to do it in. I was poor as a kid, so while other kids were getting new walkman's, I got this old record player and some country and western records. Then I found my step-dad's stash. I remember seeing this album cover, and just being entranced by it. http://home.comcast.net/~shawmutt/queen1.JPG http://home.comcast.net/~shawmutt/queen2.JPG Then I played it, and the country and western records went bye bye. The next one I listened to was Kansas, not anything really special but holds a special place in my memory. http://home.comcast.net/~shawmutt/kansas.JPG There were many more, but those stood out in my mind, more for the memories.

    RATM is NOT glam, jack... :lol: great fuckin band, though. I was refering to Electric Warrior, you usually put the caption under the image, not above, FOOL. If you had heard some T.Rex (which you should do cos Bolan was a GOD!) you would have known I want refering to RATM. I can't liten to a whole RATM album in one go, it sooooooo fucking repetitive and the songs last ages but dont really evolve. News of the world is a bloody good album, their 3rd best imo, after Night At The Opera and Day At The Races.

    and in my opinion the best glam rock album ever. By AND I thought you were referring to the RATM picture you posted. I'm not a fool... lol.

    Getting very geeky here. The inside inlay of Wish yYou Were Here by Pink Floyd.... http://guest.engelschall.com/~sb/gallery/wywh/img/wywh_00… He is a syncronised swimming diver that had to hold his breath until all the water went still. Then snap. I love all these techniques that were used before digital manipulation....
