Album Covers/Artwork

Lately I've been obsessive over album artwork. I think many times I will buy an album because of its cool artwork even if I have no idea what it's about. I'd love to see your favourites!

(I did not see a thread like this and also I think it goes better here more than Art Of Noise, but if is contrary, do forgive me.)


Here are mine:


Björk - Selma Songs (unit.bjork.com)

Sebastien Tellier - Politics (french-music.org)

DatA - Skywriter (chemicaljump.com)

Coldplay - Viva La Vida (ecopolis.org)

Daft Punk - Discovery (lemonsound.com)

And I did this one in collaboration with a friend, artist, and fellow musician named Sebastian for my friend Noah's album Human Geometry.

Love the cover for Ed Rec Volume 2! So Me is amazing! (plong.com)
