the artwork and album covers of an album are very important to me. I often look over my cds and read the booklets and stuff...yep i am sad. My favourites work is by Storm Thorgerson. I have a book by him called mind over matter with like every piece of pink floyd imagery. I also love roger dean and whoever did the dream theater and symphony x work. ------------- The Worthless Recluse

Yeah Reed, The Sentinel is a fantastic cover. I've always liked that. On the other side of the coin however, we have MANOWAR...

The first two and last one I like because they seem to contribute to the overall feel of the album. They very nicely represent what the album IS. It sets the mood. Relayer is about war, and is harder-edged. The album cover shows the same. Fragile is a delicate balance of full-band masterpieces and smaller single works. Selling England is a buttery smooth procession of somehow related songs, and one of the songs (I know what I like) is fully based on the cover. I like Thick as a Brick's cover because of the ambitious "newspaper" it created, and it remains one of the most detailed covers to date. |
