While I really enjoyed browsing these, I wondered if you know some album covers which are unintentionally similar to others? I'd give the following example:

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

^But only one is "none more black".
Smell the Glove!
Though at least one of these three was intentional. Possibly two.

I shared Magus / The Winter Tree's this visual art in our "Cover Chain Game", in the Just For Fun section. I believe this was not intentional. But, probably is related to the subconscious of the cover artist of Magus / The Winter Tree's album entitled Twilight of the Magicians. I tend to see such things within the scope of that which we call "coincidence".

The tree has a rather obscure "schizoid" face, and the neurotic eyes seems like looking in the same direction. The opening of the mouth is quite similar too.

BTW, I'm quite a lunatic in likening things to each other. But only occasionally mention them in order not to be seen as mad. Tongue
