Best Album Covers

I like me some TISM cover art, not because of any specifically great photo or drawing, but because it takes a special kind of genius to release your album in cover art that doesn’t mention your band name once, has a fake track listing, and includes a dissertation on Italian renaissance politicians on it.

My first thought was to post Tool Lateralus, but then I saw Deckham had posted it. Then, on further scroll, I saw that I had also posted it 7 years ago.

A few others that I like:

Another by Roy Harper. At first sight it looks like a sunlight beam is falling on his forehead. Closer inspection shows it is not his thumb shown in is right hand, but an eraser, and he is rubbing himself out.

Razor’s Edge is such a great piece of Australiana.
