What are your favourite album covers?

[Felken]

Judge them however you want. Looks, story behind it, resemblance to the music, whatever!
My picks:

Vapor Trails by Rush. I love this one. The colour, the font I could look at it forever!

This is everything I think a metal album cover should be. It's larger than life, semi-realistic. Those giant metal balls just scream metal.

So what about you guys?

So simple, so elegant, so recognizable drool

I hate to say it, I always liked their album covers more than I did most of the songs on the albums...

One newer one and one older one.

When I was a kid, I thought this cover was off the chain.

There is one and only one. All others pale by comparison.
