Don't you love walking the aisles of a record store? I certainly do...they say "Dont judge a book by it's cover" but i beleive you can tell alot from an album cover.
So...whats your favorite album cover artwork?
Could it be the likes of Sgt. Pepper - The Beatles or Their Satanic Majesties Request by the Rolling Stones, or ELP,Led Zepplin,and so on and so on....anything you like at all! ;)
Just two off my fav cover's to begin with are:

Emperor - In The Nightside Eclipse


Obituary - Cause Of Death

Didn't have time to scout around looking for them. When I get home later, I'll make it my business to.

Load slightly gross? What is it that makes it gross? I can't even tell. *keeps looking* ... *searches google for a bigger pic* Ok, I have a better idea of what it is, but I'm still not completely sure. Confirm please! :)

It's a whopping ;) ?12.99 on amazon.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B...2723570-7478841

You're just too lazy to shop yourself. Tut!

Great album though. I only have it on record myself. Unfortunately I don't have a record player anymore :( but really want to get one.

Some nice stuff in here :D like the 'spocks beard' one, although i'v never heard of that or them before!? Pink Floyd....you can never go wrong with anything of Floyd's!!!i guess thats why there the most best selling artists of all time ay! ;)
...and Dave i'll never understand why the hell they banned that album cover by ELO???? of all the album cover art i'v seen within the metal scene would make you wonder why!?

I'm not saying this cover is one of my alltime favorites but that of just pure interest....kinda funny in a way too



...ooh yeah Angel Eyes, about the Metallica 'Load' cover....lets just say that someones busted there load!!! and that makes an album cover???
unfortunatly i'v heard this album and its not that great...nowhere near as good as 'Kill em All' 'Master of Puppets' and ...Justice For All etc true classic metallica
