The Sanity's Dawn cover that Carl posted is right up my alley. I like my album covers to be completely over the top ridiculous and that doesn't happen with straight stock photos. There's just so many more possibilities with drawings.

I don't like the sound of Deathstorm but the artwork for this recording of them is pretty rad.

I would also post that Deep Shit record in a "worst album cover" thread. It is so gawd-awful that I like it. Don't really care for the Pasta Power Violence, just thought it was goofy. Insect Warfare World Extermination has my vote too. And these:

I think the one thing that I can take away from this thread so far is that everybody likes totally different kinds of cover art. Pretty much. I'm just being a jerk about it. What if I added in that I really don't care for most of the art that you guys posted in this thread? Probably something along the lines of my posts sucking, right? I thought you had posted the most boring shit in this thread so far until I saw cokskar's post there... that Deep Shit album cover is fucking garbage and belongs in the trash. Haha, pretty much what I expected. There are some crudely drawn albums that I can take something from the art (at least one of the Slavescene EPs, or, a little more respectfully, all of Pettibon's artwork), but I think I care a lot more about color and typography than skulls or maybe something a little less condescending to point out about most of what I see in this thread. A lot of it just looks so flat to me. At least we can agree on Voivod! Speaking of Pettibon:

Since Gronibard got posted on the last page, I can at least mention that I have a soft spot for the artwork for Satanic Tuning Club (it's also the one album of theirs I actually like). There is something very endearing to me about that being the artwork not only for following up the ridiculous s/t art, but also being something so ridiculous to pair up with goregrindish anything.

Sometimes it's huge and sometimes it's normal. It happens to others on here too.

I like record artwork that I can get lost in. I want something so visually appealing that I daydream just looking at it, and I want to imagine myself in the situation. A record's artwork and layout should keep me occupied looking at it for as long as it takes me to listen to the record.

At the very least, anyone here who doesn't like ANb should at least appreciate their artwork on some of their releases:
