I thought it'd be a nice idea to post your favorite covers. Please, if you can post only one and try to find a picture of it. Also say why you like it. Thank you.

Well, i would say all MoonSpell albums.
The cover really reflect the theme of the album directly from the 1st look, and my fav is Sin Pecado

It isn't the best quality,but you can still tell it's awesome,reminds you alot of Lord Of The Rings,maybe Emperor got their idea from this album.As for the band they are a british death/crossover group,and I want to get this album.

Lately Ive been taking into serious consideration what the best album cover of all time is, and then it dawned on me, it was an epiphany, I was angry with myself for not realizing it earlier, and its not even a matter of opinion, its a fact, the greatest album cover of all time is:

I'd say, every cover drawn by Kristian Wåhlin is the best, but If I have to chose one, It could be this:

the first three kalmah albums all have good artwork, however, their latest, the black waltz, well, lets just say, needed a LOT better artwork, it was crap - music still good though

I agree with the Emperor and the Immortal album covers above.

Also I would like to add Dio's Master of the Moon album cover.

Agree with the Immortal and Emperor. Norwegian black metal bands have some cool covers.

I don't know, how many have already added this, but it is just worth the add. One of the best I've ever seen . . .



Just look at the beauty of this scenery.
The mountines, the candle spruces and the way the morbid white light of wintersun reflects from this all.

You can absorb the atmosphere and be there.

How about this one...? :

The Old Dead Tree - The Water Fields



It really succeeds in describing what the album is about, what the music of The Old Dead Tree is like.... And i love the way the colours were brought together ..., really nice, though a bit strange....
