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.

Ok, I couldn't find another way, but this way it shows it. Happy posting.

..as have Dissection. This is my favourite:


I never just say this out of nowhere, but damn.
That is as bad as it gets! Probably even worse than that Woman wearing a goat's head passed off as Baphomat on the first page of this thread. This cover screams out corny bad 80s comic book cover.
Dissection always have album covers that were horrible and only seemed dark to kids under 10 or the same people who find King Diamond evil and does not think he looks like a Mexican wrestler.
Necrolord is the most overrated album cover artist I can thnk of.

I have one favorite album cover.
Helloween - Chameleon

Where did that come from?

I don't know, you know when you see a million of the same things and just snap?
Well I did, and I COMPLETELY apologize, it's not that bad, but comical that it is for a black metal band. Just looks so light hearted.

Wow, Mega-Slayer, that one is nice. I love covers that are in blue-tints, mostly when they have icy scenerios.. It's so necro.

Why not? I don't see anything wrong with being minimalistic.
I don't know, I can't explain it, not like I know anything about art or anything.

I've totally fallen in love with the following album:



The cover is simple and effective, displaying the beauty, but also the threatening darkness, that emanates from nature. "Ernte im Herbst" is German and means "Harvest in autumn." Mother nature is being destroyed and finds herself in the autumn of her own life, so the time has come to harvest the seed she sowed long time ago and get rid of the parasite called mankind. Awesome album, awesome concept, awesome artwork!
