Noteworthy album covers of 2011

well duh :)

Dunno if it's just me, but the font/existence of text totally ruins it

p cool otherwise

This is definitely diy indie schmindie design, but I like it more than most

Pretty sure that's Os Mutantes on the TNV cover. Nice.

new Lucinda Williams seems to have two different covers depending on whether you go for the regular or the "deluxe" edition, can't say I'm particularly enamoured of either of them:

love the water-jewelled insect

That'd be an alright cover if it didn't have the text that says 'toploader' on it.

isn't that the Geirbot?

why u make Geirbot cry?

insufficient melodics duh

Ewww is that a robot with a stiffy?

don't even known how you got that

Wish I could unsee it tbh

So many things to hate about that.

makes me angry, reminds me of hipster girls with tiger face tshirts

also bearsuit suck

and obv that tiger is not a bear and it isn't funny it is just, you look at the cover and say nope rong sorry

For me it's mostly that they gave the tiger "human" eyes, and that just recalls the furry/beast-human hybrid art that's all over the internet (and ALL of it is ridiculous).

But also the font, which sucks. (<--that's for DJP)

Ugh the eye thing is gross...didn't notice that

saw this one at a distance... and thought it said "Autotuned Is Now" :/

also bearsuit suck

So, wait, you think all bands need to have their album covers referring to their band name? Are you insane?

I have to say I don't really think the cover is that interesting; I'm not sure how it's "noteworthy" on either the good or bad scale.

no I'm just saying that something about that picture and that bandname, in that instance, it kinda bugs me

but yes, I am insane

love this

nsfw!!

If that nipple was the VERY FIRST thing you saw when looking at that cover, you're awesome. I didn't even realize the composition of the photo until the second time I looked at it.

love weeknd & tnv

(I'm a typography nerd and was awed by the top half)

I am a pervert and all I saw was nipple

but it's a great cover

Thought this one had been posted here but I guess not.

I'd have to stop myself from solving the maze, because the cover would have writing/lines all over it in no time.

Have you solved the one inside Their Satanic Majesties Request?

I have not ever owned that on vinyl.

(or cd or cassette, for that matter)

You know it's Geir's favorite Stones album!

No they don't.

they didn't used to, but i hate them now.

you know what should be posted on here? the pains of being pure at heart.

The Gift / Explode (haven't heard it, love the cover)
