Here are some of those not pictured or mentioned yet...
Slip Stitch and Pass, a live album that Christgau has deemed their best, whose cover was designed by the late Storm Thorgerson of Hipgnosis who designed dozens of album covers and more for Pink Floyd (DSOTM among many others), Led Zeppelin, Genesis, ELO, UFO, Wings, and many others

Joy, the reunion album, was designed by New York "psychedelic" artist Fred Tomaselli, represented by James Cohan in the US and White Cube in the UK, and whose work has also been included on Magnetic Fields, Eleventh Dream Day and Laura Cantrell album covers, as well as in The Wilco Book

Fuego, the follow-up, was designed by partly SVA-trained and LA-gallery-repped contemporary Spanish surrealist Paco Pomet, whose work is currently in a Murakami/Juxtapoz-curated group show in Vancouver

Big Boat, the most recent album, was designed in-house by long-term band creative director/management member Julia Mordaunt, who is I believe the stepdaughter of a member of a smalltime New England jam band and Phish influence who plays with the bass player's side project

Yeah, I liked the Rift cover when it came out but I think that was before the popularization of I Spy/Where's Waldo type books. It was cool at the time but became trite in retrospect.

hahahaha, that phish cover sure is late-period thorgerson. look! it's an improbably large ordinary object! (i prefer thorgerson's cover to _presence_, which instead features an improbably _small_ object...)
that film started out as a fake guitar instructional video starring col. bruce hampton that kind of got away from them... i don't think i'd ever _watch_ it but i find the concept of it kind of appealing.
how has this thread gotten this far without mentioning oysterhead?
