Anything by Vince Locke and Cannibal Corpse... but this one is probably my favorite by him:

And nevermind how bad this album sucks... I think the COVER ART is amazing!

I'm looking forward to the album as well! Have to say I don't care for the new album cover much though...I like these two Tyr covers the best:

There are a ton of album covers I like...here's just a few more for now:

Always thought it kinda looks like the robot on the left has a pussy and is getting drilled by the the grey machine's green laser penis and the left one is squirting onto the right one - "Technical ECSTASY!!"

Then again I think all clouds passing by in the sky are showing me the same thing :lol:

PER WIKI........The cover art is designed by Hipgnosis and is meant to represent two robots having sex. Osbourne once described it as "two robots screwing on an escalator."

........VERY OBSERVANT GUYS!!

by **Ktulured55** » Tue May 17, 2011 4:54 pm

Lots of GREAT covers on here!!! Keep it going guys!!!

This my FAVORITE ALL TIME cover.

This is an underrated cover due to the album not being the best:

Don't have the time to post a pic of it (anyone can follow this up with a pic), but I love the Wintersun cover for some reason. I'll try to post a picture of it after work.

I really love this one - I bought two copies of the LP being scared that I could lose the first one somehow :lol:

by **soundcurve** » Sun May 22, 2011 4:25 pm

One of my faves is the ROM:512 series of work and the work on the inner sleeve. Anyone know the artist? I know Mortuus does layout stuff with holypoison. (Been looking to make a poster so the info would be helpful)

Another fave is more the piece that has been lifted a lot (Celtic Frost, etc) is the piece from Hieronymus Bosch. The detail is amazing if you ever see the huge one. Most take from the right pane.

I love the danzig and the Giger so a double dose of goodness for me. The full image is really awesome.

Last one from a artist I like was Weapon's - From the Devil's Tomb. I have the LP which shows better detail.
