I was about to start a new topic for noise/pe cover art but then found this one from ten years ago or something. So, let's continue with Macronympha - Intensive Care. One of the first noise cds I bought and probably my favorite Macronympha as well. The images of sex and death fit perfectly together: swollen and mangled corpses, close up of female anus, interesting juxtaposition of circuit board and burned hands, and on the backcover a picture of Roemer's father on a ventilation machine/deathbed. All elements, starting from the chosen font, are crude and aesthetically pleasing.

Bizarre Uproar - Indoctrination of Fist and Cock. It's Mr. Bizarre with his semi-erected cock out! Some might say homoerotic, but I say this is great. Melting Pot of Cultures also has fine use of digipak layout. When you open the covers you can see the cock erected first to the left, then up and finally right! Btw. what's with the black covers of many BU albums? Or Bizarre SS collaboration. It's just BLACK with just barely visible swastika on the cd. Outcome of cover art not being allowed to be printed? In that case I understand but otherwise a missed opportunity as BU is known for the striking visuals.

Con-Dom - How Welcome Is Death To I Who Have Nothing More To Do But Die. Another family relative on a deathbed. Works very differently from the Macronympha one. I can't say this is my favorite cover, but it's definitely one of the most powerful ones. Album itself is a personal and harrowing masterpiece. Not to be enjoyed!
