Title: Cover art/Art attached to albums topic
Post by: cutter on August 05, 2016, 12:10:07 AM
I started this topic to let you share here your favorite album arts or arts who were into the albums.

Also, I'm looking for some nice album arts to make a self made t-shirt (because of lack of sizes and graphics, just showing my appreciation to artists)

I already made those two as my favorites:
Waves Crashing Piano Chords - Juggalo Power Electronics
(http://files.tinypic.pl/i/00809/ryvxsw40q9we.jpg)
Nicole12 - Braces 7''
(http://files.tinypic.pl/i/00809/rl6kpq3j81k7.jpg)

waiting for your favorites!

con-Dom cover is deeply moving.
Br kings the personal right up front.
so many other covers relate to an impersonal other and don't connect emotionally.
so much gratitude and praise to mike Dando for his bravery in choosing the cover.

love the colours here. the overall aesthetic  of cheap xtian illustrations is contained as needed. promoted as an interruption to exposed eyes.

Any kind of art done by Matthias Mützlitz, especially for his labels Monolithische Aktion and World Nihil as well as his own projects like Die Reitenden Leichen:

(https://img.discogs.com/jGLNlL9VasuXfQF8qYTp3pnyAQE=/fit-in/600x392/filters:strip_icc():format(jpeg):mode_rgb():quality(90)/discogs-images/R-1852337-1434622721-2758.jpeg.jpg)

Another label whose aesthetics I like a lot is Danish Moral Defeat. Some examples:

And some random ones that I find nice:

"Flowers Of Maltreatment" is also a fantastic title
