I'm not really a fan of OLP's covers...though the one's with Saul on them are better than Gravity and HIPT.

I can't really think of my favorites though. Maybe The Joshua Tree? Kid A?

I LOVE the cover for Maroon! It's so cool. I actually used it in an art project.

I like the cover art for Augustana's All The Stars and Boulevards.


I don't know why. I just do. 8D

All Pink Floyd's artwork is awesome. I'm actually really digging the cover to Out Of Exile by Audioslave right now, perfectly sums up the music.

"All That You Can't Leave Behind" is a good cover for a group shot.

@YamiMarik528, you don't like SM or Happiness? They're just so... different, you know?
