I decided this time to blog on one of my favorite forms of graphic design ever, the album cover. Since I was very young I distinctly remember the covers of many of my mom’s records, my all time favorite that I remember from when I was little (under 6) was The Rolling Stones, Let it Bleed. I was completely mesmerized by it; to this day it remains one of my top album covers ever. So I thought this would be an easy blog to write since I am very interested and enthusiastic about album artwork, however I have reached a problem I like far to may to list a picture of every single one so have compiled a collection of ones I like in no particular order and not necessarily my favorites, I would be interested to know other people’s all time favorite (not just from my list but any.)

i love the modest mouse - Good News For People Who Love Bad News.
inside cover is just as amazing!
i would show the image on this comment, but it didnt allow img tags.
In response to Phillip's comment about the Modest Mouse album artwork, it's because they're graphic designers.
I mostly listen to Hip-Hop, some of the covers that I really like are: Ice Cube-Kill at Will (EP), Ice Cube-Death Certificate, Boogie Down Productions-By any means necessary, NWA-Efil4zaggin, and Ol' Dirty Bastard-Return to the 36 Chambers:Dirty Version.
I like the Smashing Pumpkins "Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness" but I really enjoy their artwork the most on "Machina/Machines of God" I particularly like the font used in Mellon Collie. Pretty alternative rock yet sensual at the same time.
