I'm an *artist*!

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

but otherwise I'm not that picky, I'm content with something like this too.

Best cover ever is Smell the glove. Far better than Metallica's or even Prince's black album. ;D

I'm suprised no one has mentionned any Dave McKean cover yet. :innocent:
Would his stock value be going down ?

And another fantastic cover :

Mark Ryden continues to vaguely disturb, his public exposure coming mainly from this album cover for Jack Off Jil...

Image

A better version exists at Mark's site, along with his deeply disquieting portfolio.

For offending the pure of heart and mind, I always liked having those mad bastards' Bloody Kisses on my shelf...

Who also get the award for Greatest Song Titles, Best Use of Silence for An Entire Track, a nomination for Most Entertaining Insert, and a Lifetime Achievement Award for Best Magazine Photoshoot for Pete.

Low has the best Bowie album cover IMHO. I love all the vibrant reds and oranges, pleasing to my eye.

Low reminded me of one of my all-time faves, also loaded with orange & red:

the double image of Iggy's face and his torso is just amazing.
