Classic album artwork as postage stamps

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.

Maybe it's the Storm cover they like rather than the content. :)

DSOTM would have been good, The Wall would have been great, and then again there's Keef's Favourite Album Of All Time... :innocent:

Mine features a different trouser for each month; Corduroy one month, Farrah slacks the next, a bit of plus 4 action...you get the idea.
