Top 3 Album Covers

[Rooster893]

OK Escapist, this thread is about album covers.

What are your top 3?

EDIT: Search Bar Approved.

My top 3 are:

Rush - Caress of Steel

Megadeth's The World Needs a Hero

And Iron Maiden's Powerslave

 

[Onyx Oblivion]

I have no clue off the top of my head, as the bands I listen to don't tend to have covers all that cool or memorable.

These eco packaging things are getting annoying, though. I don't want a cardboard CD case!

EDIT, found a few in my CD collection:

Spoiler: Pearl Jam,Backspacer

 

[Scully]

I dunno all three, but I'd have to put Bat Out of Hell up there somewhere

 

[Apache2142]

Offspring-Rise and fall, rage and grace album the others i cant even think of, im sure RATM covers were decent.

 

[StigmataDiaboli]

My choices:

Pink Floyd - 'Dark Side of The Moon' as it's an iconic rock image
MUSE - 'Absolution' for no reason apart from I like it
Kerrang! Magazine - 'Maiden Heaven, A Tribute to Iron Maiden' because you'll know when you see it.

(My third choice is actually a free album that came with Kerrang! magazine but it still rocks regardless)

(Sorry, dont know how to embed images)
