Any contenders?

I dunno......Tool&#39;s Lateralus cover is something quite freaky
Every page you turn reveals a different view of the actual cover.
I think it&#39;s like, the different systems in the human body.
Kinda messed me up the first time I saw it....

I&#39;m sorry, but how anyone can describe this as "crap spam" is beyond me&#33;
This is one of the most thought provoking threads I&#39;ve ever seen on this board.
As soon as I saw the title, I thought "King Crimson "court of the crimson king" & hey presto, there it was :D
Well, here are a few I think merit inclusion:
The first Iron Maiden albums (up to "Powerslave")
Led Zep "IV"
The Clapton album with the melted guitar on it (can&#39;t remember the title?)
AC/DC "If you want blood "(Ah, memories&#33;)
Pet Shop Boys "Absolutley"
Happy Mondays "pills, thrills & bellyaches"


:D :D

well i have one that could beat that one.

This is The "our little secrets" cd cover.
http://www.lordsofacid.com/albums/big/64.jpgharmless you may think shes pretty hot alot of you may think. weird i you think not. but what you dont see is the full cover that folds on the inside.
which reveals the hot chicks package in her skirt. now that is a rude awakening and beats them all. maybe just for the transvestites portion of the program :blink:

zacspeed - I couldn&#39;t agree with you more, and thanks for the kind words, unlike those which that Freakin Moron NEMO wrote - HIS reply was Spam itself, as it had nothing at all to do with this topic. His reply simply takes up space and wastes my, your and everyone else&#39;s time having to scroll past it. What an ass&#33;

A Couple Of Greats...

nice topic but cant think right now

ALex Lloyd Watching angels Mend

Spiritualized are really the masters of packaging. They&#39;re released CDs in blister packs
(like pills come in), molded plastic cases, etc.

one of the coolest album covers ever was Plastikman - Sheet One:
http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B0...1.LZZZZZZZ.jpg

The cover is perforated into small squares, like LSD tabs.
The Pink Floyd - Animals cover is one of my all-time favorites, simply because they actually went
to the trouble of making a giant pig balloon and floating over that old plant, rather than just
superimposing the image or something.

That&#39;s all the covers I can think of now.
