Simple question to answer.

One of my favorites has always been Metallica's Load. I like the complete design, and it fits the album.

Only thing I don't like? The way it was made. You can look that up for yourself.

I like how simple the cover for Arctic Monkeys' AM is while also perfectly capturing the vibe of the album:

I love the color scheme and font for The Weeknd's Starboy:

The simple aesthetics of Halsey's Badlands cover are nice:

I love how colorful, artsy, and weird Grimes's Art Angels cover is:

Lorde's Melodrama album cover is beautiful, very atmospheric and I love the colors:

Though this is only a small sampling, there are many others I like as well.

Ooh, I think I like this topic. :rofl2:

Here are some of my favorites (there are a lot):

Wee Small Hours.jpg
Frank Sinatra, need I say more? The iconic art for the iconic album that revitalized his music career.

A Trick Of The Tail.jpg
Out of all the Genesis album covers, I find this one the most alluring. There's a lot being said here.

American Pie.jpg
Don McLean must have known this album was going to make him a star, because it's a beautifully understated but timeless cover.

Come On Over.jpg
Come on, it's Shania Twain! Do I need another reason?

Leftoverture.jpg
This piece of art always spoke to me even before I knew all the album's songs.

A_Collection_of_Great_Dance_Songs.jpg
Pink Floyd always had a knack for thought-provoking album art, even for lackluster compilation albums such as this.

Pink_Floyd_-_Animals.jpg
Case in point...

Heart in Motion.jpg
Amy Grant is a class act.

The Forgotten Arm.jpg
I just love the style on this cover, and the meaning behind the title itself.

The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan.jpg
It's Bob Dylan. Need I say more?

Bob_Dylan_-_Bringing_It_All_Back_Home.jpg
No. No, I don't.

Definitely Maybe.jpg
This brings back so many memories.

The album art is cool. But the music is ten times better.

Crisis_ What Crisis.png
A searing indictment on the state of the world. And that's just the cover. As relevant today as it was forty years ago.

American IV_ Man Comes Around.jpg
It's Johnny Cash. No words necessary.

Mine is definitely ''My Everything'' and ''ARTPOP'' by Ariana Grande (the first one) and Lady Gaga (the second one). ''My Everything'' includes my favorite song of all-time which is ''Why Try''. ARTPOP is an OK album but I love it's album cover just like I do for ''My Everything''. I tried not to pick an Ariana Grande album but I just love her , I am an Arianator so yes, couldn't resist.

Me being a Swiftie aside, I love the simplicity of the cover.
(Took me a while to realize that her arms are by her side - I simply thought she had long sleeves are was loosely crossing her arms. Oh, well. Now I know...)

I also liked the cover of these two SpongeBob albums too.
