Stereolab is a band of great album artwork but goddamn the way these colours work awakens something in me beep bop brain
Low on my list of blood orange albums but honestly can not think of a more beautiful album cover to be honest. Always on my mind
Your turn
Alright glad to see the kids got the jokes out of the way so we can begin to discuss true beauty and a facet of the art that’s slowly being lost over time with covers become teensy tiny little thumbnails on our pocket machines (I don’t do jokes anymore, starting today)
90% of album covers are bad IMO, if we take the criteria for a good cover as something that it is a good piece of art or design on its own, but also encapsulates the actual music contained within. I think that's very difficult to do though so I am sympathetic

Maybe that’s what makes the other 10% feel like actual magic

ok op here’s a serious pick
The 70s >>>>>>
That Rick James cover is so bad but not bad as I’m not good. It’s bad in the same way Rick James is a bad motherfucker
I love the colours on this
Absolutely love this. Company flow ass cover. I need to check this album out on the strength of this alone
Like the other guy was saying, it’s hard for a cover to encapsulate what an album is about. With that being said, the clams instrumental trilogy covers perfectly capture the aesthetics and sound of the time. Master class
