[madmonkeykungfu]

anything that doesn't include the band's fugly faces

 

[Jr-V]

Prefer those painted by artist..

 

[Mr_KeyboardMan]

how bout a combination of all ..

Photo of the band members made sexy with skimpy clothes (maybe accompanied with hot babes if all band members are males), holding instruments, sketch, band logo on the top left of the cover, plain white on the back cover and with scenery as background

 

[Lombardo]

Animation Graphics or sketch would be cool

 

[neuro182]

If the entire album is metal-plated, it'd definitely be a collector piece :wink:

Just my point of view.

I think the cover must look fierce ah, fierce .... I like papa roach's first album cover .. Nice cawkroach on the cover ...

 

[rylche]

I generally weigh the artist name more than the album cover, though i can say that i'm attracted to artsy sketches =D

 

[lppier]

Drawings appeal to me... those arty type also.

You're my kinda guy!

I like covers with something more abstract and with a touch of the macabre, and representative of the kind of music played. And a blazing band logo on top! Altho I do like how some modern bands vary their logos on each release.

I dislike Cds with band member's faces on the front cover, cept for solo artists of course. And I also dislike covers with too much digital work. It lacks a personal touch and looks rushed.
