Not sure if this one was already mentioned but it goes along so nicely with the album...

Basically, a point in spacetime where gravitational forces causes matter to have an infinite density and zero volume. really mind-boggling. and that's what I interpret that cover to depict, since it resembles a black hole somewhat (well, if black holes were possible to depict)

Wow. I think I'll look into Mae now too, hopefully its as good as the cover.

It amazing how people really do judge things by their covers

I found this in my collection today and got it out to play in the car, and I always knew it had nice artwork... but it just struck me today how wonderful it is.

Got to be some of the finest artwork you'll see on an album.

What's not to like?

Also, this is the dog's bollocks:

I like that better. Don't know about the Stone Roses one, just doesn't appeal to me. Maybe if I listened to them it would appeal to me more, but otherwise I'm unmoved.

Why don't you listen to them? Their S/T is a great album. I forgot how great it was, it's been months. So glad I decided to shuffle through some CDs.
It made me think, I really need some favourites on CD.
I have some horrible albums on CD.
Every Oasis album, GNR Appetite For Destruction, Velvet Revolver.
Urgh. Buying some new ones is in serious order.

Maybe what I've heard didn't appeal to me enough - but also they didn't get all that much exposure over here (not that that's kept me from listening to obscure bands). I think I remember liking a song at some point, I don't know.

I find that artwork to be completely boring, as is all MM artwork.

I'm thinking of hanging a big version of this one on my wall

So simple, yet so beautiful
