I saw this album in a shop today and thought it looked prety cool

Seriously? I think that's one seriously ugly album cover. It's so... blah.

He's a Manchester United fan, and that's George Best on the cover - it's a reflex action

Choice

Of Elvis Costello albums though, my favourite's gotta be this (might have posted this before, but if so it's been a while, so what the hell);

^ I love that photograph. Shame the album beneath it's so boring though.

I admit that I only know of Battles because I liked the album cover.

I also love how Battles' aesthetic is so minimalist.

Great covers, I like the KISS one best.

Well, it has a bunch of different meanings depending on the context, but my favorite has to do with astronomy

Gravitational singularity - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

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)
