Antony and the Johnsons - The Crying Light
I love the black/white contrasts, and how the photo so brilliantly represents Antony's crying vocals.


This one, too.


And I'm sure there are some I can't remember at the moment.

I couldn't see that either until I went directly to the url. I like that album cover a lot too and especially appreciate how the designer was able to make something really high quality out of kind of generic pieces simply by virtue of a great composition and flawless typography.

Black Swan - Aererna

An album worth checking out by the way. Probably the sweetest drone album I have ever heard.

Ooh, I just thought of another metal album cover I like a lot. Very film noir-ish.
