nothing beats this
god that van halen shit is gay. it looks like something people that grew up in the 50s and 60s, that saw "greasers" that would be tough guys with cigarette packs rolled into their sleeves and hair like that and thought "oh shit, it would be edgy to suggest that a child-like angel would SMOKE!"
fucking pathetic. i'm using the same dynamic in a television show i've been developing but it involves nuns and drugs in the 70s. you western european morons are so easy to manipulate with icons like that; doing drugs isn't conforming, but nuns conform, so nuns doing drugs is SO FUCKED UP! (when it really isn't)
This album I had full blast while I stayed up 48 hours doing every single assignment I had for my finally year of math class in the last day I had of school.
We got some bangers in here boys
At the time I overlooked it, but with tyler because he's so eccentric, you easily overlook the simplistic things that have these touches of genius.
That main picture and the facial expression alone is so simple yet accompanying some type of idea.
Just like his radio freestyles where he used to joke around and do parodies basically, like on Sway and how the whole performance got better when he started mean mugging the camera, and Sway goes ''Don't hesitate to punch the camera if it pisses you off'' or something like that
true artist
for real, Cred Forumsesspool still got it.
>i'm using the same dynamic in a television show i've been developing
Lol what a fag. Enjoyed your analyses tho dude. Kewl!
Cool opinion bro.
tyler fucking sucks what are you smoking
Can't remember the name of the guy who designed this cover. I believe they also did AC/DC's Dirty Deeds too
>Storm Thurgeson
>something like that
>too lazy to google for correct name
>also did an album cover art for Anthrax's Stomp 442

You have a vivid imagination, and you drew up a scenario that could've been plausible.
If not for the fact that even if it was, this wasn't their idea, their idea was much more cliche, basic, normie and corny.
The dichotomy here was just to show something eccentric in a way that's not ''Even an angel can be a devil'', or a ''let's grease up a baby'', but just an artist taking from real life unlikely scenarios, quite literally not trying to be normie but also not pushing it.
This was originally a real picture of a baby holding a candy cigarette.
Not sure if you remember, hell I remember because they had them like 10-20 years ago too.
But candy cigarettes were a thing, this baby was apparently in reality holding something like that, and it's not a random picture either, a woman took a picture of her friends baby picking up (candy) cigarettes.
That woman was the artist for the cover art, she drew with the picture she took for inspiration as reference.
Van halen also had the corniest basic idea for their cover art and this based woman declined because of the usual artist clownery where they don't want to do certain things but also get paid.
In reality that clown shit is best when it works out as you keep your dignity, and this woman had an even more based husband who forwarded her portfolio to Van halen anyway after she didn't agree to their ideas, and they still went with her works.
I'll add the description
The cover art was created by graphic artist Margo Nahas.[11] It was not specifically commissioned; Nahas had been asked to create a cover that featured four chrome women dancing, but declined due to the creative difficulties.[12] Her husband brought her portfolio to the band anyway, and from that material they chose the painting of a putto stealing cigarettes that was used.[13] The model was Carter Helm, who was the child of one of Nahas' best friends, whom she photographed holding a candy cigarette.[13] The front cover was censored in the UK at the time of the album's release. It featured a sticker that obscured the cigarette in the putto's hand and the pack of cigarettes.[14] The back cover features all four band members individually with 1984 in a green futuristic font.[15]

lol you fucked him with facts.
Boomer 1 x 0 Ignorant Zoomer
Lol I don't even like that album. But the 1000s of pills set up to look like a face is impressive.
Nothing gay about that at all
Or, it’s just a fucking album cover from a release that was 3x platinum. Sure, from a cliche 80’s band in a party atmosphere. Settle down fella. Maybe at least try to approach and talk to a girl once instead of keyboard warrioring.
Nice try Sammy Hagar!!!
This pic just reads of drugs and std’s
Waiting for the mandatory Neutral Milk Hotel cover...
Why does Eminem always have to look like a scared Swedish boy
WHO CARES NERD
Nobody here gets it. I do. Peter Gabriel 1,2,3,4
"eminem" is swedish for "scared boy"
He has dope covers
And he's gay
he's definitely suspect
27, that sweet spot inbetween, I get to hate on both

Yep. Car, Scratch, Melt, Security
I was actually laughing reading through his “synopsis”.
*reeks
You don't even know who you're talking to anymore, dumbass.
I do. But does it fucking matter?
I will never understand why people like this cover so much it is boring af
Storm Thorgerson, his company was
Hipgnosis and they did the most memorable album art of the 70s and 80s
Cause it's an optical illusion i guess
I LOVE YOU JESUS CHRRRIIIIISSSST
All but the earliest Pink Floyd Album Art was Storm Thorgerson's including that Division Bell cover also posted in this thread. My favourite was Pink Floyd Animals but to be fair the best part of THAT (besides the flying pig) was the art deco Battersea Power Station
Album?
Jesus christ I love you
The thread wouldn't be complete without it
Forever my opinion of what an acid trip would look like
Ssscoltaaa...
Pretty sure this a "Red Mars" "Green Mars" "Blue Mars" reference
Trying to emulate a 70’s cover. Wow, you’re cool Dave.
This one's nice.
Love this Album cover. I don't even love the music as much as the album art, lol.

Nagel is the best.

Well, was the best.

It's a parody of it satan, just read the album name

See how "Paul" is the only one out of step wit the others? It's just more evidence the real Paul was replaced.

loli guro?
Phish's album art is about as good as Phish's music.
And, it depends on how many drugs you've done as to what the above statement means
I always loved this one
Ringo looks a little special needs in that picture
what did the one dead head say to the other dead head when their pot wore off: dude, this band sucks.
When has Ringo not looked special?
Great album with a great cover.
