(Note: This match with last 7 days)
Which album cover is better? 
Unknown Pleasures
Joy Division
Released in 1979
Genre: Post-Punk
Nominated by JoyofDivision
Album art comes from an edition of the Cambridge Encyclopedia of Astronomy, and was originally drawn with black lines on a white background. It presents successive pulses from the first pulsar discovered, PSR B1919+21
or
In The Court Of The Crimson King
King Crimson
Released in 1969
Genre Progressive Rock
Nominated by Jhereko
Album art by Barry Godber (1946–1970), a computer programmer, who painted the album cover. Godber died in February 1970 of a heart attack, shortly after the album's release. It would be his only painting, and is now owned by Robert Fripp.
And this match will conclude the tournament.

Even if CK doesn't win, we can all take solace in the loss of the VU

I like that these are the two finalists-they're both pieces of cover art that represent the music inside perfectly, which should be the absolute first job of a record cover. I'd be happy with either winning but I voted for Court.

I don't hate Unknown Pleasures, but it's only cause I associate with Joy Division that I think I like it.
In the Court is a much better cover on its own.
