(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.
