Talk Talk by default. It's not that I'm offended by the Scorpions cover... (It is pretty tacky) I just deduct points for a cheap attempt to draw attention. I don't find it profound, if that's what they're driving for.

Exactly. I'll vote for Talk Talk, even though I'm not a fan of their covers.

Huge fan of all James Marsh's artwork. He is releasing a book of Talk Talk artwork this year sometime.
As with Laughing Stock, I chose this in competition with Colour Of Spring and Spirit Of Eden. Don't know if I made the right choice.

If the Scorpions had left out the logo, that could have been a really beautiful, tasteful cover.

Oh boy, more proof that Purple's a total perv 
So yeah, as much as I dislike Talk Talk, I'd choose it over the crappy Virgin Killer any day.
