It seems this year has seen a particularly large resurgence in the amount of B&W album covers. Just take a look at the top rated albums for 2013. There's....


Reflektor by Arcade Fire

and...

Trouble Will Find Me by The National

and...

Modern Vampires Of The City by Vampire Weekend

then...

Random Access Memories by Daft Punk


AM by Arctic Monkeys


Amok by Atoms For Peace

Looking a bit beyond those, we see...

The Next Day by David Bowie


The Raven That Refused To Sing And Other Stories by Steven Wilson


The 20/20 Experience by Justin Timberlake


Kveikur by Sigur Ros


Silence Yourself by Savages


Not to mention four of my favorite albums from this year...

Once I Was An Eagle by Laura Marling


In Rolling Waves by The Naked And Famous


I'm Sorry You Hit Your Head by Friend Roulette


LaterWhen The TV Turns To Static by Glasvegas

Anybody else notice this seems a bit more prevalent than usual?

Not really black and white 😕 But I've noticed what your initial point is.

I also noticed a surprising amount of pink album covers this year...

Ah-ha! So it's been slowly developing over the last two years!

And this:


Pure Heroine by Lorde

Ironically, Lady Gaga, whose last two albums were black-and-white, did a very colorful cover this time around.
