What are my eyes retarded? no I didn't vote for the Tool cover - are you joking? are you? I nominated The Soft Bulletin because I think that cover is beautiful - and I do. The day I vote for anything related to Tool I want you you to stomp on my face Ryan Gosling in "Drive" style. You got that?

I actually much prefer cover of Aenima than Lateralus. I know that this one has a lot more going on, but I actually often dislike that, I generally prefer the covers to be somewhat "minimalistic" in nature...

I think I'll go with Soft Bulletin here

To be honest, I find most of Alex Grey's art to be fucking ipecac for eyeballs.

(Example 1:)


Buuuuuuuut I find his Lateralus and 10,000 Days covers to be pretty good, even if the man is still entirely incapable of understanding how to use colours that don't induce projectile vomiting.

I'm also just not that crazy about the Soft Bulletin cover. I think it's probably one of their weaker album covers, if anything.
