- Post subject: Alternative Album Artwork
|
Are there any pieces of alternative artwork that you prefer to the original? Or what version of an album cover do you prefer?
Here's a few from my collection

Much more rustic than the re-release version, in my opinion, suits the music better as something handcrafted.

The fall of a king is much more symbolic than screwing a harpy.
Summons a much more emotional response, and I think it's hard to understand what's happening in the original image when it's seen as just a thumbnail.
And for perhaps the most obvious choice...

Why the other artwork even exists any more, is a mystery.

I hate the cover for The 20/20 Experience, although I really dig the artwork for the vinyl

I also love the alternate artwork for Deathconciousness

I'm kidding! My real entry goes to "Ride the Lightning."

Technically the green cover was a printing error, but it counts.

That's The 20/20 Experience 2/2, it's a completely different album.

You didn't see me write "I;m kidding!" I know it's a different album. I plan to listen to it soon, despite my distaste for the first one.

Don't. If you didn't like the first you won't like the second. It's far worse, and that's coming from someone who loved the first.
Getting back on topic, I like the alternate art for Tyler's Wolf better than the original
