WretchedCacophony
06.14.24 | Suffocation. first 3 are iconic. Everything after that is hit or miss |

Wildcardbitchesss
06.14.24 | Converge obv |
IsisScript80
06.14.24 | Yeah, comes down to designer...
As mentioned, Converge, but bands that feature the work of Jacob Bannon, John Dyer Baizley, Paul Romano, Derek Riggs, Ed Repka, etc., end up looking pretty iconic and sweet.

BookoftheFallen
06.14.24 | anything made by dan seagrave or Necrolord |
Pon
06.14.24 | Like others have said, it comes down to the artist and pretty much everything by Dan Seagrave is amazing. Other than that, Artificial Brain have had great covers which are all thematically consistent. |
NexCeleris
06.14.24 | Yeah, Seagrave is probably the greatest. I'll throw in Mariusz Lewandowski and Eliran Kantor. |

06.15.24 | @Tim
Nice Alcest rep
Idk about bands but my favorite album cover maybe ever is Kodama, it's so cryptic yet peaceful. |
Ladron93
06.15.24 | Sleep's Dopesmoker is a great album cover.
idk which best metal album cover is there for me, but some Judas Priest's album covers have a nice art style. I do like the late 70s and 80s ones. |
DeadGuy
06.15.24 | The artist Tony Koehl has done some cool ones. He's done quite a few. |
Jurtz
06.15.24 | Thank you guys for your input! Please stick to the format band - example album, because if I have to research the artists (i.e. painters, designers) that some of you mentioned here, this could become a second job. :P |

IsisScript80
07.04.24 | Per my earlier comment in this thread, when it comes to designer, please add Baroness (John Dyer Baizley -- first couple of records count as "Metal" anyway) and Megadeth (Ed Repka).
Also, forgot ISIS in my earlier comment (Aaron Turner).
That said, as it's now a vote, I'd still probably go for Converge (Jacob Bannon). |
Egarran
07.04.24 | Mercyful Fate - Melissa should be here |
Kusangii
07.04.24 | I'll add In the nightside eclipse if more than one vote is acceptable (which is seems considering SomeCallMeTim) |
