Favorite Album Covers of 2011

Hark and lay thine eyes upon my favorite album covers of 2011! These are the covers that either initially attracted me to the album before listening or just stayed with me. Basically, i just think they're cool. Here we go...

Hank Williams III - "Ghost to A Ghost/Guttertown" - Just a cool pic. The painting he's Christ-posing in front of is revealed in full, awesome detail in the liner notes.

Tyler The Creator - "Goblin" - This one, i can't explain. Something about it just pops to me.

Alvarius B. - "Baroque Primitiva" - It'a bunch of naked girls laying in a circle. How could this not be on the list?

Tim Hecker - "Ravedeath, 1972" - Aside from having one of the coolest titles of the year, the picture of a picture of a bunch of college kids throwing a piano off a building speaks to me on a level even i don't understand. It just barely missed the cut for albums of the year too.

Thee Oh Sees - "Carrion Crawler/The Dream" - It's like Iron Maiden's Eddie is all ready for the revolution, but he's got to wade his way through all these intestines first. And we have a winner. Sweet.

All of these albums are worth having by the way.
