I have a few here, but a two of them will require a good amount of censoring so I'll post those after I'm done with them. The first is Jethro Tull's Thick as a Brick. It's a full on newspaper:

all Radiohead art ever, empirically the greatest band of all-time

it's funny to think people got all bent out of shape over the beatles, not knowing the genius that was to come, anything to hint at in revolver or abbey road is delivered 100 million times better and more profound with radiohead

One more! My very favorite one I own is Menomena's Friend or Foe. (I really hope I caught all the things that would require censorship)

It's not really my favorite, but the packaging is really cool. I'm partial to Hissing Fauna, Are You the Destroyer? Skeletal Lamping is a bit too disjointed for me.

This one is really cool too. I'm a sucker for colored vinyl.

Im aware its not the popular opinion but I love how scattered and eclectic Skeletal Lamping is

i get why people wouldnt like it but to me its basically just constant hooks, he probably couldve made 50 songs out of the tracks on this album but I love the sort of sound collage approach to it

Sgt. Pepper, and Darkside of the Moon need a mention.
Sgt. Pepper btw more or less invented the notion of an Album Cover proper.

Having said that I wish to God this was a real cover...I would buy it and frame it!!!

This one is also really cool. I've got one more myself I think. Fantomas's Suspended Animation. It's a calendar for April 2005, and there's a song for each date.

Nice! I actually think the only Radiohead I own a physical copy of is Kid A, but I do love them. (I suppose I also own Thom Yorke's The Eraser) I have a decent number of CDs because I like to listen to my music that way in the car. My phone's navigation interrupting all the time makes it too annoying to play stuff from there.

B'hahah, I had my phone do that the other day but with just a trip tracker. I was just chillin eating my lunch on a lunch break, which I take a walk for, and just barked out at me 'Lost signal' or w/e. LOL irl, Paranoid Andriod.

Also, I say, I think I ordered it...because I did on Amazon last night, but it got removed...or something.
So, I tried another option...so, I waiting on the shipped notification.

It will be fun to have some new Car music. Right now all I have is two The Clash mix discs and like Beatsie Boys album.

We used to have a sustained used music shop scene in this town, but right now we don't.

I don't like the album much but the only one I own that really stands out is a Pet Sounds deluxe edition that comes in a kind of soft almost velvet case. Public Image Ltd's Metal Box is cool too, in a metal tin. I couldn't get into the music though

Ya, Pet Sounds isn't bad....but IMO it is overrated.
I actually find it kinda depressing.

I don't see why it is held up against Sgt. Pepper.
I kinda do production-wise, but even then it's apples and oranges.

Worth pointing out that while the Packaging isnt usually that elaborate, many of Montreal have cool album art from that same artist
