no quotes!

i think you mixed the worst and best album covers up.

That Mark Barrage one has made me go blind.

there sure is some shit covers there....

what happened to beaches?

2008's indiest album covers!

I liked the Beaches one, though.

aww yeah... mark barrage!!

There's some brilliant stuff there. Fuck up, you sooks!

It was indeed a complacent year.

Ghosts of Television - Furthest Village from the Sun

ii - Landlakes

The Fab Diamonds and Clue To Kalo covers are indeed rad.

hmmm

Mistletone are gonna kick you in the shins, Danny.

the iron on one is pretty good. and grand salvo.

Some shockers in there IMHO

is this some kind of joke? those covers are crap. except my disco.

Holly Throsby and Guy Blackman's are as shit as diarrhea

Dead China Doll - s/t

iron on, grand salvo, my disco are the good ones

right on, shaun.

The Iron On one is pretty rad.

all the comments are wrong, the list in the article is THE DEFINITIVE best albums list, as tested by SCIENTISTS and proven with MATHS!

there is no talk to be had on this, its nothing to do with opinions or the like, quite simply anything on this list, just isn't the best (or the worst, unless its on the other list)

that one's probably my favourite. it's tales from the colony room by spartak.

Stop posting shitty pictures.

guy blackman is the face of the year!

only just beat wes carr.

the Spartak one looks much better in the crystal case

these all blow. especially My Disco, fuck.

Beaches and Songs ones are alright though.

i guess if you put a album cover in the thread part, it'll seem like part of the original list!

farkin sweet list, spodsational

fab diamonds on both? capitulation!

I own the Beaches album and the film soundtrack.

Does anyone else keep clicking on back to articles thinking it is back to discussions?

i do, then i realise the front page is sorta interesting, so it can't be discussions.

Um.. Ooga Boogas?

i say ''boooo''

how did you miss Oliver Mann?

Could that Josh Pyke cover look anything more like Thom Yorke's Eraser?

Guy Blackman? Really?

how did you miss Oliver Mann?

Cause it's shit?

incorrect poprocks.

Could that Josh Pyke cover look anything more like Thom Yorke's Eraser?

agreed. Also - Josh Pyke - WTF? guy is so boring. has no place on M&N anyway : )

Crayon Fields are disqualified because the cover is for a 7 inch and not an album.

Superfrenz is the best by far. wake up to yourselves, idiots!

I like most of these. Good cover art for me is simple, yet striking. I also appreciate when it's not a pastiche of cover art from a previous era, which unfortunately applies to some of the above.

Should have let Shaun pick!

i know its musical merits meet with some opposing views around here, but the cover is lovely.

I agree, monty. Not a fan of the album but the cover is very Aubrey Beardsley-esque.

It would have been nice to see some reasoning behind those choices. A few pretty weak sleeves in there i reckon.

The Ohana and ii sleeves are both better than most in that list. I know there will always be disagreement on these things but that why it would be nice to see why those were selected.

Could someone post a copy of my last album cover? Social conventions don't allow me to do it myself...

Here is Default Jamerson's last album cover, by request of Default Jamerson.

Ah crap!

Also (and thanks to shaun/runoutgroove for the mentions) here's a better image of the ii Landlakes cover:

Fabulous Diamonds was probably the most iconic Australian album cover for me last year.

i think that you am i cover is more kay neilsen
