Maybe we need "ATRL's 100 Best Covers of All Time"

I am a True Blue album cover LOYALIST therefore I find this appalling 

 

Also Lemonade is a literal screen grab from the visual? I don't even think Bey would agree w this; the whole purpose was to make it about the visual/music as a packaged deal. The cover itself is arbitrary, same with ST

El Mal Querer should be top 5.

Rubbish list. Utter rubbish.

Circus album cover should be number 1. Stop disrespecting britney

Posted

i've really never liked that joy divison cover

Posted

I agree w/ SZA's album cover. Album meh, her social media tragic, but the cover amazing.

Posted

You can just tell they feel the need to include Taylor on every list because there's no way a single album cover of hers should crack a top 100 list.

I find it amusing how even a list of covers is centered around the anglosphere. It's not like the language barriers have any impact on this. 

 

And it's not even a good list at all. What's the aesthetic worth of Igor's cover or this **** below

#15 Beyoncé, Lemonade

I would've chosen Dangerously in love but this is good too

Some make perfect sense, some don't. 

 

Also, why is Lemonade there? It's not even Bey's best cover, let alone of all time.

The Velvet Rope instead of Control is…interesting. No Madonna is just silly. She’s got options for days.

Not Lemonade :rip:

FKA twigs' LP1 deserved top 20 at least, such a stunning cover. I discovered her just because I saw that cover and thought I had to listen to the album because of such stunning artwork. Became a fan afterwards.

Broke With Expensive Taste deserves a spot
