On the IDM front, ep7 by autechre gets my vote, or maybe
the ventolin Eps. And GY!BE stuff is always great.

I really adore Toris Under the Pink and Choirgirl Hotel. CGH
has such a watery feel, whereas UtP feels like air--fairy
circles and everything. She looks so calm and serene; but
the CGH artwork is tragically beautiful!

My favorite UtP picture

...might sound strange, but I like the two remixes by afx
'artwork'.
it's anti-artwork actually.

I also like ep7 by ae, and for some reason, I like the one
from MyloveIlove by Bogdan too.

I bought my lemon jelly cd's because of the artwork,cos I
already had the album on cdr.

I'm crazy about the Agaetis Byrjun cover.
I want it as a huge poster!
Same for Bjork's Post: I want it on a poster!

tool's aenima certainly has an original cd case.

i had been shopping for aenima all day at the time, when i
found this interesting looking cd in some obscure store.
turned out to be aenima. that was a weird moment.

idm related i'd nominate ep7 or chiastic slide. the dr are
overrated, though

Good man, Designers Republic definitely did a sweet job with
the album cover. I guess I like it alot because it reminds
me of their Wipeout Design.
