    Photek - Avalanche / Aviator (2011)

    As these 12 inch single releases show, the drum & bass prodigy Photek has made a strong choice when it comes to design since he came back with a vengeance into the dubstep trend. Having a new logotype for his name, and having all the records he releases following the exact same lay-out, with the same strange visual effect on photographies. The fact that those quite dull images are distorted in a way that confuses the senses makes them surprisingly catchy. Some might say it reflects Rupert Parkes sense of complicated and mind-blowing rhythm patterns.

    Stereo MC's - Emperor's Nightingale (2011)

    The Nightingale album from Stereo MC's was released out on !K7 records. This sleeve is far from the Hip-hop Techno-ish design Trevor Jackson did for their first and famous LP in 1989. It is also minimalistic, with this black & white origami, while the album is said to have them going back to the "joy of spontaneous creativity". Whatever this can mean.

    Pink Floyd - Atom Heart Mother (1970)

    The original album cover, designed by art collective Hipgnosis, shows a cow standing in a pasture with no text nor any other clue as to what might be on the record. This concept was the group's reaction to the psychedelic space rock imagery associated with Pink Floyd at the time of the album's release; the band wanted to explore all sorts of music without being limited to a particular image or style of performance. They thus requested that their new album had "something plain" on the cover, which ended up being the image of a cow. Thorgerson, inspired by Andy Warhol's famous "cow-wallpaper," has said that he simply drove out into a rural area near Potters Bar and photographed the first cow he saw. The cow's owner identified her name as "Lulubelle III". The liner notes in later CD editions give a recipe for Traditional Bedouin Wedding Feast on a card labelled "Breakfast Tips".

    INFLUENZA: Z internetů ... nejsem totiž člověk lenivý a když mě nějaké ty zvuky zaujmou, chci vidět také přebal, popř. znát okolnosti vzniku etc. (a vice versa). Je mi líto, že se dnes hudba v osobních/domácích přehrávačích konzumuje většinou sama o sobě, aniž by dotyčný posluchač viděl přebal. Ale co už.

    Kuedo - Severant (2011)

    Kuedo, a band name that is now the alias for Jamie Teasdale, aka Jamie Vex'd. This ultra-modern breaks & synths album released on Planet µ got an artwork where illustration and typography clearly relates to the visual design of the 1920', but with a modern twist. The texture of the artwork add a strong classic feel to it.

    Cut Copy - Zonoscope (2011)

    The album artwork uses an image by the late Japanese photomontage artist Tsunehisa Kimura titled Toshi Wa Sawayakana Asa Wo Mukaeru (meaning The City Welcomes a Fresh Morning), which depicts New York City being engulfed in a waterfall. "We saw this representing what the album is about, a tussle between synthetic and organic instruments. It isn't a destruction of the old world, more a creation of the new—it looks archaic, but at the same time it's timeless, referencing music from the past", Hoey said of the artwork.

    The Cranberries - Bury The Hatchet (1999)

    Bury the Hatchet is the fourth studio album by Irish rock band The Cranberries, released in 1999. The album is the first album released by the band after their first hiatus, which started 1996. Dolores had taken that time to heal from stress-induced diseases, and also had her first child, Taylor, during this period. The themes of the songs vary, from maternity and children, to divorce and child abuse. The album cover was designed by Storm Thorgerson.

    Fleet Foxes - Fleet Foxes (2008)

    The cover art is a detail of the 1559 painting Netherlandish Proverbs by Pieter Bruegel the Elder. Vocalist/guitarist Robin Pecknold notes that:
    "When you first see that painting it's very bucolic, but when you look closer there's all this really strange stuff going on, like dudes defecating coins into the river and people on fire, people carving a live sheep, this weird dude who looks like a tree root sitting around with a dog. There's all this really weird stuff going on. I liked that the first impression is that it's just pretty, but then you realize that the scene is this weird chaos. I like that you can't really take it for what it is, that your first impression of it is wrong."

    Bright Eyes - The People's Key (2011)

    n January 2011, it was announced that The People's Key had won the Best Art Vinyl award.
    “The basic idea for the artwork came from Conor (Oberst). He wanted it to look like a wall of fire, as this was one of the themes/images of the album. He left the execution up to me, but he said he wanted it to be visually striking. I used cut paper, as this was the technique I did for the first release I worked on for him--the "Every Day and Every Night" EP from 1999. I thought it would be fitting to return to the original style of artwork I did for Bright Eyes, since at that time the word was that it would be their final album.” (Zack Nipper, designer)

    The Gaslamp Killer - Breakthrough (2012)

    The Gaslamp Killer (born William Benjamin Bensussen) is an DJ based in Los Angeles, California. He has released two EPs and an album, Breakthrough, on Brainfeeder, a record label founded by Flying Lotus. While The Gaslamp Killer's earlier work was characterized by a heavy use of samples, on Breakthrough he chose to work with musicians to recreate the "vibe" of particular tracks.[11] Comparing his method to the way that Led Zeppelin and The Rolling Stones used blues music, he said, "I'm just trying to get ideas from world music, different rock 'n' roll records, library records, psychedelic shit, jazz – getting ideas from other records and trying to recreate them with musicians."

    Wilco - Yankee Hotol Foxtrot (2002)

    The cover of the album is a picture of Marina City in the band's adopted hometown of Chicago. The album was named after a series of letters in the phonetic alphabet that Tweedy had heard on the Irdial box set The Conet Project: Recordings of Shortwave Numbers Stations. On the fourth track of the album Phonetic Alphabet - Nato, a woman repeats the words "Yankee Hotel Foxtrot" numerous times; a clip from this Numbers Station transmission was placed in the Yankee Hotel Foxtrot song "Poor Places". Irdial sued Wilco for copyright infringement, and a settlement was reached out of court.

    The Shins - Port of Morrow (2012)

    The album is named after the port authority, Port of Morrow, in Oregon, with James Mercer noting, "There’s a sign by the side of the road that says “Port of Morrow” and I always just wondered about it, I guess. When writing that song it popped into my head and I was thinking of it as death, like what’s beyond the exit point, the “port of morrow”, the port into tomorrow? Regarding the album's artwork, artist Jacob Escobedo stated, "After working with James Mercer on Broken Bells, he came to me about this Shins album. He sent references of old Eastern European book covers with skulls and psychedelic faces. So I explored three different rounds of creative. Each time getting closer to what he was looking for. In the final round, I scanned a cross cut of a rock which formed that mountain and put this spirit made of feathers on top. He immediately loved it, but thought it needed a Hopi-inspired mask because he grew up in New Mexico. So he sent me all this great inspiration and it slowly evolved into that cover. If you look closely we’ve filled that smoke coming down the mountain with naked ladies at James’ request. [...] It’s pure Hopi psychedelic spookiness."

    David Bowie - Aladdin Sane (1973)

    As Bowie imagined him, Ziggy Stardust was an alien that came to Earth with a message of hope. In his home planet Ziggy was the ultimate rock star – high on promiscuous sex and drugs; destroyed by his own success. Ziggy’s otherworldliness would give Bowie license to create an androgynous, theatrical persona that set the template for many of the gender benders of the eighties. Aladdin Sane was both an extension of his Ziggy Stardust character and his “idea of rock-and-roll America”, Bowie later explained.
    The music and persona were created while Bowie toured the States, where he wanted “to be up on the stage performing my songs but on the other hand not really wanting to be on those buses with all those strange people… So Aladdin Sane was split down the middle.” This kind of "schizophrenia", as Bowie describes it, was conveyed on the cover by his makeup, where a lightning bolt represents the duality of mind, although he would later tell friends that the "lad insane" of the album's title track was inspired by his brother Terry, who had been diagnosed as a schizophrenic.
