Many Ratos de Porão covers are among my favourites:Crucificados pelo sistema, a punk classic: Brasil, the best, a portrait of (sadly) the worst part of my country: Feijoada acidente?, a tribute to Guns'n'Roses??? This is (barely) how feijoada look like. Put some rice above it and... Yummy!

Spinal Tap - Smell the Glove. Seriously tho... here's some i can think of at the moment..
Mercyful Fate - Dont Break the Oath / 9 King Diamond - Them Voivod - RRRoooaaarrr Kreator - Pleasure To Kill Destruction - Infernal Overkill Celtic Frost - To Mega Therion (freaked my parents out) Slayer - Hell Awaits Exorcist - Nightmare Theatre (ZOMBIES!! everyone loves zombies!) Lard - Pure Chewing Satisfaction (the entire booklet) But the best album cover i've ever seen was actually never released as intented. It was the original banned cover for Exodus - Pleasures of the Flesh. Ads prior to the album's release had the original art on them, but sadly when the record came out, it was just a photo of the band at a bar with skulls in front of 'em. The original artwork later surfaced (in a mangled form, and cropped out of shape) on the limited edition picture disc version of the album. I have that cover around here somewhere, i think. Not scanned, tho.

Yeah, I have that ad somewhere in my scrapbook man! Much cooler than the lame photo on the actual cover! I never understood why they banned it anyhow? I mean, it wasn't that bad. I may have to scan that pic now, as it's a good size and I need to make a cover of my vinyl rip of that particular record. If I do, I'll post it here. Emlyn, you like Loop? Very cool! I was more than mildly obsessed with Robert Hampson's guitar playing throughout the better part of the 1990s, both with Loop and his more experimental Main. Great stuff! I still haven't managed to get my grubbies on a copy of "Duel" yet though... gotta keep a closer eye on eBay.
