Best Album Covers

Jay Z and Kanye West: Watch the Throne 
This cover was designed by Riccardo Tisci, creative director of French fashion house Givenchy. It is unique and can be recognised everywhere, and the fact there is no writing on the album cover shows arrogance, perhaps suggesting that the album will be so successful that there is no need for any writing. The gold cover says one thing: "I'm rich".


The Velvet Underground: The Velvet Underground and Nico
This album cover was designed by famous artist Andy Warhol. It is a weird choice of object for an album cover. Like "Watch the Throne", it can be recognised very easily and is now synonymous with the Velvet Underground.
