I knew that if I didn't post this, you would eventually post this. I didn't realize you would be that quick though. Still, props.
That is a good fucking album, too. For those interested, it is called "Honeymoon".

I've met the girl in the fur hat. She's friends with a bunch of my friends who hang out Anthony Gonzales.

Actually I really like those Bedhead covers and think they're pretty eye-catching as opposed to some of the gaudy shit people do (see: Black Moth Super Rainbow artwork, the atrocity that is Mika's Life In Cartoon Motion)
How has no one mentioned Spiritualized yet? Though I guess that's not so much artwork as amazing and incredibly creative album packaging.

Speaking of Black Moth Super Rainbow and completely awesome.
Edit: I see that this was posted before but it's unceremoniously hidden behind a link. :(

meh, i actually like that Mika cover. maybe it's the kid in me - i was hyperactive with certain colours as a child.
weirdly, another one i really like is this:
i dunno what it is about it, but it's such a grim looking cover, and yet reflects the mood of the album so well. it's also one of the best melodic rock albums of the 90s, and definitely worth checking out if you haven't heard it.
