Title: Best GN'R album cover..
Post by: LIGuns on November 23, 2008, 09:10:52 PM
In order here are my 5 fav. GN'R album covers:

1-LIES: Cool premise, and some interesting headlines explaining the songs..Great old-glam pics.
2-Chinese Democracy: Maybe because it's new, but I like the picture...The booklet may make it         
                                    #1..Errors/typos N' all..But what booklet doen't have the wrong lyrics..
3-UYI I/II: The paintings pretty cool..Lyrics printed out in a basic, yet easy to read format.
                 Cool studio pics and a great band photo (w/ a porked up Dizzy).
4-AFD: Like the Cross more than the Robot Savior scene. Nothing fancy on the inside, but I like the   
            studio pics and the group photos.
5-Live Era: Old flyers..Shows where they came from and how they started out.
6-TSI: The Parental Advisory, Chock Full of Unsaviory Material, is the best part. Axl's sneakers 
           and some bland potos.
7-GH: Classic Logo. Anything on the inside?

I was so happy when I first saw the chinese democracy cover, it's just perfect. So that's gotta be my favourite! I also like lies and UYI.

I really like the Lies cover and how it was set up like a tabloid magazine.  It really showed that the band not only played kickass music but that they also had a sense of humor

The Appetite for Destruction cross cover.

WORST GNR (or any other band) album cover: The Spaghetti Incident.

I agree, spagetti looks like a can of "Chef Boy R D" dumped on a plate or something, doesn't even look like it could be good spagetti at all lol. Can't say it's not appropriate for album title though!!!

Gotta go with the pairing of the illusion albums.  Simple two color approaches.  One looks hot, the other cool.  They're just very striking to me.

My favourite would be the UYI covers. Im not much into art but really love them. The original AFD cover is on par with it.

TSI cover is so random and original, but lacks something.

The CD cover tells a story, I don't know what, but just looks as though there could be a back story to it.


 :peace:

Dunno....

Either the UYI covers or the AFD one

Chinese Democracy's is alright, but when i first saw it, i hated it, i thought it was really kinda bland and dull, had no real impact
