Tomb flowers will bloom
With new tales of random serenity
And the fabric of dreams
Will always exist.
Like a soul in action
From the kingdom
Of the white on white idols
Here dreaming in new gowns.
You'll hear the riddle of prayers calling
In the lurking lipstick scenes
And a young man held to a flexible God
And pretty girls who scream.
The lost and found
Will lay with their still love
And lift your echoing heart
In a private paradise of dreams
And an air that falls apart.
- Bauhaus 1998
lifeform + lateral, you got my faves. amon's covers just beg for some sort of studio translation, and i love that autechre cover. bought the lp just for the bigger cover art and liners. i don't even know what that album's called, confield? don't like to listen to it.

Strange album cover from prog-rock superstars Yes:
Shellac's "Terraform," using a Chesley Bonestell painting:
the apples in stereo: the discovery of a world inside the moon
the sleeve for pulseprogramming : tulsa for one second opens to become a house -- very witty indeed.
cover ::
folded ::
for obvious reasons... The Alan Parsons Project: Gaudà(even the track list is archi: La Sagrada Familia, Passeig de Gracia...)
cover (pretty dull -like the music inside, actually- but with a pic of the staircase inside one of La Sagrada Familia spires):
more gaudinian architectural paraphernalia on the back cover:
of course...
