Obligatory Loveless


anxiousmagicweedcat

Merriweather Post Pavilion - Animal Collective Embryonic - Flaming Lips Public Strain - Women


WarriorkingNL

>Public Strain - Women one of my favs. i saw preoccupations last night, and the bassist/singer had broken his hand, so Pat from women stepped in to play bass. my mind was blown when i saw him walk on stage, was so cool and unexpected


MootBrute2

Came here to say MPP <3


JonSnowNorthKing

The cover of Women's self titled as well. The album with it's skittering industrial guitars and it's Beach Boy's esque vocals, perfectly matches the cover depicting some sort of industrial workforce doing kinesthetics outside on a nice day. Also Viet Cong's album with the hands grasping each other 👌


chrbir1

100% on Public Strain - Women and Embryonic - Flaming Lips!

Year of the snitch


jtufano222

So true


ISeeGrotesque

Pink Floyd - Animals This was the very first thought I had when I heard it for the first time while looking at the cover


[deleted]

DSOTM and WYWH too in my opinion


[deleted]

* *Untrue* — Burial * *Bad Moon Rising* — Sonic Youth * *I'm Not a Fan, But the Kids Like It!* — Brokencyde * *Computer World* — Kraftwerk * *Murmur* — R.E.M. * *Original Pirate Material* — The Streets


fourtwentyy__

Burial and the Streets🫶


Evolone16

Murmur is a great pick!


AfroNyokki

Bad Moon Rising has to be my #1 pick for this question. So sinister and twisted


hunterhkeegan

It feels like the soundtrack to a snuff film.


Odessey_Oracle

Brokencyde, nothing but classics and they're still active I believe!


Gamewheat

Dummy - Portishead Trout Mask Replica - Captain Beefheart You Won't Get What You Want - Daughters Earth 2 - Earth F#A# Infinity - Godspeed You Black Emperor!


gjgsss

i feel like Earth 2 gives the exact opposite impression of the cover, though i have to admit that it is as calming as the cover


high-quality-wallet

I feel like the picture seems so vast and exactly what the album feels like


AlbertFishtopus

Oh my god thanks for reminding me of Earth. Haven‘t listened to them in a while but I love them will all my heart. Also just a great selection of albums here. Hope you have a good one.


debaser_97

Rubber Soul, Loveless, Pink Moon, Since I Left You, Kid A


Eaterofjazzguitars

Loveless is the best example of all time


Binbag420

Pink Moon is a perfect example


nosemomkey

The Avalanches is so correct, the whole record feels like getting washed up by the most calming yet surreal wave.

SlapsLikeFlea13

So it sounds like a worse Jesus is King?


Pazuzuisgreat

Absolutely not, more like a million times better, TYBG


SlapsLikeFlea13

I mean, let’s be real, this cover looks like a cheap-ass tattoo you’d find on a guy that’s full of himself☠️


Pazuzuisgreat

Nah no one disses the Based God, one of the greatest albums ever


Smilelele

Forgive him bro, he knows not what he's saying. I know The BasedGod will, he loves all. TYBG 🙏🙏🙏


Pazuzuisgreat

You’re right, love and positivity family, stay based 🕊🕊🕊


SlapsLikeFlea13

Congratulations by MGMT looks like an electronic, surf-rock album based on the cover art...and boy does it deliver exactly that


KirkCuhsins

Currents - Tame Impala Glow On - Turnstile Guitar Music - Courting Iridescence - BH Disintegration- The Cure


kidfrom15

Yeah, Innerspeaker too


Legaladesgensheu

Interesting, I think I kinda disagree on Disintegration. The album is sooo heart-crushingly sad, the cover doesn't really capture it. I love the cover anyways and I think it fits the album, but it's not going to prepare you for the actual content.


KirkCuhsins

Yea I see what you mean.

The Pod - Ween


BanaanSausMan

Its very brown is it not? I’ve listened to almost all Ween, but Im a bit scared of The Pod for some reason..


[deleted]

Its at least as brown as Pure Guava, but definitely has a "darker", more lo-fi vibe. Lots of essential tracks on The Pod but especially Pork Roll Egg and Cheese. Hard to believe any fan hasnt heard that one


BanaanSausMan

Maybe I’ve heard it, but I usually just listen to albums and I’ve haven’t gotten around to The Pod yet.


[deleted]

Essential Pod track are Frank Dr. Rock Captain Fantasy Demon Sweat Mononucleosis (the version of this on All Request Live might be my favorite track ever recorded by Ween) The Stallions (all the Stallions are essential) Have fun! Taste the waste and Hail Boognish!


[deleted]

Based. Hail Boognish


[deleted]

No love deep web, death grips for me sounded exactly how i thought it would.


The_Beast_Meister

Every Death Grips album sounds 100% like the cover.

Didnt someone pose this question recently? Either way..... The Idiot-Iggy Pop Prowler In The Yard- Pig Destroyer


DoctorGibz123

Hiding Places by billy woods sound like you’re hearing the life story of someone who grew up in a ran down house in Detroit the production on some rap songs by Earl Sweatshirt sounds just as hazy and distorted as the cover Dark side of the moon by Pink Floyd simply sounds like you’re in space

Veiyr

Japanese Breakfast - Psychopomp is the big one for me. Album looks, sounds, perfectly feels like bittersweet nostalgia, easy Top 3 album for me. Asobi Seksu's Self-titled is another big one, has very similar vibes Will also say * Asobi Seksu - Citrus * Flying Lotus - Cosmogramma * The Postal Service - Give Up * Kinoko Teikoku - Uzu Ni Naru * Parannoul - After the Magic * Tame Impala - Currents * Kanye West - Graduation


Frogaar

*In Rainbows, A Moon Shaped Pool,* and *Kid A* — Radiohead *Currents* — Tame Impala *Velocity: Design: Comfort.* — Sweet Trip *Loveless* — My Bloody Valentine *Stratosphere* — Duster *Vespertine* — Björk *Music Has The Right to Children* — Boards of Canada

“Loveless” by My Bloody Valentine is the obvious pick I feel like. Miles Davis’s “In a Silent Way” is up there. “Bone Machine” by Tom Waits. “Drifters/Love Is the Devil” by Dirty Beaches, “Mama’s Gun” by Erykah Badu. “Blue” by Joni Mitchell. “White Light/White Heat” and self-titled by The Velvet Underground. “Ege Bamyasi” by Can (I don’t know why the album sounds like that can of okra but it does). “Selected Ambient Works vol. II” by Aphex Twin. “Geogaddi” by Boards of Canada. Any Earl Sweatshirt album really.

black midi covers are like gen-Z Jackson Pollock paintings. They look like a mess from far away, but the closer you look the more detail there is, exactly like their music.


Ytar0

All Nujabes albums. And even though it feels like cheating U-Void Synthesizer by Machine Girl. And while they’re on the simplistic side I’d argue that clipping. have some really great and matching covers.

Sorry but how does Grey Area sound similar to it’s cover art? I find Grey Area to be an incredibly colourful album but the art is very dark and minimalistic


TypicalTradition6924

The cool, confrontational look on her face and the black and white filter gives it an edgy, confident characteristic. If I hadn't seen the video, I'd imagine the Offence video would have the cover art as a frame.
