Title: Best heavy metal and rock album covers
Post by: Lord Chronos on March 01, 2015, 10:54:17 AM


Any rock or heavy metal fans here, if so whats your favourite album covers.

Here is one of my favorites, dragons, fire and Yngwie Malmsteen defending himself with the almighty power of his guitar. Particularly cheesy stuff from the 80's.

Bodybuilding related as Manowar has some very questionable album covers, involving bandmembers with abdominal development.

Guitars on it are just out of this world. There are many good (maiden)ones but this 2 pretty much top the list.
Ive seen maiden 6 times now.
One of the greatest live albums  " Live after death."
Martin Birch has also done Deep Purples Made in Japan. The 2 best rec. Live albums so they say..
I saw Maiden in Long beach for the Live after death show. First night
and years later with Dio and Motorhead.
High as fuck. Just fucking Awesome memories

Guitar solo's on that album in particular are superb

Maiden in Long beach, wow, never seen them live, would have loved to have been there!!

Like Dio too, there just isnt really any iconic bands like this around, and not putting on amazing live performances.

Funny things is I saw a documentary about Iron Maiden, is they still tour around the world selling out places but in new locations like Mexico, Brazil and Indonesia where they have massive followings. Kind of ironic they have hardly any following in their home country any more whilst the locals listen to plastic music instead.

I've always found their songs way heavier than the mainstream bullshit band Metallica has become.

"Forever, trust in who you are". Doesn't get more pussified than James Hetfield and that little annoying Danish dude, who probably is illegal. Still.

Any rock or heavy metal fans here, if so whats your favourite album covers.

Here is one of my favorites, dragons, fire and Yngwie Malmsteen defending himself with the almighty power of his guitar. Particularly cheesy stuff from the 80's.

Bodybuilding related as Manowar has some very questionable album covers, involving bandmembers with abdominal development.

This is true.

Rik Emmett of Triumph is an attractive man [no homo] and a much better guitarist and performer than any member of Rush.

This is one of the greatest live performances and displays of musical talent ever.

People like blood sausage too.
I dont know what it is but they have no sense of melodie and the rythm part is all over the place with the bass trying to outplay everyone. Its like they are always in competition with each other. Its not good music to listen too.
Im not even gonna touch the singing .
