Tash Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 1 Bright Eyes 2 Cults 3 Bon Iver 4 Washed Out 5 Kasabian 6 The Strokes 7 Fleet Foxes 8 Cut Copy 9 Coldplay 10 The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart About Mylo Xyloto: The graffiti motif of Coldplay's fifth album, Mylo Xyloto, was partly inspired by the band's attempts to paint their own studio in London. "What we really responded to about street art was the freedom of expression," said Chris Martin, "people turning ugly things into something beautiful". The cover was designed by the Tappin Gofton studio, which previously worked on Coldplay's X&Y cover. An exhibition featuring the Top 50 album sleeves will be seen in the UK, Europe and Australia in 2012. link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeremyy Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Mylo Xyloto is the best.. also Bon Iver's artwork looks weirdly good :thinking: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrk Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Cool! But I wonder why Kasabian are at number 5 :thinking: (I really don't like the Velociraptor artwork) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

42JTR Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Mylo Xyloto is the best.. also Bon Iver's artwork looks weirdly good :thinking: I had the same thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acquiesce Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 The Vaccines's album work was nice too ... El Camino by the Black keys is worth mentioning , no ? and the special edition of Velociraptor (Kasabian) was way better then the 'real' one.. also , if you have it on cd , the 'black' is terrible , I may sound a nerd here , but it's sot black , it grey :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
getithom Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Mylo Xyloto is the best.. also Bon Iver's artwork looks weirdly good :thinking: Well, duh. It's Bon Iver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brent Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 I've never been fond of the Bon Iver album cover actually. And Joel. Shut up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
getithom Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 I've never been fond of the Bon Iver album cover actually. And Joel. Shut up. I happen to love Justin Vernon. I was also being sarcastic, jeremyy. I wasn't trying to be a douche. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samuel_94 Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Thanks for posting. I like the Hard-Fi 'Killer Sounds' artwork. It's a great album too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiame Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 I didn't like Mylo Xyloto's cover. It looked like it was done by a high school studnet and it seemed contrived. Now I'm going to swirl some wine around and review other things that don't matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vinch Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 I agree that Bright eyes was the best, love their new album but i still really like both of MXs optional covers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samuel_94 Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 I didnt think Velociraptor was anything special artwork or music wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidB5 Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Bon Iver's art is ok, but I would rather listen to toothpaste boiling than his music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prospector Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 I wouldn't say Mylo Xyloto should be the number 1 , but at least a top 5. The Cults cover is boring, Kasabian's is avarege and I really don't like Angels' artwork. But Bon Iver, Fleet Foxes and Cut Copy's are amazing, really loved this 3.

Guest howyousawtheworld Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Kasabian's front cover was average, like their album which was yet more of the same drudgery which wets the pants of the one brain cell cretins that are the NME reviewers....and NME readers.
