Coolest Album Cover Artwork

[char_da_harlot]

I Love Somewhere In Time.  I also liked the cover maxi single of "The trooper" A Union Jack in one hand and a stiff upper lip! CLASSIC.

For me Powerslave just pips Somewhere In Time at the post, but twas a tough decision!!

 

[Dr Cox]

For me Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son narrowly pips Powerlsave as the best Maiden album sleeve.

 

[thousand_suns]

For me A Matter of Life and Death will be my favourite, I think.

 

[seely]

A Matter Of Life And Death, though The X Factor is pretty aesome as well!!!!   

 

[Balduvian]

Brave New World, I love it 

 

[Deano]

How cool, revisiting old topics..... My vote goes to Somewhere in Time. Eddie is kick ass in it. The band is in it. There are so many hidden meanings and deep details in the entire spread one can, and does, spend long moments studying the cover.

I know Maiden Japan is just an EP, but that should probably go up there too. The simplicity of that cover is what lends to its strength.

Somewhere In Time does rock,but I like Sevent Son just due to its simplicity, but the fact that it tries to revisit most (all?) of the older Maiden albums in the ice on the back side of the cover.  And I really like the ice hole in the water.

 

[Eclipse]

Somewhere In Time For Me Too. Even though My favourite is a Real Dead One.

Ha!!  I didn't post when he was around, but I dig what you are saying!

 

[LooseCannon]

Hehehehe.  You were here for the Epic Prank, right?

 

[Wästed The Great]

I was reading the posts while it happened.  I started posting (again) just after you pulled off the masks.  I kept thinking 'how the heck is this happening' and then saw what happened and said 'ah.'

It was classic.

Somewhere In Time... no contest

 

[WarakaMaiden]

My favorite album cover artwork is probably Killers, to me it looks so awesome to me.

 

[Moonchild17]

hehehe....Somewhere in Time because I am a big Blade Runner fan and I like hidden messages in album covers. Powerslave is the second because I love the Egyptian themes and Brave New World the third.

 

[Black Thunder]

1st Powerslave
2nd  Somewhere in Time
3rd Iron Maiden

 

[Kuroda]

A Matter of Life and Death

 

[Maiden_Luke]

I would say A matter of life and death, got a poster of it on my door.

 

[Dead Boss]

Powerslave. I like the Egyptian theme.
And I don't like SIT, because of futuristic theme.

Result: Past beats future IMO.
