Iconic album covers

I think that both Led Zeppelin I and Houses of The Holy album covers are more iconic and recognizable.
Life After Death was the first album I ever purchased (or had help b/c I wasn't 16 yet). I knew these songs before I ever knew Juicy.
This one was a tough one. I think this does indeed win for all Pink Floyd albums but The Wall is close. And the Division Bell cover is pretty awesome too.
As my poast shows, I think And Justice For All is clearly the more iconic and recognizable cover.
Did you get the actual vinyl?
Yeah, age certainly plays a part in all of this. Hell, I think Asia and Men At Work have iconic album covers.
This coming from the guy who chose ...and justice for all as an iconic Metallica cover. It's a great album, but at best it would be their 4th iconic behind the black album, master of puppets and kill 'em all.
No, I just got the double CD, back when music stores were a thing...at River Ridge Mall, of all places.
You're absolutely wrong on that. There's no other way to say it. And Justice For All is clearly - without a doubt - the most recognizable album cover to the masses. There is no debate here.
Alright, upon further thought, I'll say Master of Puppets is right there with And Justice For All but no way to the others.
Fair enough. I'm not even really a Metallica fan. The Master of Puppets album cover was the first (of any band) that came to my mind when I saw the thread title. I've never seen the Justice For All cover before.
@tarheel0910 can correct me if I'm wrong, but I was under the impression a band and/or artist could have more than one iconic cover.
There you go @gunslingerdick .
Yes, but the idea was to post one that a lot of people would know even if they were just a casual listener. Master of Puppets is a great example.
This is the correct answer.
So this isn't really an overall iconic cover, but if you know anything about Staind's history, you'll know why it would be considered their most iconic cover.

I know nothing about Staind and by the looks of it, I'm fortunate.
And are we really using Hark as a barometer on the Metallica thing? Dude's a yank. You know their opinions don't really count. Find me someone else and I'll give your argument a little merit.
