I'm interested to know...
I've decided that COD is mine, I just love those brussel sprouts and rubber ducks...
Plus the bizarre juxtaposition idea in the whole thing is fantastic; Oranges and a cow... and the grand mountains in the background...
It may not be my favorite album but it's definately my favorite "Mackie job" for them.
So what about the rest of you? All of their visuals are amazing, the website has become an incredible spectacle... I haven't seen the book yet...
album art?!?!!?
I don't know. Houdini maybe. And by default Electroretard since I imagine it's the same Dennis the Menacesque little boy up to shenanigans.
I think Stoner Witch has great artwork and pictures.
I'm not sure if Mackie did this or not.
I think the picture of Buzz with that stoned look is awesome.
The X-ray of the Mood Ring, the fish, the whole release makes me happy.
HAT, Stag, Stoner Witch and Colossuss are my favourite "Mackies"
But I love em all!
Pigs.
LYSOL
and POTRE on vinyl
but the trilogy on vinyl seems to be the greatest, but I don't have it :(
in no particular order...
Bullhead, HAT, and does Never Breathe What You Can't See count? i love the artwork to that.

Hm, it does contain an album. And if you consider all that paperwork around it album art, it's by far their best.
I liked CoD's cover.
I kinda like the Newdini -

I actually kind of like that too.
I can't decide on what my overall favourite is though.
I always though the big vinyl honky with the black on black embossing was kinda the ultimate "black" album. Gotta go with Lysol tho.' No cover has ever so closely mirrored what the record sounds like imo.
its true, when i hear that low chanting and the pounding of the drums
i picture 10,000 braves riding their stallions into battle on the open plains
of a new land
lysol, simplistic and revealing.
fav artwork: Stoner witch, hence the ink 8)
I was wondering about the Lysol artwork the other day. The Beach Boys had a more stylised version of it as their Brother Records label logo back in the late '60s and bootleggers seem fond of using the exact same picture that is on Lysol for the covers of Beach Boys CDs. Anyone know where the picture came from?
Revel in the fruit basket that is Bullhead. Mmmm......pineapple.

Pink donkeys always make me chuckle :P
