Favorites of 2010: Covers

Tweet

2010 was a year of album covers that refused to conform; many appeared either intelligently well designed or obnoxiously ugly. The following covers would be of the former variety. In no way does this reflect our opinions on the music that these covers represent, we just found these striking enough to make this list.
