          | 
 ok, for metal bands, cd artwork it's an important thing.. at least for most of them.. this are my fave 3..how about yours?
 
 1. TOT - Velvet darkness...- most beautiful one
 
 
   
 2. Moonspell - Irreligious
 
 
   
 3. Macbeth - Romantic tragedy's crescendo

 There are too many for me to sort three out... but I liked Immortal's "At The Heart of Winter".

 A few of my favorites:
 
 Battlelore, "...Where the Shadows Lie
 
 
   
 
 And a couple of Moonsorrow covers, "V. Havettity"
 
 
   
 and "VOIMASTA JA KUNNIASTA" (this one is my background on my computer screen)
 
 
   
 
 And I couldn't get by without a Windir cover, "Arntor"

 I'm not a big fan of maroon, but the artwork of their latest album is awesome:
 
 
   
 I'd love to have a bigger version of it, i find it much more impressing if it's bigger, but anyways
   
 Cheers
 Philipp
