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"

Månegarm with Vargstenen
Amon Amarth with Fate Of Norns
Amorphis with Elegy
Die Apokalyptischen Reiter with All You Need Is Love
Rhapsody with Power Of The Dragonflame
there are more, but these came first upon my mind

Also the following:

Cradle Of Filth - Damnation And A Day
Celtic Frost - Monotheist (limited edition cover)
Akercocke - Words That Go Unspoken, Deeds That Go Undone
Immortal - At The Heart Of Winter
Opeth - Deliverance

Shining - Halmstad

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
