The next cover is pretty simple, but I find it quite captivating. I guess it's due to the hand-drawn design. It is the album The Eraser by Thom Yorke.

Dept - Equilibri: I don't have much to say about this one. It's just beautiful. That's all.

Another creative art is from the album Words Untold & Dreams Unlived by Serenity: And let's not forget Stand Up And Fight by Turisas, a masterly cover art that nicely reflects the story within the songs of that album:

One of the members found him (they were living together) and before calling the police bought a disposable camera and took a picture of the scene. This is that picture
