20 Awesome Unknown Cd Covers

August 12, 2009

I selected some samples of cd covers done by mostly unknown designers to upcoming artists, I called the selection unknown because you provably haven't seen most of these covers before. A great option to help you build up your portfolio is to look for upcoming artists that are also looking to grow in their industry, that's when the great mix of music and design comes along, you can get your work out there and get a musician happy at the same time.

The Placebo album is just the lyrics from the track "Special Needs" from their CD "Sleeping with Ghosts" set to mask the actual cover. 5 minutes. Depressing.

Hate to be that guy... but third from last isn't really anything. It's just the cover of Placebo's album Sleeping With Ghosts with the lyrics masked on top. If that's inspiration, well then gimme 5 min to make like 1000 more inspiring covers.

@kojii
Have you ever seen the Die Walküre hubcaps cover by Westminster? Google image search it. You're not the first one with that idea. Although their cover was supposed to be a joke; yours has a real artistic intention. I like them both :)
