Melophobia's cover will never leave my mind, the abrasive face with the stripes in the background resembling a elongated distorted piano, its just perfect for the title, it's probably my favorite album cover of all time. If it wasn't for me discovering the album as a teen I don't think I'd be into abstract art the way I am today

I never picked up on it looking like a piano. Thank you for pointing that out.

the melophobia album cover has not left my mind since I discovered it's an sculpture and not a painting

TMIP is my favorite album cover. I like its colors and its meaning.

My brother used to have this poster on his wall with the self-titled album's cover. Back when it came out I was like 7-8 and he got the poster I always found the image very striking. The almost intestinal piping of the skull, the blotched colors and the name "Cage the Elephant" but then I didn't listen to the album for like 10-11 years. But once I did the sound of the album finally brought sense to the cover art. A very striking image from my childhood became very striking music from my early adulthood. So yeah that's gotta be my favorite CTE album cover. There's just something about it that looks exactly like the album sounds. Maybe it's the grittiness and messiness of it combining into something artistic and cool. Just love it.

Melophobia. It's iconic. I really like all the others besides Tell Me I'm Pretty.

level 1

I think it's the Thank You Happy Birthday vinyl cover cause it's very sick or TMIP because of the personal thought Matt put into it

level 2

I've never heard about TMIP album cover back story. Fill me in lol

level 1

Melophobia is the best imo

level 1

Tell Me I'm Pretty. The saturation and hues are kind of mesmerizing, and the woman on there always makes me think of Sweetie Little Jean.

level 1

TMIP for sure is my favorite!

I don't really care for much of their artwork. I wish they had a cool band logo so I could tattoo it on my face.
