La Galerie

A list that is dedicated to my favourite artwork from music releases. Some of these releases I have listened to and enjoy, while others I do not care for too much or haven't even had the opportunity to listen to in their entirety yet. That doesn't matter, of course, as the focus of this list is simply the cover art, not the musical content.

NOTE: Releases have been more-or-less organized according to their aesthetic and relevance (e.g. artwork portraying castles immersed in moonlight will be placed next to other similar artworks).
