As far as album art describes the enclosed music the most adaquately goes, I would have to say Autechre have had the best art, behind them comes Aphex(mostly the later covers, I'll never be able to see his visage again without being assualted by LSD memories), BoC, Phonem's(Hydro Electric at least) and Amon Tobins. Go buy Phonem's Hydro Electric.!!! On Thu, 14 Jun 2001, Anig Browl wrote:
