I think the Muse cover is great and deserved to win

There's some really bad choices in their top 50, although they have managed to highlight some good ones as well. Very hit and miss list.

Muse picture is a bit average compared to the other two!

Agreed. Seeing it in the line up with Muse and Fever Ray's efforts makes it stand out even more to me.

EDIT: Sounds Of The Universe by Depeche Mode finished 10th. Seriously...

The Fever Ray one isn't done justice by that shot, it's really very very good.

Great result for the Manics and for the amazing cover for Journal. Second is no disgrace and despite all the bans ans plain cover that was slapped on the cd it's done brilliantly. WELL DONE JENNY & THE MANICS XXX

All Muse artwork is pretty bad, the latest cover more so.

Yeah, artwork for Muse has never really interested me to be honest.

I actually quite like the cover of Showbiz, but aside from that their artwork isn't very inspiring
