warren t claim Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Didn't the Art of Noise have a trashed Commer van on an album cover??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reallyloud Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Swervedriver Ash Ok Go The stuff below I've not heard so don't judge me.... Throbbing gristle Over Easy Disco Inferno I've got a scandinavian album at my folks house of some Bill haley look alikes in a scrapyard. They're on top of a Renault 4, with some sixties stuff in the back ground. The music is unlistenable though. The first shoegazing Verve album has a burning Citroen GSA - its in the gatefold. binhoker668 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 My Volvo's been on an album cover. It's was for a band from Timperley that's signed to an indie label in California.Twas a pity their designer chose the most unintelligible typeface available. It was that wanky brush script that everyone stopped using in 1996.The rear cover was a photo of mine as well.I'll see if I can dig it out.

carlo Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 Fulvia Coupe I think?I read an interview with the fairly famous bloke who designed this cover (have forgotten his name). It was a Flavia Coupe and Mr Gabriel was quite taken with it although he didn't have much interest in cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michiel Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 Wiki says: This album is often referred to as Car, referring to the album cover by Hipgnosis. The car was a Lancia Flavia owned by Storm Thorgerson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Lobster Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 Off on a slight tangent but the previous owner told me that my R4 had been used in a Robbie Williams video.
