Just a quick peak at the options again for the peeps who are too lazy to flip the page

Wow I actually like all the album art this time! It's a tough choice, I'll try not to be biased toward tangerine dream. I really dig the art style of Atoll - Magiciens, so I'll vote for that. I kind of feel inspired to try a painting in that style now

Zeit's cover is exactly what I always wanted my first album cover to be, but it seriously fits that music. Love it

What no love for Osanna's strange skeleton like space whale?
Edit: at least in the comments - hadn't noticed they'd received two votes. Just goes to show how little I care about the actual 'tournament'

Hmmm... Not completely in love with any as I've been in the past. There are parts to most that I like (like the random pope in Plastic People) though. In the end it comes down to Zeit and Monolith. I'll go the big indian this time.

I have always appreciated the crazy intensity of Santana 3 but it is Kansas' Monolith that moves me to the most, what with my environmentalist tendencies and predilection towards almost all things Native American. Trivia: Did you know that the state, and hence the band, got its name from a Native American tribe, the Kansa? And that the name means 'people of the south wind?'

Like those Atoll ones. Musicien - Magiciens gets my vote. Zeit and Monolith are cool too.

Some excellent choices, went with Kansas here but plenty of others look excellent.
As for the music, I don't think I've heard any of them.

It has to be Atoll - Musicien - Magiciens for me. The second i saw it posted there (even though i've never seen it before), i knew i'd prolly vote for it. I'll check out the band just for those artworks
Love 'em all except the Death May Be.. and the 10cc one.

Some great picks here David, I really like them all in one way or another. I went with Zeit just over Kansas.

The internal picture of Zeit is better than the front
