Saville, yo!
I'd argue that Unknown Pleasures is the apex of all modern album covers since it encompasses simplicity, abstraction and distillation. Postmodernism scoffs at all three of those ideals.

For the most famous postmodern album covers something like London Calling where the appropriated the so-called King of Rock and Roll to announce their own smashing of Rock and Roll conventions, or something even earlier like Warhol's Velvet Underground cover.

But it's a classic cover which might just be the most instantly recognizable in the last 40 years or so, more for the design than the band themselves.

Saw what you will about the band after this release, but I still find the cover and music striking....

the artwork for “go to heaven” is lacking. kreutzman looks like he belongs on a registry for sex offenders.
