➤ Simple Guidelines
➧1. Include the original album name, author and year of release. If you do not know some of the required information, state that in either the title or top-level comment e.g. [Album Name - Author/s Name, Unknown Year]. The reason we ask for this information is that you can only search on the content of post titles, not comments.
➧2. No low-effort/low-quality posts. Posts made to c/albumartporn are expected to be of high quality and have serious effort put behind them. The album cover should be clean, not have any urls/website watermarks in them.
➧3. Be Original
➧4. Be respectful. Harassment, abuse, name calling, and/or threats of any kind is not tolerated here. Any content, whether an image or a comment, that includes any kind of bigoted language or hate speech will be met with a permanent ban.
➧5. No off-topic Content Never post anything that is off-topic (i.e. not album art) or that contains gory material.
➧6. No spam or reposts. Do not submit more than one of the same post/comment on this community or across multiple communities. In addition, please wait at least 3 months before reposting an image that has already been posted to c/albumartporn, and do not repost from the top of all time.
➧7. No advertisement or self-promotion. Do not use this subreddit to advertise or self-promote. This includes (but is not limited to) websites, articles, blog posts, and brands.
➧8. No memes, gifs, videos, audios. Just album covers
➧9. Tag NSFW Posts · Nudity: Obvious, implied or strategically covered · Content that is “sexually explicit” · Gore, both human and non-human.
➠Feel free to report any content that does not respect these rules.

This album for sure has the best art booklet of any CD I've ever own.
Here I go listening to Tool again.
btw this cover is made by Alex Grey if anyone want to see more of his art
Have you seen the booklet? I guess you have.
For anyone else who hasn't,
The booklet is about 8 clear plastic pages with layers, so as you open each page it shows a lower layer.
It's really freakin cool.
Aw yeah it really is amazing! Alex Grey and Tool go together perfectly
Same artist who did the art work for 'DMT: the spirt molecule' right ?
Yes it is! According to a friend who has experience with DMT Alex Grey visualizes the experience perfectly
My friend would like to try it some time, but has no idea where to get it or how to make sure it's the real deal.
Such a big fan of Alex Grey's work. Highly recommend checking out his book, Net of Being
As a complete album, Lateralus is one of my favourite things to listen to. It's kind of amazing.
Definitely, I'm a big fan of albums that just flow as one.
