Power Metal bands have the best album covers, no contest

This isn’t even a debate. They have the best album covers.
Stratovarius - Nemesis
What isn’t to like here? Let’s see what we have. There is a nude, sword-wielding angel flying above an apocalyptic backdrop with futuristic spaceships dogfighting in the background amid nuclear detonations. It is pretty much one giant metal-gasm onto an album cover.
Helloween - Better than Raw
This one is a little more simple. We have a witch brewing up a cauldron with the help of her many pumpkin-headed demons. Of course the witch is wearing only lingerie...oh, and it looks like a pumpkin demon fell in her cauldron. Artistic perfection.
Sabaton - Heroes
Not sure what else really need to be said here. Scruffy will assume that that is Captain America punching a Nazi so hard that his head seems to be leaving his body. All of that with a B52 bomber on fire, diving into the earth.
Gloryhammer - Space 1992
Who doesn’t like skeleton chaos wizards set in the futuristic landscape of 1992?! That guy on the cover would probably be Scruffy’s character in a riveting Dungeons and Dragons game. His name would be something like “Blort” or maybe “Clem”. Truly soul-shaking in his intensity.
And this is just scratching the surface.
Anyone want to argue against Scruffy’s stance that power metal has the greatest album covers of all time? Go ahead. It will be futile.

If you want to see T&A, either get a GF or go on pornhub.
This is about art.
And power metal album covers are the very definition of artwork.
That album you posted looks like a photo that a nerd and his sister would take at some photoshop in the mall.
Scruffy is surprised their “furbaby” cat isn’t in the picture with them.

They were on my list, but I couldn’t find ones I could post on my phone.
The only ones I could find had blatant nudity too.

Needless to say, the beast was stunned.
A whip-crack went his whippy tail,
And the beast was done.
He asked us, "Be you angels?"
And we said, "Nay. We are but men."

Powerwolf - Blessed and Possessed
I have yet to see anything as righteous as the power metal album covers.

They all seem extremely corny to me.
