I know it´s hard to choose but what is your favourite StratovariuS CD-cover ever and why??

First: Where's Fourth Dimension?

Okey, Fourth Dimension has not my favourite cover...
I like Fright Night, Visions, Destiny and Infinite most.
Infinite is done with computer and I don't respect computer-art so much.
Visions is cool, but strange, too strange.
Fright Night and Destiny have both amazing atmosphere.
But maybe I like Destiny's colours more.
And made with oil paintings!
So I must say Destiny.

I like VISIONS best......my second is 14 DIAMONDS, a rare CD, and my third is VISIONS OF DESTINY, a bootleg.
I'll post 14 Diamonds later.
TWILIGHT TIME cover is my second fav Studio album......

And, I like Hymn to Life&WFTD, too.

Sorry about this 4th Dimension thing.
I really forgot it. Damn!

Twilight Legionnaire · Sat Oct 30, 2004 6:38 pm

Infinite and Destiny are my favorite covers. Followed closely by Elements Pt. II

Infinite is my favorite, just got something i can't explain....

Dreamspace, Episode, Visions, Destiny... the Derek Riggs covers suck, imo...

Equinox · Post by **Equinox** » Sat Oct 30, 2004 7:40 pm

I like Elements part 1 and 2......its just such good contrats btw then.......and the colors......
But i think Infinte is pretty cool too, and i was checking Fright Night cover and..........the name Thomas lion (or whatever) apeard on the grave.......Whos that?

Visions, I just love it! If I had to pick another one I would choose Infinite.

Elements Part II for me, it just has a certain charm about it.

i choose Destiny i'm not quite sure what has this cover , but i just simple love it , the secod is visions, but for me the Destiny cover has somethin' that id on't know how to describe it !!!!

Elements Part II. But it was really hard to decide. Fright Night, Visions, Destiny are very good as well. And of course the others too.

It was hard to choose between Infinite and Elements 1.

I also love the Million Light Years single!! It was my desktop picture for years (now I have E1 calendar.)

MaFiaBoY · Post by **MaFiaBoY** » Mon Nov 01, 2004 12:48 am

Yeah, it's wonderful as a desktop picture, I have it since I bought the single, somethnig like 2 months.

stratohawk · Post by **stratohawk** » Mon Nov 01, 2004 5:00 pm

well, my favourite cover is "Fourth Dimension", so it's a pitty that you didnt mention in in your poll...

And I think that Derek Riggs' work for Stratovarius should have ENDED AFTER Infinite-Album, which is great. But Intermission, the Elements and the new singles really suck!!!

Fire-Lily and Autumn-Lily don't suck imho.

For me is Destiny. If we listen the music Destiny and see the cover: we can have the feeling of that guy in the cover who is screeming.

Very good

Electric Eye · Post by **Electric Eye** » Tue Nov 02, 2004 3:25 pm

Set of Elemnts - it's the best Derek Riggs works ever, great idea of presenting four elements, magnificient painting. Chosing one, I'd point at part one, but both makes great and ideal pair.

You're right, but these aren't album covers; I think they were on the two bonus-CDs of the Elements-packages. All the other stuff (the covers except Infinite and maybe Million lightyears away) appears very, very artificial. I don't understand why they didn't follow their way to change the cover artist after one or two albums...

Toldo · Post by **Toldo** » Tue Nov 02, 2004 9:49 pm

I think the best is the Visions Cover
My doubt was between Visions and Infinite, but i forgott the chose ones

But i vote in Visions anyway

If they'll have a new album, then they can change, if most pf the people don't like Derek's paintings. I like his works, but if you want to change, then vote John Avon. He is the Jens Johansson in Paintings.

visions and infinte for me.

MaFiaBoY · Post by **MaFiaBoY** » Thu Nov 04, 2004 12:13 pm

John Avon ? He did paintings for Magic : The Gathering cards didn't him ?

shaz · Post by **shaz** » Thu Nov 04, 2004 3:35 pm

The best cover for me is Visions, since it represents the album in general really well..
creates the right atmosphere to begin with, if you know what I mean.
Infinite & Elements pt. 2 are - in my opinion - great too.

Reaper · Post by **Reaper** » Thu Nov 04, 2004 8:30 pm

Infinite & Elements Pt.2 ...for the general feeling...
