47. Madvillain: 'Madvillainy' (2004) - Enigmatic British born rapper MF Doom likes to keep his work secretive and collaborative. When in 2004 he teamed up with Madlib for the album 'Madvillainy' a suitable powerful cover was in order. Donning his trademark mask, Doom (MF stands for Metal Face) posed for a picture that looks somewhere between medieval warrior and a Stargate character. Doom is rumoured to be working with Madlib again at the moment so keep you eyes peeled for more mask action in 2010.

- Um, this is one of the WORST album covers of the 00s. Who made this list, a 12 year old boy who just got into Yes?

- Such an interesting cover! I agree very filmic, great photography from Storm Thorgerson!

- amazinggggggg cover of the greatest album of the decade

- No Opeth covers?! Other than that a good countdown

- I always wonder why there's a gas mask in one, a teddy bear in another etc. It's interesting.
